DATA FAILURE PROCESSING APPARATUS AND DATA FAILURE PROCESSING METHOD

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a data failure processing apparatus and a data failure processing method that actualize processor relief while avoiding repetitive fault occurrence.SOLUTION: The data failure processing apparatus includes a processor 3 which accesses data stored in a storage device having an error correcting function. The storage device imparts an error correction code to data during data supply. A fault identification unit 302 identifies whether a fault occurs to the data supplied from the storage device based upon the error correction code. A previous evaluation unit 305 issues a previous evaluation request such that an address in which data having an uncorrectable fault is stored is accessed again. A relief propriety determination unit 306 determines whether processor relief can be made according to the issue result of the previous evaluation request. A fault processing unit 307 performs fault handling processing according to a determination of the relief propriety determination unit.
