20100332861 | MANAGING POWER COMSUMPTION IN A DATA STORAGE SYSTEM - A method for managing power consumption in a data storage system is provided. The method comprises receiving a first input/output (I/O) request identifying an I/O operation to be performed by a storage device; delaying scheduling of the first I/O request to manage amount of power consumed by servicing the first I/O request; and forwarding the first I/O request to a storage controller associated with the storage device. The storage controller schedules the first I/O request using a scheduling mechanism, and the storage device services the first I/O request according to the scheduling mechanism. | 12-30-2010 |
20100332871 | CAPPING POWER CONSUMPTION IN A DATA STORAGE SYSTEM - A method for capping power consumption in a data storage system is provided. The method comprises associating a power quota with a first storage medium, wherein the power quota limits amount of power consumed by the first storage medium within a given time interval; receiving a request to perform an input/output (I/O) operation on the first storage medium; and servicing the request within power limits defined by the power quota. | 12-30-2010 |
20110145534 | EFFICIENT LOADING OF DATA INTO MEMORY OF A COMPUTING SYSTEM - A method for deploying one or more virtual machines on a host computing system is provided. The method comprises receiving mapping information from a data storage system. The mapping information associates a first data chunk stored in the data storage system with a unique identifier to support deployment of a first virtual machine on a host computing system. Once the mapping information is received, the mapping information is utilized to determine whether any copies of the first data chunk have already been loaded into a memory of the host computing system in association with deployment of the first virtual machine or a second virtual machine on the host computing system. If no copies of the first data chunk have already been loaded into the memory, the first data chunk is retrieved from the data storage system, loaded into the memory, and utilized to deploy the first virtual machine on the host computing system. | 06-16-2011 |
20120198254 | CAPPING POWER CONSUMPTION IN A DATA STORAGE SYSTEM - A method for capping power consumption in a data storage system is provided. The method comprises associating a power quota with a first storage medium, wherein the power quota limits amount of power consumed by the first storage medium within a given time interval; receiving a request to perform an input/output (I/O) operation on the first storage medium; and servicing the request within power limits defined by the power quota. | 08-02-2012 |

20110286130 | ENERGY-SAVING OPERATION OF A STORAGE DEVICE - A computer implemented method is disclosed, for energy-saving operation of a storage device with a read/write head. The method includes monitoring workload of the storage device, calculating current mean workload and adjusting seek speed of the read/write head of the storage device to one of a plurality seek speeds depending on the calculated current mean workload. The step of adjusting the seek speed of the read/write head includes adjusting the seek speed of the read/write head to be a first seek speed if the calculated current mean workload is below a first threshold, adjusting the seek speed of the read/write head to be a second seek speed if the calculated current mean workload is between the first threshold and a second threshold, and adjusting the seek speed of the read/write head to be the first seek speed if the calculated current mean workload is greater than the second threshold. A computer program product and a data processing system are also disclosed. | 11-24-2011 |
20120131575 | DEVICE EMULATION IN A VIRTUALIZED COMPUTING ENVIRONMENT - Systems and methods for optimizing operation of a physical device in a virtualized computing environment are provided. The method comprises monitoring instructions issued by an application running on a virtual machine's (VM) operating system, wherein the VM is hosted by a hypervisor providing access to a physical device connected to a virtualized computing environment; wherein a device driver supported by the operating system issues one or more instructions to an emulated device supported by the hypervisor to control the physical device according to the issued instructions, wherein the emulated device's registers are implemented in memory of the hypervisor and the instructions issued by the device driver are stored in said registers, wherein the hypervisor handles the instructions, in response to learning that the instructions are stored in said registers. | 05-24-2012 |
