Abstract: A code coverage tool applies predefined rules applicable to user input to determine a test scenario from predefined test cases to best achieve a code coverage goal. For example, the code coverage goal may specify a target percentage of code coverage for areas, functions, conditions, or statement of interest to the user. The user input may select built-in rules or user supplied rules, and the user input may specify areas or functions that are mapped to the test cases. The built-in rules prioritize selected test cases for execution at run time to provide code coverage maximization with minimum utilization of resources. The user input may also specify a type of coverage, a test case priority, and a test case type.

Abstract: Disclosed are systems and methods relating to the deployment of an application. A plurality of nodes in one or more clusters of nodes may be identified. Inventory information for each of the plurality of nodes may be retrieved. The inventory information may provide configuration and state information associated with each node. For example, the inventory information retrieved from the plurality of nodes may include an internet protocol address or a hostname associated with each the plurality of nodes, and a version of software installed on each of the plurality of nodes. An order for deploying the software application may be determined based on the retrieved inventory information. The order may identify a sequence in which the software application is deployed to at least one of the plurality of nodes. The software application may be deployed to at least one of the plurality of nodes based on the determined order.

Abstract: Disclosed are systems and methods relating to profiling software and configuration information associated with one or more entities. In various implementations, software and configuration information associated with one or more entities may be retrieved. The retrieved software and configuration information may provide state information associated with the one or more entities. The retrieved information may be processed to identify one or more changes in the software and configuration information that is associated with the one or more entities. A report may be generated based on the retrieved information. The report may display identified changes in a state for at least one entity based on the changes in the software and configuration information that were identified during the processing.

Abstract: The invention is a system and method for backing up a single segment and/or database on a host server. Present backups of database servers only allow full backups of the entire host server. If there are errors with any of the backed up segments or databases, this can only be corrected by re-running the entire backup process, which is very time consuming and tedious. The invention is a method for identifying and isolating single segments on the host server. In this fashion, if only one segment was not backup up correctly, then once identified and repaired, that segment may be backed up. By isolating single segments, only a segment that was not backed up correctly can be replicated. This increases the granularity of the backup system and minimizes the need to backup the entire host, saving time and cost.

Abstract: A disk drive includes a disk and a head stack assembly for reading and writing to the disk. The head stack assembly includes a body portion defining a through bore that defines a pivot axis; an actuator arm cantilevered from the body portion and a head gimbal assembly coupled to the actuator arm. A coil portion is cantilevered from the body portion in an opposite direction from the actuator arm. The coil portion defines first and second actuator fork members and includes a coil supported by the first and second actuator fork members. A bobbin is configured to stiffen the coil portion, and is attached to an inner periphery of the coil. The bobbin may define a first truss and a second truss that crosses the first truss. An adhesive is disposed between the bobbin and the wound coil.

Abstract: A rotary drive mechanism for use with a timer/sequence switch in an appliance is presented. The mechanism converts linear motion from a cam tracker following a programmed cam track to rotary motion to drive a vent damper in an appliance. The rotary motion output is derived as a multiple of the input linear motion through a gear set. This input linear motion is translated to rotary motion imparted to a tracking rod, which is coupled through the gear set to an output actuating rod. Tracking by a tracking lobe is accommodated by a spring bias force applied though a bias lobe that counteracts the force applied by the cam track. Alternatively, tracking by a tracker is accommodated by a spring bias force applied through a torque arm of the tracking rod that also counteracts the force applied by the cam track.

Abstract: A disk drive including a disk drive base. The disk drive further includes at least one rotatable disk which includes a disk surface extending to an outer disk edge. The disk drive further includes a head stack assembly rotatably attached to the disk drive base in operable communication with the disk. The disk drive further includes an airflow suppressor comb coupled to the disk drive base and stationary relative to the disk drive base during operation of the disk drive. The comb includes a comb body disposed adjacent to the outer disk edge, and at least one tine extending from the comb body along the disk surface for mitigating disk rotation induced airflow upon the head stack assembly adjacent to the disk surface.

Abstract: A magnetic disk drive with a head stack assembly having a pass-through flex circuit cable is disclosed. The pass-through flex circuit cable is mounted to a side of the head stack assembly to extend straight forward in an initial unfolded position during handling and assembly and to then be folded over into a final position in a substantially opposite direction and with a desired flex cable trajectory. The head stack assembly includes a post, preferably of rectangular profile, that is integrally formed and spaced away from the actuator body. An outer surface of the post defines the flex cable trajectory. The flex circuit cable, located in the space between the actuator body and the post, extends past the post in the initial position and wraps around the post in the final folded over position. The flex circuit cable is secured to the post in the final folded over position, preferably with a flex clip that removably mounts to the post.
