Abstract: Method and system for asynchronously dispersing Disaster Recovery (DR) enabling data between a plurality of storage sites. The method comprises: receiving, at a primary storage site, a written block and a write frequency counter associated with the written block. In case the write frequency counter is below a threshold: receiving information dispersal parameters including number indicative of a size difference between said written block and DR enabling data based on said written block; number of slices to slice said DR enabling data into and data indicative of DR storage sites of said plurality of storage sites for storing said slices. Further calculating DR enabling data based on written block, wherein DR enabling data is larger than said written block by size difference; slicing DR enabling data in accordance with number of slices; and dispersing slices in accordance with data indicative of DR storage sites.

Abstract: A method of controlling volatile memory (VM) and VM controller operatively connectable to VM. The method includes: intercepting reset signal intended to cause reset of, at least, VM; assessing transfer-related (TR) state related to the VM; blocking the intercepted reset signal from reaching VM if the assessed TR state does not meet predefined criterion, and transferring the reset signal to VM if the assessed TR state meets the predefined criterion. The VM controller is configured to: receive a reset signal originating in computer system and intended to cause reset of, at least, the VM; detect if the VM has been powered-up during a predetermined timeframe prior to the receipt of the reset signal; and block the received reset signal from reaching the VM if the VM powering-up has not been detected and transfer the reset signal to the VM if the VM powering-up has been detected.

Abstract: There are provided a computer node configured to operate in a distributed storage system (DSS) comprising interconnected computer nodes and storage-related resources and a method of operating thereon. The method comprises: detecting by the computer node in the DSS an unconnected storage-related resource connectable to the computer node; searching by a computer node a plug-in required to meet Service Level Specification (SLS) associated with the computer node, thereby giving rise to a found plug-in; and upon associating, by the computer node, the unconnected storage-related resource with the found plug-in, connecting the unconnected storage-related resource to the computer node.
