  • Patent number: 11954509
    Abstract: In a case where an active system virtual server detects stopping of a heartbeat received from a standby system virtual server, the active system virtual server notifies a coordination apparatus of the detection of the stopping of a heartbeat. In addition, the active system virtual server reports whether or not a service is operating to the coordination apparatus. The coordination apparatus instructs the standby system virtual server to restart the system in a case where the stopping of a heartbeat and the operation of a service are received. The standby system virtual server restarts the service, restarts an operating system, or restarts the operating system in a case where the restart of the service is not successful, in response to an instruction for restarting the system.

  • Patent number: 9904559
    Abstract: When an information processing apparatus is requested to transfer to a system interruption state, the information processing apparatus determines whether to compress data at each page, and generates a hibernation image configured of compressed data and non-compressed data. In an operating system activation period, the information processing apparatus determines whether to execute hibernation activation processing before initializing a memory management mechanism. In a case where the information processing apparatus executes the hibernation activation processing, the information processing apparatus reduces a size of the memory management region up to the size required for the initialization of the kernel, and reads the compressed data in parallel with initialization of hardware. After initializing the kernel, the information processing apparatus reads the non-compressed data in parallel with decompression of the compressed data.

  • Patent number: 9658863
    Abstract: When generating a suspend request for a system running on an apparatus, data is stored to a non-volatile memory as a hibernation image which represents a memory state of a volatile memory, register values of a peripheral, and register values of a processor. When generating a boot request of the system, it is determined whether a valid hibernation image is available in the non-volatile memory. When the valid hibernation image is available, a boot core of the processor initializes a part of slave cores of the processor, and the boot core and/or the initialized slave core initialize the peripheral to perform a kernel initialization of the system. After the kernel initialization is completed, the memory state, and the register values of the peripheral and processor are restored based on the valid hibernation image.

  • Publication number: 20120311240
    Abstract: The hibernation start-up by the kernel function takes a long time due to a processing time required for a normal boot sequence. When starting an operating system, the information processing apparatus according to the present invention determines whether to perform the hibernation start-up processing before initialization of a memory management mechanism. When the hibernation start-up processing is performed, a size of the memory management mechanism is reduced to a minimum size necessary for initializing the kernel and a hibernation image is read in parallel with initialization of hardware. The limited memory management area can be restored to a state free from a limitation by reading the hibernation image.

  • Patent number: 7137483
    Abstract: An elevator in which the sheave diameter is reduced and the attendant lowering of the rope life and strength is suppressed to secure safety and reliability. To this end, a rope is used in which a plurality of element wires constituting the wire rope are each covered with resin material and the whole wire rope is covered with resin material, thereby reducing the wear due to slippage between the element wires and the wear due to contact with the sheave, which wear occurs when the rope is entrained around the sheave. When the elevator sheave diameter is reduced, a worried lowering of the rope life can be suppressed or the rope life can be improved. Thus, it is possible to achieve reduction of size and weight of equipment including motors and hoists, installation space saving for elevators, improved safety and reliability of the system by virtue of the increased rope life.
