Abstract: Recovery support techniques for storage virtualization environments are described. In one embodiment, for example, a method may be performed that comprises defining, by processing circuitry, a storage container comprising one or more logical storage volumes of a logical storage array of a storage system, associating the storage container with a virtual volume (vvol) datastore, identifying metadata for a vvol of the vvol datastore, and writing the metadata for the vvol to the storage system. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

Abstract: In some examples, a first storage system receives a transfer of a synchronous replication role and an asynchronous replication role of a second storage system to the first storage system, where in the synchronous replication role the second storage system is to synchronously replicate data to the first storage system, and in the asynchronous replication role the second storage system is to asynchronously replicate a first data storage object to a third storage system. The first storage system uses, at the first storage system, translation information to identify a second data storage object that the second storage system is to asynchronously replicate to the third storage system following the transfer.

Abstract: A simplified and accelerated determination of how much of a display element, generated by instructions executing on a computing device, is displayed is achieved through approximations based on a two-dimensional array whose dimensions are commensurate with a size of the display element. Each entry in the array is initialized to one binary value. If the display element is cut off by either physical display boundaries or by boundaries of a host display element, or if it is overlapped by another element, then the entries in the array corresponding to those portions of the display element that are not visible are changed to another binary value. Subsequently, the quantity of entries in the array having the original, initialized binary value, as compared with the total quantity of entries in the array, can provide an accurate approximation for how much of the display element was displayed.

Abstract: Various embodiments are generally directed an apparatus and method for determining a profile for an application, the profile to specify a setting for one or more storage services provided by a storage system, determining whether settings for provided storage services for the application conform to the profile. Further and in response to determining one or more of the provided storage services is non-conforming, performing a remediation operation to correct non-conforming storage services, and in response to determining the provided storage services are conforming storage services, providing an indication indicating the provided storage services are conforming to the profile.
