StorHouse/SM Performance Features
Uses a disk performance buffer that provides
fast access to the most frequently accessed data and enables
extremely fast ingest rates
Manages removable volumes and MAID spin-cycles
to optimize performance, minimize volume access delays, and
reduce library and drive operations
Performs pre-emptive priority processing of
transaction-oriented, time-sensitive requests
Stages data from alternative storage (for example,
tape) to the performance buffer for faster access
Supports look-ahead queuing to satisfy current
requests for a spinning MAID disk or a mounted volume before
spinning down or dismounting it
Retains the most frequently accessed volumes
in a library device to keep them readily available
Promotes high availability, data protection,
and load balancing for better performance by duplexing (copying)
data to separate libraries and media types
Reports system statistics graphically with a
GUI-based performance monitoring tool
