  • Patent number: 10417174
    Abstract: A method of managing remote direct memory access (RDMA) to a virtual computing instance includes suspending locally initiated RDMA operations of the virtual computing instance executing on a first host prior to a migration of the virtual computing instance to a second host. The first host includes a first hypervisor and the second host includes a second hypervisor. The method further includes requesting a peer to suspend remotely initiated RDMA operations that target the virtual computing instance through a first channel, establishing after the migration, a second channel between the peer and the second hypervisor that supports execution of the virtual computing instance on the second host, configuring a virtual object of the second hypervisor on the second host to use the second channel for the locally initiated RDMA operations, and requesting the peer to resume the remotely initiated RDMA operations using the second channel.

  • Publication number: 20180371517

  • Publication number: 20180327723
    Abstract: The invention relates to methods for producing glycosylated nootkatol. In particular, a recombinant host comprising a gene encoding a UDP-glycosyltransferase polypeptide capable of glycosylating nootkatol is disclosed. Glycosylation of nootkatol detoxifies nootkatol, allowing for greater production of (glycosylated-)nootkatol, a precursor of nootkatone, and therefore greater production of nootkatone. The invention also relates to methods of converting non-toxic, glycosylated nootkatol produced by a recombinant host to nootkatol, wherein the nootkatol can subsequently be converted to large quantities of nootkatone to be used in flavorings, perfumes, and/or insect repellents.
