Statistical monitoring of data channels for enhanced data recovery performance

摘要

Reading data from a data channel. The data channel is received by an input, and at least one data path processes the data channel to read data from the data channel. The data path is characterized by a plurality of data path parameters, and the data read may be successful or unsuccessful. A processor updates a log entry for the data if the data read was successful, wherein the log entry stores information related to the data path parameters that have produced successful data reads.
