Abstract: A system and method for tracking fiber along a textile supply chain aids in product tracking and can verify fiber source/origin. However, verifying the fiber origin and type in a textile product purchased at a retail location back to the bale is complicated by the nature of textile processes along the supply chain. The system as described in the present application addresses complications, such as contamination/cross-contamination, and is used to track fiber from bales of fiber processed into a textile product throughout a sequence of textile operations. The system captures, for each textile operation, a) input information, b) output information, and c) equipment information related to the equipment used in the textile operation. The output information is associated with the input information of a subsequent textile operation, thereby associating the input information and output information, for each textile operation, with the fiber information for the bales of fiber.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method, according to one embodiment, includes: receiving, at a clustered filesystem from a formatted filesystem, a request to perform a data integrity check for a portion of data. A determination is made as to whether the request includes a filesystem type of the portion of data, and in response to determining that the request includes a filesystem type of the portion of data, another determination is made as to whether the clustered filesystem supports the data integrity check for the filesystem type. In response to determining the clustered filesystem supports the data integrity check, another determination is made as to whether the portion of data is currently available. Furthermore, the computer-implemented method includes causing the data integrity check to be performed in response to determining that the portion of data is currently available. Results of performing the data integrity check are also sent to the formatted filesystem.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method, according to one embodiment, includes: sending management data to a designated common cell in a namespace of a central storage location from one or more remote storage locations. The management data corresponds to object data stored at the one or more remote storage locations. the object data stored at each of the one or more remote storage locations is further transferred to a respective cell in the namespace of the central storage location. Moreover, a modified consistency hashing algorithm configuration is implemented. The modified consistency hashing algorithm configuration routes updates of existing object data in the one or more remote storage locations to the respective cells in the central storage location. Other systems, methods, and computer program products are described in additional embodiments.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method, according to one embodiment, includes: dividing a namespace in a central storage location into more than one cell. A first of the more than one cell is a common cell, which is configured to store management data received from remote storage locations coupled to the central storage location. Each of the remaining cells are configured to store object data received from a respective one of the remote storage locations. Management data received from the remote storage locations is stored in the common cell of the central storage location. Object data is also received, where the object data corresponds to the management data received from the remote storage locations. Furthermore, the received object data is stored in the respective cells of the central storage location. Other systems, methods, and computer program products are described in additional embodiments.
