A disk drive testing system cooling circuit includes a plurality of test racks. Each of the test racks include a test slot compartment and a test electronics compartment. Each of the test slot compartments includes multiple test slots, and one or more cooling conduits configured to convey a cooling liquid toward the test slots. Each of the test electronics compartments includes test electronics configured to communicate with the test slots for executing a test algorithm, and a heat exchanger in fluid communication with the one or more cooling conduits. The heat exchanger is configured to cool an air flow directed toward the test electronics.

Temperature control within disk drive testing systems

A storage device processing system that includes at least one automated transporter, at least one rack accessible by the at least one automated transporter, and multiple test slots housed by the at least one rack. Each test slot is configured to receive a storage device for testing. The storage device processing system includes a conveyor arranged in a loop around and being accessible by the at least one automated transporter. The conveyor receives and transports the storage device thereon. The at least one automated transporter is configured to transfer the storage device between the conveyor and one of the test slots of the at least one rack.

Processing Storage Devices

A disk drive testing system includes at least one robotic arm defining a first axis substantially normal to a floor surface. The robotic arm is operable to rotate through a predetermined arc about and extend radially from the first axis. Multiple racks are arranged around the robotic arm for servicing by the robotic arm. Each rack houses multiple test slots that are each configured to receive a disk drive transporter configured to carry a disk drive for testing.

In one embodiment, a system for managing a virtualization environment comprises a plurality of host machines, one or more virtual disks comprising a plurality of storage devices, a virtualized file server (VFS) comprising a plurality of file server virtual machines (FSVMs), wherein each of the FSVMs is running on one of the host machines and conducts I/O transactions with the one or more virtual disks, and a virtualized file server backup system configured to back up data stored in a VFS located a cluster of host machines to an object store, and retrieve the backed-up data as needed to restore the data in the VFS. The object store may be located in a public cloud. The object store may include a low-cost storage medium within the cluster. An FSVM of the VFS may provide an object store interface to low-cost storage media.

Virtualized file server backup to cloud

A method of supplying disk drives to a disk drive testing system includes placing a disk drive tote, carrying multiple disk drives, in a presentation position accessible to an automated transporter of the disk drive testing system. The method includes actuating the automated transporter to retrieve one of the disk drives from the disk drive tote, and actuating the automated transporter to deliver the retrieved disk drive to a test slot of the disk drive testing system and insert the disk drive in the test slot.

Bulk Feeding Disk Drives to Disk Drive Testing Systems

A test system is described for testing a media drive, such as a tape drive. The test system includes a host emulator, a storage library emulator, and a control system. The host emulator communicates with a first interface of the media drive and mimics a host system to the media drive. The storage library emulator communicates with a second interface of the media drive and mimics a storage library system to the media drive. When in operation, one of the host emulator and the storage library emulator transmits a test message to the media drive responsive to an instruction from the control system. Responsive to the test message, one of the emulators receives a test response from the media drive and transmits the test response to the control system. The control system processes the test message and the test response to evaluate the performance of the media drive.

Test systems for media drives of data storage systems

In one general embodiment, a computer-implemented method is provided. The computer-implemented method includes identifying a first object in a tiered storage system, and identifying first metadata associated with the first object. The computer-implemented method also includes identifying a second object utilizing the first metadata of the first object. The second object is associated with second metadata. Moreover, the computer-implemented method includes, in response to an access of the first object, modifying a heat value associated with the second object.

Predictive object tiering based on object metadata

An apparatus, system, and method are disclosed for simulating multiple hosts. An object module creates a plurality of host object instances. Each host object instance simulates a host to a storage device connection. In addition, each host object instance includes a unique identifier. A traffic generator serially establishes communications between each host object instance and a storage device using the unique identifier. The traffic generator serially establishes communications until a number of host object instances in communication with the storage device is greater than a host threshold. A verification module verifies that the storage device established communications with each host object instance according to a specified connection protocol. The verification module communicates a pass if each host object instance communication is verified.

Apparatus, system, and method for simulating multiple hosts

A computed-implemented method is provided for generating object storage datasets from file datasets. The computed-implemented method includes analyzing entries of a file system to identify a file and checking the file against at least one policy. In response to identifying a match between the file and the at least one policy, details of a container are updated. A symbolic link to the file is created to allow access of the file by an object-based client. Updating the details of the container includes updating a database such that the database identifies at least one of the created symbolic link and the details of the container.

System and methods for dynamic generation of object storage datasets from existing file datasets

In one embodiment, a computer program product includes a computer readable storage medium having program instructions embodied therewith. The embodied program instructions are executable by a processor to cause the processor to receive, by the processor, a first job request, and analyze, by the processor, the first job request to determine: an estimated complexity of the first job request based on one or more attributes of the first job request and a user skill level of a user that submitted the first job request. Moreover, the embodied program instructions are executable by the processor to admit, by the processor, the first job request to a data analytics system and/or a data storage system in a specified order with respect to other received job requests based on at least: the estimated complexity of the first job request, and the user skill level of the user that submitted the first job request.
