Abstract: A method for accessing a storage device, the method includes: receiving, by storage device, a block based storage access command and cryptographically secured access control information; wherein the block based storage access command and the cryptographically secured access control information are associated with at least one fixed size block of data and with a client; processing at least a portion of the cryptographically secured access control information by using a secret key accessible to the storage device and to a security entity; and selectively executing the block based storage access command in response to a result of the processing.

Abstract: Provided are a method, system, and program for managing a relationship between one target volume and one source volume. For each of the source volume and target volume, the memory includes: (i) at least one element, wherein each element represents a range of sequential data units in the volume; (ii) at least one relationship entry, wherein each relationship entry represents one relationship; (iii) at least one element pointer associating one element with one relationship entry, wherein the data units represented by the element are part of the relationship represented by the relationship entry that the pointer associates with the element; and (iv) one relationship pointer for each relationship entry associating the relationship entry with volume metadata, wherein the volume metadata provides information on the relationship represented by the relationship entry.

Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method, a system and a program for managing the relationship between one target volume and one source volume.
SOLUTION: By at least one element representing a range of a sequential data unit in a volume, at least one relation item representing one relation, and at least one element pointer associating one element with one relation item, information related to an existing relationship between at least one source volume and one target volume is maintained in a memory. Further, when a new relationship between at least one target volume and at least one source volume is added, a new relation item representing the new relationship is added in the memory. Also, one new element pointer for each element is added so as to associate the new relation item with each element including a data unit included in the new relationship.

Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method, system, and product for copying a storage.
SOLUTION: Copying operation is carried out on a source source device for copying to a target storage device. In this copying operation, a consistent copy of the source storage device is prepared on the target storage device. While copying operation for copying from one source storage device to one target storage device is performed, writing operation is restricted not to be performed on the one source storage device until the copying operation on the source storage device is completed.

Abstract: Provided are a method, system, and program for managing a relationship between one target volume and one source volume. Information is maintained in memory on an existing relationship between at least one source volume and at least one target volume, comprising: (i) at least one element, wherein each element represents a range of sequential data units in the volume; (ii) at least one relationship entry, wherein each relationship entry represents one relationship; and (iii) at least one element pointer associating one element with one relationship entry, wherein the data units represented by the element are part of the relationship represented by the relationship entry that the pointer associates with the element. A new relationship between at least one target volume and at least one source volume is added. Further, added is a new relationship entry in the memory representing the new relationship and one new element pointer is added in the memory for each element including data units included in the new relationship to associate the element with the new relationship entry, wherein the data units represented by the element are part of the new relationship.
