Abstract: A distributed lock manager (DLM) may be implemented in a distributed computing system that provides virtualized computing resources and/or virtual computing services to clients. Locks may be created and managed by the DLM in response to requests from clients to do so. The components of the DLM may communicate with each other over a network other than one over which client application components communicate with each other or access the shared resources protected by the locks. For example, DLM components may communicate over a control plane network of a cloud computing environment and application components may communicate over a data plane network of the cloud computing environment. The DLM may expose an API to clients, allowing them to make local calls to a DLM component on the same node to perform various lock management operations. The meanings of the lock values may be established by their use in client applications.

The infrastructure state is shared with a controller of the fabric to integrate the hardware inventory therein.

Abstract: A preview generating section 104 generates preview forming data within a predetermined data size by extracting at least a part of header information and at least a part of a mail body from an electronic mail obtained by a mail obtaining section 102. A cache section 142 caches the preview forming data. A display section 108 displays a preview list on a display device 68 using the preview forming data cached by the cache section 142. When a preview included in the preview list is selected, a command transmitting section 106 requests a server to transmit the electronic mail identified by the selected preview.

Abstract: Certain embodiments of the present disclosure generally relate to allocating a sub-area of Fiber Channel addresses (FCIDs) to a device. A range of addresses may be assigned to the device using a mask address, where the most significant bits represent a mask and the least significant bits represent a sub-range of FCIDs available to be assigned to the device. Therefore, routing information may be stored efficiently in a Ternary Content Addressable Memory (TCAM) by storing a single entry in the TCAM for each sub-area of FCIDs allocated to a device, instead of storing an entry for each FCID. The single entry may indicate the mask address and the width of the mask.

Abstract: Systems and methods for reconstructing unified data in an electronic storage network are provided which may include the identification and use of metadata stored centrally within the system.
