Patent number: 7734643Abstract: A method for distributively storing a data object on a data storage system includes determining a layout map ID and associating the layout map ID with the data object. The layout map ID is used in determining a layout map, and the layout map is used in determining a layout given a current configuration of the data storage system. The data object is fragmented into data fragments and parity fragments, and the data fragments and parity fragments are distributively stored on data storage system in accordance with the layout.Type: GrantFiled: June 30, 2004Date of Patent: June 8, 2010Assignee: Oracle America, Inc.Inventors: Steven Richard Waterhouse, Sherif M. Botros, Olaf Manczak, Patrick Gates, Jeremy Werner, Sacha Arnoud

Patent number: 7552356Abstract: In accordance with the invention, a data storage system for fixed content includes one or more peer node computer systems interconnected by a storage system network, where each peer node computer system includes a symmetric storage system application and locally attached storage. A data object is distributively stored on one or more of the one or more peer node computer systems and identified using a unique object identifier. A data object is flexibly stored on the data storage system according to external criteria. Stored data objects are accessible from any of the one or more peer node computer systems. Applications can be executed on the data storage system using data objects that are stored on, being written to, or being read from the data storage system to generate results accessible by a user.Type: GrantFiled: October 12, 2004Date of Patent: June 23, 2009Assignee: Sun Microsystems, Inc.Inventors: Steven Richard Waterhouse, Yaroslav Faybishenko, Sherif M. Botros

Patent number: 7328303Abstract: In accordance with the invention, a data storage system for storing and retrieving fixed data content includes: a storage system network; one or more peer node computer systems interconnected by the storage system network; and at least one disklet stored on at least one of the one or more peer node computer systems, the disklet for execution on the data storage system using data that are stored on, being written to, or being read from the data storage system. In one embodiment, a disklet includes executable program code and a disklet interface that permits the program code of the disklet to be loaded on to the data storage system and executed on the data storage system by a user.Type: GrantFiled: June 30, 2004Date of Patent: February 5, 2008Assignee: Sun Microsystems, Inc.Inventors: Steven Richard Waterhouse, Sherif M.

Patent number: 7299325Abstract: A method includes determining a garbage collection list for a data storage structure of a node in a data storage system, the garbage collection list including one or more layout map identifiers (IDs) for garbage collection. A data fragment stored on the data storage structure is located at a first location and a layout map ID associated with the data fragment is determined. A determination is made whether the layout map ID associated with the data fragment matches a layout map ID for garbage collection in the garbage collection list. If the layout map ID associated with the data fragment matches a layout map ID for garbage collection in the garbage collection list, a determination is made whether the data fragment is present at a second location on the data storage system. If the data fragment is present at a second location on the data storage system, the data fragment at the first location is determined to be a garbage fragment and deleted from the data storage system.Type: GrantFiled: August 24, 2005Date of Patent: November 20, 2007Assignee: Sun Microsystems, Inc.Inventors: Steven Richard Waterhouse, Sherif M. Botros, Olaf Manczak, Patrick Gates, Jeremy Werner, Sacha Arnoud

Patent number: 7296180Abstract: A method for recovery of data objects on a data storage system includes determining a list of layout map IDs that place data objects on a node of a data storage system. For each layout map ID, a list of object IDs associated with each of the data objects assigned the layout map ID is determined. For each object ID, a list of data object fragments associated with the object ID is determined. A determination is made whether each of the data object fragments is present on the node. If a data object fragment is not present on the node, the data object fragment is reconstructed on the data storage system. The method can be automatically implemented by each of one or more operational nodes of a distributed data storage system at configured time intervals, and/or upon the operational loss of a data storage structure of a node, or a node.Type: GrantFiled: June 30, 2004Date of Patent: November 13, 2007Assignee: Sun Microsystems, Inc.Inventors: Steven Richard Waterhouse, Sherif M.
