  • SYSTEMS, METHODS AND COMPUTER POROGRAMS FOR DETERMINING DEPENDENCIES BETWEEN LOGICAL COMPONENTS IN A DATA PROCESSING SYSTEM OR NETWORK
    Publication number: 20080216098
    Abstract: Described are methods, apparatus and computer programs for determining run-time dependencies between logical components of a data processing environment. Components of the data processing environment are monitored by monitoring agents accessing run-time activity data via APIs of the managed system. A dependency generator identifies correlations between the run-time activity of the monitored components. For synchronous monitored systems, the dependency generator calculates an activity period for monitored components and determines which component's activity periods contain the activity periods of other components. Containment is used as an indicator of a likely dependency relationship, and a weighting is computed for each dependency relationship based on the consistency of containment.

    Publication number: 20080183855
    Abstract: A method and a system for resolving problems in an enterprise system which contains a plurality of servers forming a cluster coupled via a network. A central controller is configured to monitor and control the plurality of servers in the cluster. The central controller is configured to poll the plurality of servers based on pre-defined rules and identify an alarm pattern in the cluster. The alarm pattern is associated with one of the servers in the cluster and a possible root cause is identified by the central controller with labeled alarm pattern in a repository and a possible solution is recommended to overcome the identified problem that has been associated with the alarm pattern. Information in the repository is adapted based on feedback about the real root cause obtained from the administrator.

  • Client applications with third party payment integration
    Publication number: 20080177656
    Abstract: An application module enables users of a business application to incorporate a third party payment link into documents (e.g., invoices) that are created in an off-line environment. The third party payment link enables a receiver of an electronic copy of the document to navigate the link to a third party vendor's payment web site, where the receiver makes payment arrangements. In one embodiment, upon navigation of the link, transaction detail is automatically exported from the document into the third party vendor's on-line payment process. Transaction details can be downloaded from the third party payment service and, in one embodiment, are automatically accounted for within an accounting application.

  • WATER RESERVOIR PRESSURE VESSEL
    Publication number: 20080156015
    Abstract: Refrigeration devices that have a water dispensing system to dispense water to an exterior water dispenser from a water supply line have need of a water vessel for storing water under pressure within the refrigeration device until dispensed. The water vessel has an inlet for receiving water from the water supply line and an outlet for dispensing water to the exterior water dispenser. A plurality of pressure resistant walls are formed between the inlet and the outlet to form an internal volume to reservoir water within the water vessel. The water vessel is constructed to reservoir water within the vessel under hydrostatic pressure from the water supply line until dispensed through the outlet when requested by the exterior water dispenser and/or the icemaker.

  • Fax Accounts
    Publication number: 20080030794
    Abstract: A fax account is described and creates an association between users and documents that are faxed. A fax account allows a user to secure their faxed documents and organize and streamline fax communication via different transports. In at least some embodiments, security is enhanced through the use of an authentication model that authenticates individual users before giving them access to the fax functionality or, more accurately, their fax account. In at least some embodiments, fax accounts also provide users with an infrastructure through which they can manage their documents. In addition, in at least some embodiments, fax accounts can be used to manage and direct received faxes to the intended recipient, thus reducing the possibility of an unintended recipient gaining access to the fax.
