Virtual file management system and its system configuration establishing and file access method

Abstract

A virtual file management system comprises a file request management unit, an information memory bank, a file designation space management unit and a file access management unit, wherein the file request management unit is used to receive file access requests sent by a user end, and to return the processing results of the file access requests. The information memory bank is used to store the datastructure of the virtual file management system, the file designation space management unit is used to inquire the address and path content of files in the information memory bank according to the file access requests, and the access management unit is used to access files according to the address and the path content of the files.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a virtual file management system, and in particular to a virtual file management system and its system configuration establishment and file access method. Background technique [0002] Due to the advancement of digital technology, the life style of human beings has gradually transformed into a digital life style. Therefore, there are many important data and information in daily life, and a large number of them are stored in digital form. With the popularization and vigorous development of the Internet, the digital information owned by everyone is growing exponentially, which makes the space demand of digital storage devices also show a substantial growth. [0003] With the advancement of digital storage technology, the storage capacity of storage devices is getting larger and larger, making more users accustomed to storing all their digital data on storage devices. However, the increase in the capacity of storage devic...

Problems solved by technology

This reference object is a specially designed file system object, and records the name of the reference object and the index value for accessing the reference object record table. Therefore, the file server must be modified during the implementation of these two patents

On the other hand, the reference object and the reference object record table must be set and maintained by the system administrator, which will increase the management burden

[0008] In addition, the above two patents require an agent program to be installed on the client computer and related settings to be performed. The agent program is used to read the reference object information responded by the file server and to perform necessary operations in the reference object record table. Query operations, therefore, will place an additional burden on the consumer

In addition, because the agent program on the client computer needs to be remounted continuously to access files on different servers, this will also increase the burden on the system during operation
