Abstract: Methods, non-transitory machine readable media, and computing devices that more efficiently and effectively manage storage quota enforcement are disclosed. With this technology, a quota ticket comprising a tally generation number (TGN) and a local allowed usage amount (AUA) are obtained. The local AUA comprises a portion of a global AUA associated with a quota rule. The local AUA is increased following receipt of another portion of the global AUA in a response from a cluster peer, when another TGN in the response matches the TGN and the local AUA is insufficient to execute a received storage operation associated with the quota rule. The local AUA is decreased by an amount corresponding to, and following execution of, the storage operation, when the increased local AUA is sufficient to execute the storage operation.

Abstract: Various embodiments of the present application are directed towards an edge-exposure tool with a light emitting diode (LED), as well as a method for edge exposure using a LED. In some embodiments, the edge-exposure tool comprises a process chamber, a workpiece table, a LED, and a controller. The workpiece table is in the process chamber and is configured to support a workpiece covered by a photosensitive layer. The LED is in the process chamber and is configured to emit radiation towards the workpiece. A controller is configured to control the LED to expose an edge portion of the photosensitive layer, but not a center portion of the photosensitive layer, to the radiation emitted by the LED. The edge portion of the photosensitive layer extends along an edge of the workpiece in a closed path to enclose the center portion of the photosensitive layer.
