Abstract: Embodiments of a method for providing cluster-wide, application consistent operations in a distributed network by creating a single volume snapshot object on a server for all of volumes of a distributed application. A snapshot controller creates volume snapshot content for each volume, and an external snapshot process, upon creation of the volume snapshot content, creates a snapshot of each volume on a backend storage device, wherein all snapshots for each volume are created at the same time to ensure consistency across all volumes being snapshotted at a certain moment.

Abstract: Automatic dry sprinkler assemblies for fire protection systems. Preferred embodiments of the automatic dry sprinkler assemblies include a tubular outer housing having an inlet, an outlet opening, and an internal surface configuration proximate the outlet opening that defines an internal landing surface and a cantilevered centering wall. A fluid deflection member is spaced from the outlet opening along a fluid flow path of the assembly. A fluid control assembly disposed within the outer housing for axial translation from an unactuated state to an actuated state of the sprinkler assembly to control fluid flow from the inlet to the outlet for fluid discharge along the fluid flow path to the deflection member. The internal landing surface and cantilevered centering wall are axially spaced from one another proximate the outlet opening to circumscribe and confront components of the fluid control assembly to facilitate centering and axial translation of the fluid control assembly.

Abstract: An inflation device that draws air in from two sources, such as air compressor and ambient air, can inflate an object (e.g., air bag). When a valve is opened, airflow from the air compressor is provided from the inflation device to the object. The airflow may cause airflow from an additional source (e.g., ambient air) into the inflation device. Additionally, a button used to control the valve is also used to initiate power to an assembly that includes pressure sensor (used to measure pressure of the airflow) and a display (used to present the current pressure as measured by the pressure sensor). The inflation device can automatically power down at a predetermined time after the button is released.

Abstract: Aspects of the present technology comprise a positioning and stabilising structure to hold a seal-forming structure in a therapeutically effective position on a head of a patient. The seal-forming structure may be constructed and arranged to form a seal with a region of the patient's face surrounding an entrance to the patient's airways for sealed delivery of a flow of air at a therapeutic pressure of at least 4 cmH2O with respect to ambient air pressure throughout the patient's respiratory cycle in use. The positioning and stabilising structure may comprise at least one gas delivery tube to deliver the flow of air to the entrance of a patient's airways via the seal-forming structure. The positioning and stabilising structure may comprise an adjustment mechanism for adjustment of a length of the at least one gas delivery tube to enable the positioning and stabilising structure to fit different size heads.

Abstract: Automatic dry sprinkler assemblies for fire protection systems. Preferred embodiments of the automatic dry sprinkler assemblies include a tubular outer housing having an inlet, an outlet opening, and an internal surface configuration proximate the outlet opening that defines an internal landing surface and a cantilevered centering wall. A fluid deflection member is spaced from the outlet opening along a fluid flow path of the assembly.
