ABSTRACT:
An information memory apparatus which has a single magnetic tape shared with a plurality of users or a plurality of tasks. At least one information recording medium is provided with a plurality of logical volumes. Each of the logical volumes stores a set of information and is defined as a single physical volume. A recording/reproducing unit records input information on the information recording medium and/or reproduces output information from the information recording medium. A staging device stages and destages the input information to be recorded on the information recording medium and/or the output information reproduced from the information recording medium by the recording/reproducing unit. The staging device is controlled so that the staging device stages and destages the input information and/or the output information in accordance with loading and unloading of the recording/reproducing unit.
