Abstract

See full text

Embodiments described herein can avoid such speed degradations caused by performance monitoring. According to one embodiment, a media drive monitoring device can issue a command that does not penetrate reservations at the drive. If the drive is reserved, the drive will return a reservation conflict (“RC”) or other status indicating the previous reservation. The monitoring device can continue to issue the command to the drive until the drive responds in a manner that indicates that it is no longer reserved. The monitoring appliance can then issue a command to collect information from the drive (e.g., the Log Sense command or other command).
