Abstract: A method for executing a write request in a clustered computing environment, comprising a plurality of computers connected in a network, including at least one client computer accessing data blocks stored on a first storage device of a shared aggregated pool of storage devices. Data blocks stored on the first storage device are linked to data blocks stored on at least one second storage device of the pool by error recovery data stored on a third storage device of the pool. When a client computer sends a write request to the first storage device for a new data block to be stored at an address on the first storage device, the new data block is written at the address on the first storage device. New error recovery data is calculated for the data block and is written to the third storage device.

Abstract: The invention relates to a computer rack, frame or system having a direct current power supply positioned at the upper portion of the rack. In one variation, the DC power supply is placed in the highest shelf in the computer rack. In another variation, the DC power supply is placed on top of the computer rack. In yet another variation, a dual column computer rack with a back-to-back configuration is implemented with DC power supplies placed in a top shelf of the one of the computer columns. The DC power supply may comprise of one or more direct current power supply modules configured to provide fail over protection. In another aspect of the invention, the power supply modules are placed in a separate rack and provide direct current to support computers in one or more computer racks.

Abstract: One or more air deflection assemblies are used to redirect air emitted by computers in a rack-based computer system. These air deflection assemblies may be used to redirect air emerging horizontally out of the back sides of computers into a vertically-oriented exhaust plenum. This can eliminate the need for exhaust fans to draw heated air through the exhaust plenums and out of the rack.
