Patent number: 11880294Abstract: Distributed tracing is applied during an upgrade from a first management appliance to a second management appliance. The distributed tracing method includes generating a parent span that encapsulates states of the overall workflow, including a span context that contains a trace identifier and a span identifier, and generating a plurality of child spans. Each child span encapsulates states that represent a piece of the workflow and contains a reference to the parent span context. The states of the child spans include an error tag that indicates whether the piece of the workflow associated with the child span executed with an error. Because child spans may be generated for a piece of the workflow that is executed by a service running in the first or second management appliance, the span context for the parent span is persisted by the first management appliance and replicated for use by the second management appliance.Type: GrantFiled: April 14, 2022Date of Patent: January 23, 2024Assignee: VMware, Inc.Inventors: Anmol Parikh, Ivaylo Radoslavov Radev, Akash Kodenkiri, Ammar Rizvi, Grigor Harbaliev, Vladimir Ivanov, Dimitar Dimitrov, Chandrika Mutalik

Publication number: 20190162403Abstract: Slag (28) is formed during the combustion of solid fuels with a lower ash fusion temperature and covers parts of the solid fuel, prevents complete combustion and blocks the air supply, thereby leading to an interruption of the combustion process. According to the invention, the embers and the fusing ashes are mixed by means of a cleaning comb (22) and are discharged from the burner. The burner consists of rotating grate bars (25) which are arranged parallel to one another within the inner walls (1). The cleaning comb (22) moves between the grate bars (25); upwards between the grate bars (25); in direction of the burner opening; downwards under the grate bars; and finally in the direction of the burner flange (7). When the slag (28) adheres to the rotating grate bars (25), it is scraped off by the cleaning comb (22). The fuel supplied to a funnel (8) slides downwards by the force of gravity, the funnel lid (9) opens, and the fuel is pushed onto the grate bars (25) by the plunger (11).Type: ApplicationFiled: May 30, 2017Publication date: May 30, 2019Inventor: Dimitar Dimitrov
