ABSTRACT:
The disclosure relates to demotion of data to a backing store (disk storage apparatus--DASD) from a random access cache in a peripheral data storage system. A cache replacement control list, such as a least recently used (LRU) list is scanned in a soon-to-be replaced first portion (portion closest to LRU entry) to identify first data to be demoted. Then the control list is scanned in first and second portions to identify further data to be demoted with the first data as a single group of data. In DASD, such data is all storable in the same cylinder of the DASD.
