Tape drive buffer utilization |
摘要 |
Records or filemarks read from data segments are aggregated into at least one single data segment. The records and the filemarks are padded at an end of the one single data segment, such that the padding of the end of the one single data segment is less than padding of the one of the records and filemarks in the plurality of data segments. |

1. A method for improving tape drive efficiency using a processor device, the method comprising:
aggregating one of records and filemarks, the aggregating restricted to being performed only on read operations, from a plurality of data segments into at least one single data segment, including padding an end of the at least one single data segment, wherein the padding of the end of the at least one single data segment is less than padding of the one of the records and filemarks in the plurality of data segments. |
