Abstract: A seal member includes an annular fitting part and an annular dust lip. The fitting part fits on an inner circumference of a tubular member. The dust lip extends from the fitting part toward a side opposite from the tubular member such that a diameter of an inner circumference of the dust lip gradually decreases, and a distal end portion of the dust lip slides on an outer circumferential surface of a shaft member. A metal insert includes a reinforcing ring and a reinforcing extension piece. The reinforcing ring stands along the inner circumference of the tubular member. The reinforcing extension piece extends from the reinforcing ring toward a side opposite from the tubular member, and inclines such that a distal end of the reinforcing extension piece approaches the shaft member. The reinforcing ring is arranged in the fitting part, whereas the reinforcing extension piece is arranged in the dust lip.

Abstract: This invention provides a computer that, on the basis of identifying information for virtual ports for virtual machines in logical partitions, allows per-virtual-machine access control for storage systems. Said computer, which connects to said storage systems, has the following: hardware resources including processors, physical memory, and an I/O adapter; and a first hypervisor that logically divides said hardware resources into one or more logical partitions. Upon receiving an instruction to issue an I/O command to a logical unit of a storage system from a first virtual machine in a first logical partition, the I/O adapter transmits, to said storage system, an I/O command containing first identifying information that identifies a first virtual port for the first virtual machine.

Abstract: A sparingly water-soluble plant quality improver characterized by containing a polyvalent metal, an organic acid having a carboxylic group, an alkali metal and/or ammonia, and phosphate ions and/or carbonate ions. The sparingly water-soluble plant quality improver inhibits or alleviates physiological disorders of plants and further has the function of improving qualities of the plants, such as sugar content and acidity. It is also characterized in that it causes little fruit surface soiling to heighten the merchandice value, and that it is lowly phytotoxic and highly safe.
