Abstract: Embodiments of a system and method for making an archival copy of business data by performing a third party copy of backup data across a SAN are described. A SAN may include a SAN fabric, multiple host/servers and multiple storage devices including archival storage devices. The SAN fabric may include the switches, hubs, bridges, routers, etc. necessary to allow any host/server to access any storage device. The host/servers may allow applications access to primary data stored in the SAN. At least one of the host/servers may run a backup server that is responsible for making backup and archival copies of the primary data stored on the storage devices by the applications. The backup server may initiate a server-free copy of the backup data through the SAN fabric to the archival storage devices.

Abstract: One or more computer systems, a carrier medium, and a method are provided for backing up data using a backup server. The user may instruct backup software on a backup server to identify a second computer system (other than the backup server) as the parent computer system of the backed-up files. The backup software may receive the name of this second computer system as input, and the backup software may then output the name to a catalog during the backup process. When the backed-up data is restored, the catalog may be used to identify the parent of the backed-up data as the second computer system. In one embodiment, the data to be backed up may be part of a mirror which comprises substantially the same data as an original data volume. A carrier medium may include program instructions which, when executed, cause the above operations on one or more computer systems.

Abstract: A multilayer film has a first outer layer, an inner layer, and a second outer layer. The first outer layer comprises a homogeneous ethylene/alpha-olefin copolymer. The inner layer comprises a thermoplastic elastomer. The second outer layer comprises a second ethylene/alpha-olefin copolymer. The inner layer is between the first outer layer and the second outer layer, and is chemically different from the first outer layer and the second outer layer. The multilayer film has an O2-transmission rate of from about 500 to 50,000 cc/m2 24 hr STP, and a modulus of at least 60,000 psi. The multilayer film is especially useful for the packaging of O2-sensitive products, such as produce. The high modulus of the film enhances its performance in form-fill-and-seal operations.

Abstract: A computer keyboard and mouse sterilizing system which has a cabinet and extendable base for storage and support of the keyboard and mouse, and that utilizes an ultra-violet light source for the destruction of microorganisms when the keyboard is not in use.

Abstract: A multilayer film has a first outer layer, an inner layer, and a second outer layer. The first outer layer comprises a homogeneous ethylene/alpha-olefin copolymer. The inner layer comprises a thermoplastic elastomer. The second outer layer comprises a second ethylene/alpha-olefin copolymer. The inner layer is between the first outer layer and the second outer layer, and is chemically different from the first outer layer and the second outer layer. The multilayer film has an O.sub.2 -transmission rate of from about 500 to 50,000 cc/m.sup.2 24hr STP, and a modulus of at least 60,000 psi. The multilayer film is especially useful for the packaging of O.sub.2 -sensitive products, such as produce. The high modulus of the film enhances its performance in form-fill-and-seal operations.
