Patent number: 11954509Abstract: In a case where an active system virtual server detects stopping of a heartbeat received from a standby system virtual server, the active system virtual server notifies a coordination apparatus of the detection of the stopping of a heartbeat. In addition, the active system virtual server reports whether or not a service is operating to the coordination apparatus. The coordination apparatus instructs the standby system virtual server to restart the system in a case where the stopping of a heartbeat and the operation of a service are received. The standby system virtual server restarts the service, restarts an operating system, or restarts the operating system in a case where the restart of the service is not successful, in response to an instruction for restarting the system.Type: GrantFiled: April 23, 2019Date of Patent: April 9, 2024Assignee: Nippon Telegraph and Telephone CorporationInventors: Nobuo Onai, Naoyuki Tanji, Naoki Take, Kensuke Takahashi, Hiroyuki Tanaka, Hiroshi Kato, Hiroyuki Yazaki

Patent number: 7238175Abstract: A disposable diaper includes a basic absorbent batt structure and a supplementary absorbent batt structure placed thereon. An elastic member is provided between the two batt structures so as to transversely cross them. Contraction of the elastic member causes opposite side edge regions of the two batt structures to be pulled nearer to a longitudinal center line thereof. This results in a zone of the former batt structure underlying a distal end portion of the latter batt structure to curving downward with respect to a lower surface of the latter batt structure while the distal end portion of the latter batt structure curves upward with respect to a body facing surface of the basic absorbent batt structure. The curving of the batt structures forms a pocket opening from a front waist region toward a crotch region of the disposable diaper.Type: GrantFiled: February 26, 2002Date of Patent: July 3, 2007Assignee: Uni-Charm CorporationInventors: Kazuaki Onishi, Yasushi Sayama, Hiroyuki Tanji
