Abstract: In one embodiment, systems and methods are provided for configuring multiple network interfaces based on a network profile. In one embodiment, a user interface module manages the creation, modification, and deletion of active and inactive profiles, which may be stored to a configuration file accessible to computers with network interfaces belonging to the respective profiles, such as homogeneous or heterogeneous nodes in a clustered network of computers. In one embodiment, a configuration module reads a configuration file with embedded network profiles and builds the appropriate network interfaces according to the interface parameters specified in the network profiles.

Abstract: Embodiments of the disclosure relate generally to file systems. Specifically, certain embodiments include systems and methods for reading objects in a file system. In some embodiments, a first processing thread traverses a portion of a file system and represents file system objects in a data structure. A portion of the data and/or metadata associated with the represented objects may be prefetched to a memory. In some embodiments, a second processing thread consumes the objects represented in the queue. For example, in a file system backup embodiment, the second processing thread may transfer data and/or metadata associated with the objects to an archive target.
