Abstract: Described is an improved approach to IP failover in a computing system. An approach is described which allows each node to perform its own sorted ordering of the interface devices on that node, but in a way where each node will deterministically come up with the exact same sorted order as another node. In this way, each node will select the exact same failover target as any other node, without requiring complicated coordination logic and without the need for a centralized coordinator.

Abstract: Described is an improved system, method, and computer program product for performing elections in a computing system. Approaches are described for the non-leader member of a member set to self-identify to be the vice-leader. When it detects a death, rather than wait the random, bounded period, the vice-leader can immediately send its “vote for me” message to other members. This puts it ahead of the race by other members to announce their candidacies, and results in vastly more frequent conclusion of the election in the initial round.

Abstract: According to one aspect of the present disclosure, there is provided a power converter apparatus that includes at least two switching bridges connected to a Direct Current (DC) bus and both generating pulse-width-modulated (PWM) voltages to non-isolated outputs, and an isolation transformer having a primary winding connected across the outputs of the two switching bridges and a secondary winding connected to isolated outputs. In a non-isolated mode, the two switching bridges are configured to operate in a parallel mode, and power is transferred between the DC bus and the non-isolated outputs. In an isolated mode, the two switching bridges are configured to operate in a full bridge mode, and power is transferred between the DC bus and the isolated outputs through the transformer.
