| 20090119452 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR A SHARABLE STORAGE DEVICE - Systems and methods for sharable tape devices are presented. More particularly, embodiments of a virtual tape server may automatically create a virtual tape device for an identified host such that hosts may interact with corresponding virtual tape devices. Thus, rather than having multiple hosts share a limited number of virtual tape devices, each host may interact with a virtual tape device corresponding only to that host (or a limited number of hosts), allowing substantially simultaneous interactions to take place between multiple hosts and multiple virtual tape devices and substantially alleviating the need of an application on a particular host to take into account other hosts or other applications when scheduling operations. | 05-07-2009 |
