Patent number: 11397816Abstract: A boot image is modified to require authentication based on stable system values that are uniquely associated with a storage array. The stable system values may be used as a key to decrypt a password. The modified boot image will not allow booting to proceed without the decrypted password. The password cannot be decrypted based on different stable system values such as the stable system values of other storage arrays.Type: GrantFiled: July 8, 2019Date of Patent: July 26, 2022Assignee: Dell Products L.P.Inventors: Sindhura Chamala, Kannan Subbaraman, Venkat Mattapalli Reddy, Debra Robitaille, Mark Arakelian

Patent number: 11256553Abstract: A workload manager uses on-band and off-band metrics to select a host server in a cluster to handle a connection request. The on-band metrics include CPU usage, memory usage, and vulnerability metrics. The off-band metrics include hardware component error logs. Utilization and vulnerability scores are calculated for each host server from the on-band metrics. A reliability score is calculated for each host server from the off-band metrics. A health score for each host server is calculated from the vulnerability and reliability scores. The health score is used to exclude unhealthy host servers from consideration. A priority score is calculated for each host server from the utilization, vulnerability, and reliability scores. The host server that has not been excluded and has the greatest priority score is selected to handle the connection request.Type: GrantFiled: March 9, 2020Date of Patent: February 22, 2022Assignee: Dell Products L.P.Inventors: Tamilarasan Janakiraman, Kannan Subbaraman, Sivaram Selvam, Mark Arakelian, Debra Robitaille

Patent number: 11157660Abstract: An apparatus comprises at least one processing device coupled to memory. The at least one processing device is configured to obtain a secured disk image comprising an encrypted manifest file, an encrypted install binary and a plurality of other files. The at least one processing device is further configured to obtain a certificate corresponding to the secured disk image and to derive a public key based at least in part on the certificate. The at least one processing device is further configured to decrypt the manifest file and the install binary based at least in part on the public key and to validate checksums for respective ones of the plurality of other files against corresponding checksums contained in the decrypted manifest file. The at least one processing device is further configured to execute the decrypted install binary responsive to validation of the checksums for the respective ones of the plurality of other files.Type: GrantFiled: October 17, 2019Date of Patent: October 26, 2021Assignee: EMC IP Holding Company LLCInventors: Debra J. Robitaille, Mark Arakelian, Venkat M. Reddy, Kannan Subbaraman, Tamilarasan Janakiraman, Parthasarathi Ilangovan, Kiran Kumar G. Ramegowda

Patent number: 10031794Abstract: A method, computer program product, and computing system for monitoring the availability of multiple redundant data sources within a high-availability data environment. The inaccessibility of at least one of the multiple redundant data sources is detected, thus defining at least one inaccessible data source. Which software applications are impacted by the at least one inaccessible data source is determined, thus defining at least one impacted software application. A notification is provided to one or more parties associated with the at least one impacted software application concerning the inaccessibility of the at least one inaccessible data source.Type: GrantFiled: June 30, 2015Date of Patent: July 24, 2018Assignee: EMC IP Holding Company, LLCInventors: Mark Arakelian, Michael McCarthy, Steven Teng, Jeff Phillips, Matthew Eaton

Patent number: 9202304Abstract: A system provides for display of results from performance data analysis that presents mini-chart overlays on a topology map based on intelligent analytics for components in a I/O data path of a host or other object. The mini-charts may be advantageously used to show criticality of impact to assist a user with incident avoidance and/or to provide fast incident resolution. When launching into the topology map, the user may enable mini-charts and visually see from the charts where a possible performance bottleneck is detected by the analytics. In an embodiment, the mini-charts for the most relevant metrics may be displayed and identified for criticality, such as by color. The colors may be determined by thresholds, that may be set by a user and/or determined by the system, and may be calculated automatically based on learned base line, maximum line and minimum line operations over set times.Type: GrantFiled: September 28, 2012Date of Patent: December 1, 2015Assignee: EMC CorporationInventors: Rony R. Baenziger, Hanna Yehuda, Gary K. Roberts, JoAnne Hubbard, Mark A. Arakelian, Katarzyna Leskow
