Patent number: 8812913Abstract: A method for maintaining reliable communication on a link between an expander and a storage device is provided. The method includes detecting, by a processor coupled to the link, an error corresponding to the link, and maintaining a count of detected errors for the link, by the processor. The method also includes determining, by the processor, if the count of detected errors is above a first error threshold. If the count of detected errors is not above the first error threshold, then the method repeats the detecting, maintaining, and determining steps. If the count of detected errors is above the first error threshold, then the method provides the processor placing the storage device into a segregated zone.Type: GrantFiled: September 23, 2011Date of Patent: August 19, 2014Assignee: Dot Hill Systems CorporationInventor: Phillip Raymond Colline

Publication number: 20030168225Abstract: Fire suppressant apparatus comprises a container (11) which may be spherical or cylindrical with domed ends, housing a liquid such as water in an interior chamber (25) and having low pressure nozzles (19, 20) housed in recesses covered by caps or covers (26, 27). A gas generator (22) is also located within the chamber (25) and contains a stable combustible material (21) which can be ignited by an ignitor (26) triggered by a sensor (28). The gas generated by combustion of the material (21) drives the water out through the nozzles (19, 20) to form fine droplets the majority of which are in the region of 50 &mgr;m without creating a high pressure within the chamber (25). The burn time of the gas generator material is 15 to 20 seconds so that a mist or fog lasting at least this duration is generated in the protected environment and can be carried to the seat of a fire by convection currents within this environment.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 29, 2003Publication date: September 11, 2003Inventors: Phillip Raymond Michael Denne, John Russell Prewer
