    Abstract: Addressing failure is handled in a nodal system of processor nodes, which comprise at least one processor and at least one interface to a network. Upon detection of a node address failure of a processor node for the network, such as lack of a node address, or presence of a duplicate address, the processor node is disabled from the network, thereby temporarily failing the processor node so that the system remains operational. An alternate node address stored in nonvolatile memory may be selected that avoids the node address failure.

    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To design a tape library or other types of data storage libraries, that have angled rails and accessors compatible with the angled rails. SOLUTION: Data storage libraries that are equipped with accessors that turn upon angled rails are provided. In the library, a first rail and a second rail form an angle. The first and second rails each have a drive surface, but the drive surfaces are on different vertical planes. A switching mechanism of the accessors is then configured to move a drive mechanism between the different vertical planes of the drive surfaces. If the switching mechanism positions the drive mechanism adjacent to the drive surface of the first rail, then the drive mechanism engages the drive surface of the first rail to move the accessor along the first rail. If the switching mechanism switches the position of the drive mechanism adjacent to the drive surface of the second rail, then the drive mechanism engages the drive surface of the second rail to move the accessor along the second rail.

    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a system and a method for automatically providing a frame count, a frame identification, and state information to respective frames in a modular multi-frame tape library system.
    SOLUTION: Signals 20 having delay values specified by the respective frames are generated by the respective frames and fed to the respective frames for determining the total number of the frames in the tape library system. Reference pulses are generated by the respective frames and compared with delay signals generated by the respective frames. State signals are generated by the respective frames and fed to the respective frames. The state signals are adapted to pulse generators, delay signal generators 12, and state registers 14, and the respective frames are connected to each other along a multi-channel bus 16 carrying the signals generated by the respective frames.

    Abstract: In an automated library, data cartridges, such as magnetic tape cartridges, are stored in storage cells and accessed by data storage drives. An accessor with a gripper transports cartridges between storage cells and storage drives. Cartridges are prioritized according to their relative importance. A processor manages the placement of the cartridges in cells by having higher priority cartridges stored closer to the front of multi-cartridge cells than cartridges with a lower priority. Cartridges with a higher priority may also be stored closer to a storage drive than cartridges with a lower priority. A pusher may be used to push cartridges towards the front of multi-cartridge cells with an empty position to enable the gripper to reach the front cartridge.

    Abstract: An optical head for an optical signal recorder includes a nonpolarizing beam combiner for combining the light beams from two like-frequency, sic wavelength, lasers along one light path. The combined beams travel slightly diverging paths so that a first one of the beams can record signals on a disk while a second beam follows the first beam on the disk for direct reading-after-recording. Intermediate the combiner and the disk are a polarization type beam splitter and a focuser. One or more detectors receive reflected light from the disk via the beam splitter for detecting focus, sensed recorded signals and for tracking the beams to tracks or the disk. The combiner and splitter are preferably secured together as a single unit. The combiner uses refraction and internal reflection properties to combine the two like-frequency beams without polarization changes of either beam.

    Abstract: A carriage with a cell carrier engages and retains a vertically driven cell so that the cell and its contents, such as a data storage cartridge, may be moved laterally from one linear library to another. A portal engagement device of the cell carrier includes a movable rack so that a pinion of the cell may move up or down the rack, and has pins that, when the device is down, engage a library vertical portal having a fixed rack. A cam state machine of the cell carrier guides a spring loaded cam follower hook of the cell in a pattern to lock the hook in position and, when hooked, attempted downward movement of the vertically driven cell moves the portal engagement device upward to disengage the pins of the portal engagement device from the vertical portal. The carriage may then transport the cell to another vertical portal.
