Abstract: Disclosed systems and methods include or support a message logging service in which, responsive to receiving an event message generated by a business function, the message is logged in accordance with a message severity, one or more severity level attributes of the system, and one or more message logging criterion. Responsive to determining the message severity meets a first criterion, the message may be routed to and saved within a first persistent log file. Responsive to determining the message severity satisfies a second criterion, the message may be temporarily stored to a FIFO message queue, for possible inclusion in a second persistent log file. A health monitoring service for monitoring application programs corresponding to various business functions, upon detecting a degraded health state of a business function, may cause messages stored in the message queue to be dumped to a second persistent log file.

Abstract: Disclosed systems and methods may retrieve a base image of a plugin for a hyperconverged infrastructure (HCl) platform and create a Docker image for an HCl platform plugin based, in part, on the base image. The HCl platform plugin enables an extended function not native to the HCl platform. Disclosed methods may include registering the Docker image within an HCl platform instance running on an HCl appliance associated with a customer, and saving the Docker image to a Docker image repository within the HCl platform instance. The extended HCl platform function may be any suitable function including, as an illustrative example, a function for provisioning a third party storage device within the HCl platform. Disclosed method steps may be performed by an independent third party developer that lacks authorized access to an HCl platform instance.

Abstract: This disclosure provides methods and systems for translating quality of service (QoS) parameters of a first radio access technology (RAT), e.g., Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access (WiMAX), to QoS parameters of a second RAT, e.g., code division multiple access (CDMA) high rate packet data (HRPD). The methods and systems facilitate a handover by a multi-mode mobile station or other wireless device from the first RAT to the second RAT and vice versa.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus for easily and quickly returning to a first radio access technology (RAT) network when handover to a second RAT network is cancelled are provided. The methods and apparatus may involve a mobile station (MS) entering idle mode before handover to the second RAT network is completed and requesting a serving base station (BS) to retain MS service and operational information, as well as service flow state information. In this manner, should handover to the second RAT network be cancelled before completion, a re-entry to the first RAT network may be expeditiously performed using the retained MS information.

Base station (BS) acquisition assisted in this manner may provide for quick restoration of a previously interrupted or deactivated network service, while decreasing the power consumption of the multi-mode MS during a power savings state because periodic scanning and registration need not occur.

Apparatus provided may generally include logic for receiving a request message indicating a set of MIMO resources of the MS to reallocate; logic for, during a scan duration, communicating with the MS in a first transmission mode assuming the use of only non-reallocated MIMO resources by the MS; and logic for, during a normal duration, communicating with the MS in a second transmission mode assuming the use of the reallocated and non-reallocated MIMO resources by the MS.
