  • Patent number: 10742232
    Abstract: Aspects of dynamic data compression selection are presented. In an example method, as uncompressed data chunks of a data stream are compressed, at least one performance factor affecting selection of one of multiple compression algorithms for the uncompressed data chunks of the data stream may be determined. Each of the multiple compression algorithms may facilitate a different expected compression ratio. One of the multiple compression algorithms may be selected separately for each uncompressed data chunk of the data stream based on the at least one performance factor. Each uncompressed data chunk may be compressed using the selected one of the multiple compression algorithms for the uncompressed data chunk.

  • Patent number: 8219714
    Abstract: A storage array includes at least one target and a logical unit having a logical unit number. The storage array is configured to receive input defining a host group comprising at least one initiator and receive input defining a target group comprising the at least one target. The host group, target group and logical unit number define a view entry. The storage array is further configured to apply the view entry to the logical unit to provide a logical unit inventory that is provisioned for the at least one initiator.

  • Publication number: 20040010563
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention implement a method and system for naming devices and partitions in a storage area network (SAN) that is accessible to end users and system administrators alike, readily maps the name transparently to an actual physical device or disk location, and is globally applicable to the SAN and operable with any volume management utility used thereon. In one embodiment, an enterprise device/partition naming functionality is deployed upon a computer system to constitute an enterprise device/partition naming functionality which effectuates processes for accessing user-named device/partitions and/or assigning a user selected name to one. Such names reduce possible confusion and make accessing a device simpler and less error prone.

  • Patent number: 6066038
    Abstract: An automatic hopper fill system for a coin dispensing machine. An auxiliary coin reservoir container is positioned entirely within the machine to perform the hopper fill function when the hopper becomes empty. The container includes an opening or chute which is normally blocked by an electro-mechanically controlled release door and opened electronically by a circuit which reads a hopper empty code generated to release the auxiliary coin reserve into the hopper. An indicator light is mounted on the external surface of the machine to indicate that the auxiliary container has released the coin reserve into the hopper so that the auxiliary container can be re-filled with coins at a convenient time.
