  • Publication number: 20230086377
    Abstract: Systems and methods analyze for installing dependencies required for the installation of prerequisite components of cloud infrastructure to be installed in a disconnected environment are presented herein. An automation playbook generated after an assessment of a disconnected environment may be analyzed to determine a set of dependencies required by the automation playbook (e.g., packages and files required by each installation playbook called by the automation playbook). Each of the dependencies may be brought into the disconnected environment and installed as operating system packaging units, or deployed as containerized services. After all of the dependencies have been installed, a processing device may generate an installation report indicating whether the installation of each prerequisite component was successful or not. Upon determining that each of the prerequisite components was successfully installed, the processing device may install the cloud infrastructure on the disconnected environment.

  • Patent number: 6503696
    Abstract: A color developing composition is stable in the presence of calcium ion because of the presence of a specific polyphosphonic acid sequestering agent. The composition also comprises a color developing agent in free base form and an antioxidant for the color developing agent. The calcium ion sequestering agent is morpholinomethanediphosphonic acid or a salt thereof. This sequestering agent can be used alone to control calcium ion precipitates, or in combination with a polyaminopolyphonic acid or salt thereof. The composition can be used to provide images in various color photographic silver halide materials.

  • Patent number: 6479224
    Abstract: Color reversal photographic elements can be effectively processed to provide positive color images using bleaching compositions in which the primary bleaching agent is a ferric complex of 1,3-propylenediaminetetraacetic acid or a salt thereof. Any potential precipitation of the bleaching agent is inhibited by the presence of at least 0.005 mol/l of an organic polyphosphonic acid, an aminopolysuccinic acid, or a polycarboxylic acid containing at least one hydroxy group as a compound. This compound can be added directly to the bleaching composition or introduced from carryover from a previous photoprocessing step, such as a prebleaching step using color reversal processing.

  • Patent number: 6416940
    Abstract: A color developing composition is stable in the presence of calcium ion because of the presence of two specific types of polyphosphonic acid sequestering agents. The composition also comprises a color developing agent in free base form and an antioxidant for the color developing agent. The mixture of sequestering agents includes a polyaminopolyphosphonic acid and either a hydroxyalkylidenediphosphonic acid or morpholinomethanediphosphonic acid. The composition can be used to provide images in various color photographic silver halide materials.
