Publication number: 20240370180Abstract: A system analyzes data associated with a failure of an information handling system by evaluating memory addresses found in memory, such as bug check parameters, context register values, or stacks in a memory dump, at the time of a fatal error to determine whether one of the memory addresses has a single-bit error, and modifying a first memory address with the single-bit error to generate a second memory address, wherein the first memory address is one of the memory addresses being evaluated. If a second memory address is mapped to the page table, the system authorizes a repair of the information handling system.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 1, 2023Publication date: November 7, 2024Inventors: Craig Chaiken, Shiven Pandya, Paul Jimenez

Patent number: 9330109Abstract: Disclosed are systems, methods and apparatuses for managing objects (files and directories) in network file systems according to policies. Each policy may have one or more rules, each of which ties a condition to an action. Each condition can be expressed in terms of metadata harvested across file systems and stored in a metadata repository. The actions are user-programmable. Users can apply and/or enforce a policy by manipulating the metadata stored in the metadata repository. For example, suppose a policy prohibits storing MP3 files in corporate storage, a user can specify a rule that ties the condition “no MP3 files in volumes A-Z” to an action “delete MP3 files from volumes A-Z.” A file management application may apply a filter to the metadata repository to produce metadata records having values that meet the specified condition and take the corresponding action on managed objects associated with those metadata records.Type: GrantFiled: March 7, 2013Date of Patent: May 3, 2016Assignee: INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS MACHINES CORPORATIONInventors: Jeff G. Bone, Laura Arbilla, Keith T. Zoellner, Bradley Might, Jeremy Kaplan, Morry Belkin, Peter A. Lee, Brett A. Funderburg, A. Paul Jimenez

Patent number: 8612404Abstract: A harvester is disclosed for harvesting metadata of managed objects (files and directories) across file systems which are generally not interoperable in an enterprise environment. Harvested metadata may include 1) file system attributes such as size, owner, recency; 2) content-specific attributes such as the presence or absence of various keywords (or combinations of keywords) within documents as well as concepts comprised of natural language entities; 3) synthetic attributes such as mathematical checksums or hashes of file contents; and 4) high-level semantic attributes that serve to classify and categorize files and documents. The classification itself can trigger an action in compliance with a policy rule. Harvested metadata are stored in a metadata repository to facilitate the automated or semi-automated application of policies.Type: GrantFiled: October 1, 2009Date of Patent: December 17, 2013Assignee: Stored IQ, Inc.Inventors: Jeff G. Bone, Laura Arbilla, Keith Zoellner, Bradley Might, Peter A. Lee, Brett A. Funderburg, A. Paul Jimenez
