Abstract: When service requirements require moving of services registered with an object request broker (ORB) at a source server, continuity of service to service requests from clients may be provided by queuing the service requests at the source server. A server context with the same GUID as a source server context may be established at a destination server. URLs for the moved services may be registered with a destination ORB which may then begin receiving service requests. The source server may then respond to the queued service requests with respective URLs for the services registered at the destination ORB. Endpoints at the clients may be updated with the new URLs prior to resending the service requests. The movement of the ORB to the destination server may thus be transparent to the client application.

Abstract: Disclosed are methods, media, and vault servers for providing a secure messaging system using vault servers in conjunction with client-side restricted-execution vault-mail environments. Methods include the steps of upon activating a vault-mail message containing sensitive content, removing the content from the vault-mail message; placing the content on a vault server; creating a link in the vault-mail message to the content on the vault server; sending the vault-mail message to a designated recipient; and upon activating the link, allowing the content to be only viewed in a restricted-execution session of a client application, wherein the restricted-execution session does not allow the content to be altered, copied, stored, printed, forwarded, or otherwise executed. Preferably, the activation of the vault-mail message is performed by a network-security gateway, and can be performed on a per-message basis.

Abstract: The number of domain identifiers is incrementally increased for use by a switch in an established fiber channel switched fabric. In other words, the number of domains assigned to a switch by the Principal Switch of the fiber channel switched fabric is increased without triggering the reconfiguration of the established fiber channel switched fabric. In one implementation, incrementally adding one or more additional domain identifiers includes requesting said one or more additional domain identifiers from a Principal Switch of the fiber channel switched fabric using a different World Wide Name (WWN) than used to acquire the original one or more domain identifiers used by the switch.

Abstract: Methods, systems and computer program products are disclosed for identifying a message deliverability problem. In an example system, a source email server divides a plurality of email messages intended for delivery to destination devices using at least two source IP addresses into at least two groups of messages. The source email server outputs each email message in one of the groups through a same one of the source IP addresses and outputs each email message in another one of the groups through a different one of the source IP addresses. Each of the email messages is configured to trigger a response that includes the source IP address of the email message in response to a user opening the email message and/or selecting a hyperlink within the email message. A deliverability analysis module identifies an email message deliverability problem associated with one of the source IP addresses in response to a comparison of the responses across the source IP addresses.
