Abstract: A silver halide photographic light-sensitive material having at least one light-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer on a support, wherein the ratio of the total weight of potassium ion in the photographic light-sensitive material to the total weight of silver in the photographic light-sensitive material is 1.times.10.sup.-3 or less. The silver halide photosensitive material is improved in long-term storage stability.

Abstract: A common file system for a plurality of data processors according to the present invention includes a plurality of data processors, update history files capable of distributing and outputting history files to the data processors, a close and recovery controller for activating close processing of a block which is update-locked by a transaction task being processed in an abnormally-stopped data processor and recovery processing in units of update history files, and a close executer, activated by the close and recovery controller, for closing the block which is update-locked, thereby sending back an access request for the closed block to other operating data processors.
