Abstract: A system and method enables remote execution of a program, such as a debugger, using a remote management module. A packet daemon executing on the remote management module packetizes data received from a client and forwards it to a packet daemon executing on a computer, which receives the packet and forwards data contained therein to the program. Data from the program is packetized by the packet daemon executing on the computer and transmitted to the packet daemon executing on the remote management module, which forwards the data to a program specific daemon on the remote management module for forwarding to the client.

Abstract: A network caching device includes primary storage and secondary storage. The network caching device creates a set of metafile entries, each of which contains metadata for a logical grouping of related objects cached by the network caching device, and uses the set of metafile entries to reduce accesses to the secondary storage in response to requests for the objects.

Abstract: A peripheral coupled to a SCSI bus is isolated using a SCAM isolation step and the original SCSI identification bits (32 bytes) are read from the isolated peripheral into a host adapter. The host adapter then generates a relatively small number (for example, 4 bytes) of identification bits from the relatively large number of original SCSI identification bits. The small number of SCSI identification bits is stored in a non-volatile memory of the host adapter such that the memory location of the SCSI identification bits of a particular peripheral corresponds with the logical system identifier of that peripheral. Even if peripherals are removed from the bus and/or added to the bus, the small number of SCSI identification bits for a peripheral previously on the bus is redetermined and located in non-volatile memory of the host adapter so that the logical system identifier of the peripheral previously coupled to the bus is not changed.
