Backup, Recovery and Archiving of Files in a Multi-Access Computing System
General-purpose multi-access computing systems with files
stored on random-access devices require that these files be protected.
If the total on-line storage is inadequate there is a need for wellorganized
off-line storage. This thesis discusses the management
problems involved in handling backup and archive copies of files.
In Part I we review what a number of systems, including
the Edinburgh Multi-Access System (EMAS), have achieved. We
also consider the influences of hardware and other forms of computing
system.
In Part II we return to EMAS and propose a design and an
implementation to provide comprehensive facilities, for backup
copies of files and recovery of them, and also for archive storage
