Patent number: 7836448Abstract: In a storage area network (SAN), different tasks may expect different types of commands for commencing execution, such as interactive or offline, and may have different formats for reporting status and completion, such as log files or message based. A framework for defining the business logic enveloped in a particular task, and providing a common manner of deploying, or enabling invocation, of the task provides consistent operator control for scheduling, monitoring, ensuring completion, and tracking errors and other events. Business logic modules are identified as commands corresponding to a task. Transactions including a set of the commands define an ordered sequence for completing the task. The operator requests a particular set of tasks, using a selection tree, and the task manager builds a corresponding execution tree to identify and map the transactions and commands of the task to the execution tree to optimize execution and mitigate redundancies.Type: GrantFiled: June 30, 2004Date of Patent: November 16, 2010Assignee: EMC CorporationInventors: Boris Farizon, Urayoan Irizarry, Mordechai Zvi Zur, Ohad Zeliger, Jeffrey Louis Alexander, Ilya Liubovich

Publication number: 20100136813Abstract: A coaxial switching jack with a pair of coaxial assemblies mounted within a housing having a pair of front openings. The coaxial assemblies each include a center conductor and a shell conductor. The center conductors are connected by a first spring and the shell conductors are connected by a second spring. Insertion of a coaxial cable connector within one of the front openings deflects the springs from the corresponding coaxial assembly and disconnects the center and shell conductors of the two assemblies. The jack may also be configured to provide an electrical connection between the center and shell conductors of the second coaxial assembly if a coaxial cable connector is inserted within the first coaxial assembly. The connection between the center and shell conductors of the second coaxial assembly may allow for selection of a desired electrical impedance.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 16, 2009Publication date: June 3, 2010Applicant: ADC TELECOMMUNICATIONS, INC.Inventors: M'hamed Anis Khemakhem, Jeffrey Louis Peters, Duane Sand
