Abstract: An HVAC system includes a blower, a variable-speed compressor, an indoor air temperature sensor that measures an indoor air temperature (IAT) of an enclosed space, a discharge air temperature sensor that measures a discharge air temperature (DAT) of the flow of air from an evaporator, and a controller. The controller stores an indoor temperature setpoint and a default discharge air temperature setpoint. The controller receives the IAT and the DAT. The controller determines that the IAT is not within a threshold range of the indoor temperature setpoint. The controller then determines an adaptive discharge air temperature setpoint. The controller determines a compressor speed at which to operate the variable-speed compressor based on the adaptive discharge air temperature setpoint. The controller causes the variable-speed compressor to operate at the determined compressor speed.

Abstract: An HVAC system includes a compressor, condenser, and evaporator. A sensor measures a value associated with the refrigerant in the condenser or the evaporator, and a controller is communicatively coupled to the compressor and the sensor. The controller determines, based on an operational history the compressor, that pre-requisite criteria are satisfied for entering a sensor validation mode. After determining the pre-requisite criteria are satisfied, an initial sensor measurement value is determined. Following determining the initial sensor measurement value, the compressor is operated according to a sensor-validation mode. Following operating the compressor according to the sensor-validation mode for at least a minimum time, a current sensor measurement value is determined. The controller determines whether validation criteria are satisfied for the current sensor value. In response to determining that the validation criteria are satisfied, the controller determines that the sensor is validated.

Abstract: Embodiments for managing metadata in a high density network attached storage system. A change file list is obtained though external or internal crawler processes. A slicer creates multiple slices of the entire fileshare to enable parallel backup of the slices. A backup engine creates a separate backup containers and separate metadata files for each slice. The individual metadata files are combined into a single consolidated metadata file, and the individual metadata files are then deleted. The consolidated metadata file contains all of the elements comprising the entire fileshare, and a corresponding container ID is also added to each entry of the file. Another table contains details of the sub-assets and their backup properties. A backup agent obtains the backup IDs for the individual sub-assets, using a job ID field for a backup query operating on the single consolidated metadata file.

Abstract: Example methods and systems for capability-aware service request distribution are described. In one example, a network element may obtain a set of capability information associated with multiple load balancers capable of service request handling and identify varying capability levels among the multiple load balancers. The network element may assign unequal path cost information to the multiple load balancers to indicate the varying capability levels. The unequal path cost information may include (a) a first path cost that is assigned to the first load balancer; and (b) a second path cost that is assigned to the second load balancer and different to the first path cost to indicate the lower capability level of the second load balancer compared to the first load balancer. In response to detecting a service request, the service request may be steered towards one of the multiple load balancers based on the unequal path cost information.
