A storage controller allocates a real storage area to a virtual volume in chunk units each comprising a plurality of pages. In a case where load bias occurs between RAID groups, data reallocation is carried out. A real storage area inside a pool is allocated to a virtual volume 5 in accordance with a write access. A RAID group 6 comprises a plurality of chunks. Each chunk 7 comprises a plurality of pages 8. The pages 8, from within the chunk 7 that has been allocated to the virtual volume 5, are used. A data migration plan is created and stored in page units based on the load of each RAID group. When a host 2 issues a command to a migration-targeted page, data is migrated while this command is being processed.

The present invention provides methods and systems for integrating a procedural computational model with a declarative computational model. For example, in one aspect, the present invention provides a method for integrating a plurality of procedural instructions in a procedural computational system with a plurality of declarative rules in a declarative computational system. In such a method, for each of the procedural instructions operating on one or more variables, a hash table indexed by variable names is utilized to determine whether any of these variables participate in at least one of the declarative rules. Upon execution of a procedural instruction that changes a variable participating in a declarative rule, other variables associated with the rule are updated so as to maintain a relationship imposed by the rule among the variables. The updating of the other variables is performed prior to execution of other procedural instructions.

A method, apparatus, and computer instructions for improving performance and scalability of common information model object (CIMOM) by using a hardware management console (HMC) repository. The HMC repository includes storage of HMC objects, an HMC object model and a common interface (CIM Wrapper) for accessing to HMC objects.

The present invention is an algorithm that manages the ability of a user or software program to access certain protected file resources. This invention describes a method for file system security through techniques that control access to the file system resources using externally stored attributes. This invention accomplishes the described objectives in file system security by creating an external database containing auxiliary attributes for objects in the file system. During a file access attempt, an identifier of this file will be matched against a set of protected files in a security database. If that file is not in the database, there is not protection on the file and requester will be allowed to access the file. If a match does show that the file is protected there will be a determination as to whether the requester will be allowed access to the file. The basis for this access determination will be a set security rules defined in the external security attribute. This invention incorporates techniques and algorithms for attribute attachment, storage and organization of the associations to these attributes, and subsequent recognition of attached attributes. In this approach, the attributes would define authorization policy for controlling access to objects in the file system.

When they are the same as each other, a storage management unit stores the acquired state information by associating it with the patient identification information stored in the storage device.

Systems and methods for accurately and efficiently associating devices with a user profile and compiling use information from such devices are disclosed. Devices are associated with the same user profile based on identifying consistent proximity of the devices to one another, e.g., by identifying that the devices are frequently used in proximate locations during a time period or by identifying that the devices are paired with one another. Local devices, rather than a remote server, are used to more efficiently associate devices with the user profile and / or compile use information from such devices. Devices that are associated with the same user profile as a local collection device send use information to the local collection device. The information from all of the devices associated with the user profile is then shared locally with other devices associated with that user profile and sent to a remote collection server.
