Patent number: 7801865Abstract: Methods and systems for providing access to spaces in a database during a recovery process affecting the database. Spaces in the database that are affected by the recovery process are identified and I/O requests sent to a media manager associated with the database are intercepted. If the I/O request is for a read operation to a space affected by the recovery process and the corresponding page has been recovered, the data in the page may be read. If the page has not been recovered, the read operation may be held in a cache until the recovery utility indicates that the page has been recovered. If the I/O request is for a write operation to a space affected by the recovery process, the data may be written to a cache.Type: GrantFiled: December 31, 2007Date of Patent: September 21, 2010Assignee: BMC Software, Inc.Inventors: Richard Wayne Cline, Stanley James Dee, Michel Laviolette, Thomas G.

Publication number: 20070193299Abstract: An ice crusher is attached to an ice dispenser or to a combined ice and beverage dispenser. The ice crusher occupies minimal space in order to fit the dispenser into an existing space on a serving counter or in a beverage dispensing area. The ice crusher may also elevate the ice. In embodiments using this technique, the outlet of the ice from the ice crusher is higher than the ice inlet. As the ice flows from a source of ice, such as an ice bin, the ice is elevated while it is being crushed. The ice then flows from the outlet of the ice crusher down an ice chute or other outlet of the ice crusher, into a cup or container as desired. Other embodiments convey the ice without lifting it, and still other embodiments dispense either crushed or cubed ice, as the consumer may select. In one embodiment the selected crushed ice or cubed ice are both dispensed though the same ice dispensing chute.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 1, 2006Publication date: August 23, 2007Inventors: Jerry Landers, Gregory Thompson, William Slone, Greg Glass, John Grady
