Abstract: A method, computer system, and a computer program product for operating at least one storage server. The present invention may include receiving an access request for at least one storage volume of at least one storage server. The present invention may include collecting data for the at least one storage volume, wherein the at least one storage volume has a corresponding unique volume identifier. The present invention may include storing at least the data for the at least one storage volume and the unique volume identifier in a database, the data being comprised of metadata and subset data, wherein the metadata is comprised of configuration and status information for the at least one storage volume, and wherein the subset data is a set of predefined selection criteria based on a respective computer server.

Abstract: Page setup and page information content for documents are used to represent interactive applications in client-server communications. Accordingly, interactive applications are performed in a client-server based dialog system, including a client and a server which communicate with one another, by transmitting documents from the server to the client which represent the interactive applications and which are independent of the client system resources. At the client, the received documents are mapped to the client system resources to thereby perform interactive applications using the client system resources. Accordingly, client-server communications may take place for many different types of clients in a device independent and transfer optimized manner. Changes to the applications may be provided on the server only.
