Patent number: 10990468Abstract: A computing system that can maintain reliability required of a storage program while causing the storage program to operate on an operating system (OS) is provided. A processor of the computing system executes an OS controlling a hardware device and a storage program operating on the OS and using the hardware device via the OS. The OS identifies an error status of the hardware device when receiving a notification of an error that has occurred to the hardware device, and notifies the storage program that operates on the OS of the error status when the error status satisfies a predetermined condition. The storage program determines error handling on the hardware device on the basis of the error status, and requests the OS to perform the determined error handling. The OS performs the determined error handling on the hardware device.Type: GrantFiled: March 14, 2016Date of Patent: April 27, 2021Assignee: HITACHI, LTD.Inventors: Akihiko Araki, Masakuni Agetsuma, Sachie Tajima, Takanobu Suzuki, Masanori Takada

Patent number: 10884924Abstract: A storage system receives a write request which specifies a logical volume address associated with a RAID group, and makes a first determination whether write target data in accordance with the write request exists in a cache memory. When the first determination result is negative, the storage system makes a second determination whether at least one of one or more conditions is met, the condition being that random write throughput performance is expected to increase by asynchronous de-staging processing of storing the write target data in the RAID group asynchronously to write processing performed in response to the write request. When the second determination result is negative, the storage system selects, for the write request, synchronous storage processing, which is processing of storing the write target data in the RAID group in the write processing and for which a load on a processor is lower than the asynchronous de-staging processing.Type: GrantFiled: March 4, 2015Date of Patent: January 5, 2021Assignee: HITACHI, LTD.Inventors: Shintaro Ito, Akira Yamamoto, Ryosuke Tatsumi, Takanobu Suzuki
