Methodology For Manipulation Of Sata Device Access Cycles

US Patent:
20080005410, Jan 3, 2008
Filed:
Mar 30, 2006
Appl. No.:
11/395648
Inventors:
Carl Mies - Costa Mesa CA, US
Bruce Warren - Costa Mesa CA, US
William Goodwin - Costa Mesa CA, US
Lawrence Shiihara - Costa Mesa CA, US
Assignee:
Emulex Design & Manufacturing Corporation - Costa Mesa CA
International Classification:
G06F 13/38
US Classification:
710062000
Abstract:
Controlling accesses to target devices such as disk drives by modifying the duty cycle profile of those devices to improve device reliability is disclosed. The utilization of a target device is monitored, and if a device is being overused, that device is given a rest period by reserving it for a special initiator that does not send any commands to the device for a certain period of time. This reduced utilization has the effect of increasing the reliability of the target device. This period of time also adds a delay to the processing of commands for the target device being overutilized so that the device becomes less responsive. This performance penalty creates pressure on system administrators to reduce the number of commands sent to that target device and/or move data to proper devices (that can handle the high number of accesses).
