Abstract:
An apparatus and method alternately transmit power from a first active power factor corrector (22, 122, 222), receiving power from a first alternating current (AC) source (27), and a second active power factor corrector (24, 124, 224), receiving power from a second AC source (28) having at least one line or neutral in common with the first AC power source (27) and in parallel with the first active power factor corrector (22, 122, 222), to a load (30). Current circulation from the first active power factor corrector (22, 122, 222) to the second active power factor corrector (24, 124, 224) and from the second active power factor corrector (24, 124, 224) to the first active power factor corrector (22, 122, 222) is inhibited.
Abstract:
Provided is a method of discovering multicast group memberships in a software defined network. A multicast group membership query message is sent only to a selected network device in the network. The network device forwards the multicast group membership query message to a host computer system connected to the network device and recognizes a multicast group membership request from the host computer system in response to the group membership query message.
Abstract:
Displaying information technology conditions with heat maps includes determining a severity value of current issues for each configuration item in an information technology system; generating a graph of the configuration items that visually depicts topological relationships between the configuration items, the graph having a heat map overlay; and assigning pixel colors for each configuration item in the heat map overlay according to their severity value.
Abstract:
Described herein are techniques for performing a channel scan based on a mobility state of a device. The mobility state of a device relative to an access point may be determined using time-of-flight information. A channel scan may be performed based on the mobility state determination.
Abstract:
Searching, according to the type information of a network device, for a transport layer protocol supported by the network device in a transport layer architecture of a network configuration protocol (NETCONF) configuration framework and definition information which is to be used to implement a connection to the network device. Establishing a NETCONF session to the network device by using the transport layer protocol and the definition information. During establishment of the NETCONF session, comparing a first NETCONF capability set obtained from the network device with a second NETCONF capability set which is supported by the NMS and is defined in a metadata definition file. Assigning an intersection of the first NETCONF capability set and the second NETCONF capability set as an active capability set. Then, performing a network configuration access to the network device based on the active capability set.
Abstract:
A method for managing a number of Ethernet links includes identifying a number of Ethernet links to utilize a number of channels of a cable based on a number of capabilities and a number of policies of a number of media access controllers (MACs) and a number of physical layer entities (PHYs), determining a number of Ethernet link types to be configured for the cable based on the capabilities and policies of the MACs and PHYs, negotiating a number of parameters to allow multi-channel ports of a number of nodes connected to the cable to establish communications through the Ethernet links based on the determined Ethernet link types and the utilized channels, and managing the cable configuration describing the MACs to be supported by the channels within the cable based on the policies.
Abstract:
A method is described herein. The method includes generating an allocation map for a backup. The method also includes storing the allocation map in a storage device. The method further includes reading the allocation map to skip reading empty blocks during storing of a file from the backup. The method also further includes and reading the allocation map to skip writing zeros to a formatted target disk during a restore session of a file from the backup.
