Thorbjoern Donbaek Jensen has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Maintaining storage profile consistency in a cluster having local and shared storage
    Patent number: 10922305
    Abstract: A task list can list tasks to be performed on a target host machine. Certain tasks in the task list can be revised to produce a revised task list. Tasks directed to storage devices can be revised depending on whether or not the storage devices are shared by both the target host machine and a reference host machine.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: November 13, 2017
    Date of Patent: February 16, 2021
    Assignee: VMWARE, INC.
    Inventors: Erik Cota-Robles, Kanika Nema, Thorbjoern Donbaek Jensen

  • Maintaining storage profile consistency in a cluster having local and shared storage
    Patent number: 9830349
    Abstract: A per device state is introduced that indicates whether a storage device is shared clusterwide or not. The state may be populated by default based on detected device locality. Devices detected as local and those shared by only a subset of host machines in a cluster of machines may have the state set to “FALSE.” Devices which are shared by all the machines in a cluster may have the state set to “TRUE.” Locality of storage devices in a cluster may be modified using such state information. Operations upon other storage device state may be modified depending upon device sharing state.
