Abstract: This disclosure is directed to generator systems and methods for monitoring a direct current bus and automatically operating in response to a power level of the direct current bus dropping below a desired power level or to a threshold before dropping below the power level. The automatic operation of the generator system may raise or keep the actual power level of the system above the desired power level or threshold.

Abstract: In order to avoid writing duplicates of blocks of data into a storage platform, any virtual disk within the storage platform may have a de-duplication feature enabled. Or, all virtual disks have this feature enabled. For virtual disks with de-duplication enabled, a unique message digest is calculated for every block of data written to that virtual disk. Upon a write, these message digests are consulted in order to determine if a particular block of data has already been written, if so, it is not written again, and if not, it is written. All de-duplication virtual disks are written to a single system virtual disk within the storage platform. De-duplication occurs over the entire storage platform and over all its virtual disks because all message digests are consulted before a write is performed for any virtual disk. A read for a de-duplication virtual desk reads from the system virtual disk.

Abstract: A network appliance or smart switch can include service devices as well as a switching device such as those used in high-speed switches having limited processing ability and are stateless with respect to sessions. Service devices can provide stateful and complex processing. A first exposed port of a switching device can receive network packets and can determine which network packets the service devices are to process to produce processed network packets. A network packet can be sent to a service device in a redirected packet. A processed network packet can be received from a service device in a reinjected packet that is used to recover a port identifier of the first exposed port. The port identifier can be used to determine a network destination of the processed network packet. The processed network packet can be sent from a second exposed port of the switching device toward the network destination.
