Abstract: Method, computer program product, and computer system are provided. A controller component verifies the state of all file sets. The controller component initiates a sub-controller component, based on successfully verifying the state of the file sets. The sub-controller component suspends write operations to all databases at the primary site computer. Based on the suspending completing without error, the sub-controller executes point-in-time copy processes for each of the databases and for application non-database files at the primary site computer. Applications using the databases and non-database files are not suspended. Based on all of the point-in-time copy processes completing without error, the sub-controller component resumes write operations to all databases at the primary site computer. The point-in-time copies are automatically sent to the secondary site computer so that the applications can operate at the secondary site computer if the primary site computer becomes unavailable.

Abstract: The invention relates to an apparatus (1) and a method for contactless measuring of an object surface (2). In the proposed method, a temporally variable temperature distribution on the object surface (2) is generated by serially imprinting a plurality of thermal patterns (9) on the object surface (2). Subsequently, a thermal image of the object surface (2) is recorded by at least one thermal imaging camera (16, 17) at each of a plurality of successive recording instants, so that a respective sequence of thermal image values is acquired for points in an image plane (18, 19) of the thermal imaging camera or each of the thermal imaging cameras (16, 17).
