Selectively committing or rolling-back in-flight units of recovery is provided. An indicator is read in a transaction identifier information record corresponding to a unit of recovery that is in-flight. It is determined whether the indicator indicates a commit for the unit of recovery that is in-flight. In response determining that the indicator does indicate the commit for the unit of recovery that is in-flight, the unit of recovery that is in-flight corresponding to the transaction identifier information record is committed to form a committed unit of recovery. The committed unit of recovery corresponding to the transaction identifier information record is sent to a target system for further processing.

Memory, memory system, operation method of the memory, and operation of the memory system

A method for operating a memory includes determining to perform an error correction operation; determining whether to perform an error correction operation; generating an internal address when the error correction operation is performed; reading data from memory cells that are selected based on the internal address and an error correction code corresponding to the data; performing an error correction operation on the data based on the error correction code to produce an error-corrected data; writing the error-corrected data and an error correction code corresponding to the error-corrected data into the memory cells; determining one or more regions among regions in the memory as a repair-requiring region based on an error detected when the error correction operation is performed; receiving a first command; backing up the data and the error correction code into a redundant region in response to the first command; and repairing the repair-requiring region with the redundant region.

Multiple data labels within a backup system

Embodiments for a method performing data migration such as backups and restores in a network by identifying characteristics of data in a data saveset to separate the data into defined types based on respective characteristics, assigning a data label to each defined type by receiving user selection or automatically merging or selecting a priority label, from among many labels associated with a file, defining migration rules for each data label, discovering assigned labels during a migration operation; and applying respective migration rules to labeled data in the data saveset. The migration rules can dictate storage location, access rights, replication periods, retention periods, and similar parameters.

Non-volatile storage device having fast boot code transfer with low speed fallback

A storage system comprises a non-volatile memory configured to store boot code and a control circuit connected to the non-volatile memory. In response to a first request from a host to transmit the boot code, the storage system commences transmission of the boot code to the host at a first transmission speed. Before successfully completing the transmission of the boot code to the host at the first transmission speed, it is determined the boot code transmission has failed. Therefore, the host will issue a second request for the boot code. In response to the second request for the boot code, and recognizing that this is a fallback condition because the previous transmission of the boot code failed, the storage apparatus re-transmits the boot code to the host at a lower transmission speed than the first transmission speed.
