Abstract: Virtual Machine (VM) images in a virtualized environment are updated through the use of patches. A virtualization data processing system includes a hypervisor that manages a VM image. The hypervisor is configured to retrieve a patch for an instance of the VM image from a secure site. The hypervisor blocks all other network access to the VM image.

Abstract: A high availability/disaster recovery appliance test vehicle that contains a preconfigured high availability/disaster recovery solution for quick implementation at a test environment. The hardware and software components may be preconfigured with test applications and data and all the necessary networking, SAN and operating system requirements. This single shippable rack can be used to certify a multi site high availability/disaster recovery architecture that supports both local and site failover and site to site data replication. The unit is plug and play which reduces the effort required to begin the evaluation and reduces the number of IT teams that need to be involved. An apparatus and method for implementing the above high availability/disaster recovery vehicle are provided.

Abstract: A system and method for automatic code generation includes parsing source code in a source program to automatically generate reliability, accessibility and serviceability (RAS) code in response to the source code. The automatically generated code is executed in a check in stage. All, a portion or none of the automatically generated code is selectively removed during a check out stage to keep the source program clean and focused.

Abstract: A method, system and computer program and method for delivering a streaming data to a remote device from a wireless transmitter. In one embodiment, a transmitter is configured to send units of the streaming data to the remote device. A receiver is configured to receive usage data about the streaming data from the remote device. An adjusting module is configured to automatically adjust a transmission strategy of unsent units of the streaming data based, at least in part, on the usage data as a function of time according to a transmission policy. The usage data may include at least location information about the remote device or time of day information at the remote device. A user interface at the remote device may be configured to adjust the predefined transmission policy.
