Abstract:
Provided are a computer program product, system, and method for using an access increment number to control a duration during which tracks remain in cache. Tracks in a storage in the cache are indicated in a cache list. For each of the tracks indicated in the cache list, an access value is updated when one of the tracks is accessed in the cache. An access to a track in the cache indicated in the cache list is received. A determination is made as to whether an access increment number for the accessed track, wherein the access increment number is greater than one. The access value for the accessed track is incremented by the determined access increment number in response to the track being accessed in the cache. The access value for one of the tracks is used to determine whether to initiate to demote the track from the cache.

Claim (Index 38):
A method for managing tracks in a storage in a cache, comprising:\n indicating tracks in the storage stored in the cache in a cache list; indicating for each of the tracks indicated in the cache list an access increment number receiving an application access increment number provided by an application for a track comprising one of a plurality of values used to control a duration during which the track is maintained in the cache; setting the access increment number indicated for the track to the application access increment number; in response to a request for a requested track in the cache, incrementing an access value for the requested track by the access increment number indicated for the track; and using an access value for a track in the cache to determine whether to demote the track from the cache.
