Abstract: in a multi-tiered system, a read temperature classification and write temperature classification per virtual block (vlb) can be determined based on the content referenced by each vlb. the temperature classifications of vlbs can be determined using temperature scales which map read and write activity levels to corresponding temperature classifications. the temperature scales can have classification boundaries adjusted based on feedback of operations performed including down-tiering, garbage collection, and compaction and appending. in one use case, a number of free blocks in a high-performance first tier can be below a minimum and processing can be performed to locate a source block of the first tier partially filled with hot content, store the hot content contiguously on a target block of the first tier, flush write data from a log, and store the write data on the target block by appending the write data to the existing hot content.

IPC Code(s): G06F3/06
Abstract: data is migrated. for instance, in response to detection of a failed group in a drive of groups comprising respective blocks, it is determined whether the total number of groups in the drive that have failed is less than a predetermined threshold. data associated with the failed group is migrated to a reserved group in a reserved space of the drive according to a determination that the total number is less than the predetermined threshold; and a read/write (i/o) request to the failed group is redirected to the reserved group based on a mapping relationship from the failed group to the reserved group. consequently, data does not need to be repaired on an entire drive due to one failed write request and replacing the drive is avoided, thereby saving resources, time and labor, and improving the impact of the failed write request on the performance of a storage system.

Abstract: storage processes are described. for instance, dumping of cache data in a memory table at a source directory table partition in a source container group is stopped in response to receiving a close signal. a notification for creating a target directory table partition is sent to a target container group, the notification including a checkpoint at the source directory table partition. the cache data in the memory table is sent to the target container group, and the source container group is closed in response to a determination that an ownership of the target directory table partition is updated to the target container group. a rescheduling and/or upgrading solution is thus proposed for a source container group, so that the source container group is still in a service state during the rescheduling and/or upgrading solution, which improves the performance of storage services and reduces the data unavailable time.

Abstract: an embedded controller (ec) of an information handling system is configured to detect and respond to anomalous conditions in which a pre-boot or runtime error has occurred and ec-local storage resources are not sufficient to store ec telemetry data, by redirecting the ec telemetry data through an available communication channel, e.g., sbios mbox packets or acpi mmio, to offload the data to ec-external storage such as an esp partition or cloud storage. in a pre-boot mode, sbios may invoke a uefi storage driver to write out ec log data to ec-external storage, e.g., ssd/nvme device or the cloud. in a runtime mode, the ec may be flagged by an os bugcheck handler, e.g., via espi mmio path, to save the log data. in an os-context mode, acpi methods may notify a persistent driver, e.g., common platform services (cps) driver, to write out the log to the ec-external storage.

Abstract: a disaster recovery site storage array causes an instance of a host application or selected executables running on a host server to validate changes to an asynchronously updated replica of a storage object. snapshots of the replica are generated before and after each set of changes to the replica are received from a remote storage array. validation is performed by mounting snapshots to the instance of the associated host application and causing the host application instance to validate the data. if a snapshot is determined to be invalid, then the replica to recovered with the most recent known-valid snapshot. alternatively, if each set of changes is validated prior to being applied to the replica, invalid changes are not applied to the replica. unvalidated snapshots may be accumulated and validated independently from application of sets of changes to the replica, thereby decoupling validation from replication.

Abstract: methods and systems for managing the operation of data processing systems are disclosed. a data processing system may include a computing device that may provide computer implemented services. to provide the computer implemented services, hardware components of the data processing system may need to operate in predetermined manners. to manage the operation of the hardware components, the data processing system may heat them when their temperatures fall outside of thermal operating ranges. to mitigate some risk associated with heating, the data processing system may proactively calibrate temperature sensors used to guide the heating process.
