Abstract: An adjustable carriage assembly is configured to be mounted on a frame member of a weight rack and includes a moveable carriage with a plurality of rollers that engage the frame member, as well as a connection structure for connection of an articulating implement. A releasable pin is mounted on the carriage proximate to a rear of the carriage and has an arm configured for engagement to move the releasable pin. The releasable pin is moveable by axial translation between a locked position and an unlocked position to selectively engage the frame member to lock the carriage in position or permit movement of the carriage. A removable pin may be removably received through a pin hole in the carriage to extend through the passage in a direction perpendicular to a direction of axial translation of the releasable pin, to engage the frame member to prevent movement of the carriage.

Abstract: Methods, computer program products, and systems are presented. A high availability system includes a high availability set of a primary node processing incoming computational tasks and two or more backup nodes in a queue. The incoming computational tasks for the high availability set is managed according to various policies. For example, based on detecting an impending failure of the primary due to a lack of resources allocated for the primary node, one of the backup node that has the resources lacking from the primary node and that is the least likely to be used for processing the incoming computational tasks is selected as a lender node, according to a borrowing policy, and the resources of the lender node is allocated to the primary for further processing of the incoming computational tasks.
