Abstract: A method for validating an operational flight path of an aircraft has been developed. First, a flight path for the aircraft is created using navigation, terrain and obstacle data retrieved from off-line databases. Next, real-time terrain and obstacle update information is captured from flight data sensors on board the aircraft while in flight. Also, light direction and range (LIDAR) data from LIDAR sensors on board the aircraft is collected. A boundary profile is calculated for the flight path based upon the real-time terrain and obstacle update information in combination with the LIDAR data. The flight path is validated using the boundary profile. The results of the validation of the flight path is generated as a report for the aircraft crew.

Abstract: A transition tool estimates a cutover time in a copy-free transition of storage objects. The transition tool determines how many storage objects of each type of storage object there are to transition from a source storage system to a destination storage system. The transition tool can measure an operation time for both the source storage system and the destination storage system. The transition tool can estimate an export duration using the source storage system operation time, the number of each type of storage object, and a number of operations for that type of storage object. The transition tool can estimate an import duration using the destination storage system operation time, the number of each type of storage object, and a number of operations for that type of storage object. A total cutover time can then be calculated from the export and import durations.

Abstract: A transition tool creates a reversion snapshot of storage objects and data in a copy-free transition method. The storage objects are transitioned from the formats that the source storage system uses to the formats that the destination storage system uses. During this transition, the transition tool can prevent automatic functions of the source and destination storage systems from deleting the reversion snapshots until a request to commit the transition is received. The transition tool can also monitor the amount of storage space available to each of the storage objects. Upon detecting that the amount of storage space is below a threshold, the transition tool can take the storage objects offline so that they are unavailable to client access. In response to receiving a rollback request, the transition tool can perform operations to restore the reversion snapshot of the storage objects and data on the source storage system.
