摘要： Techniques are described for providing information about the performance of remote copy operations between a primary storage system and a remote storage system. Software probes monitor the status of primary storage system WRITE operations and of remote storage system WRITE operations. A comparison provides information about the performance of remote copy operations. The system allows measurement of a consistency time reflecting the approximate time of how far behind the remote copy is from the primary data in terms of WRITE operation time.

摘要： A method, apparatus, and system for auditing a storage system remotely that may include one or more host devices, one or more storage systems, and a service center. The host device includes host configuration information and a host probe. The storage system includes an audit agent, at least one resource, storage configuration information, and a storage probe. The service center includes an audit server that may include a global database, a data analyzer, and service information. The audit agent discovers the host devices and other apparatuses connected to the storage system containing the audit agent. The audit agent gathers collected information by collecting the host configuration information, measured data from the host probes, the storage configuration information, measured data from the storage probes, and configuration information and measured data from the connected apparatuses and sends the collected information to a remote audit server securely.

摘要： A system and method for watermarking data that includes a client device, a file system manager, a file server, and a storage network. The file system manager sets watermark control information. The file server includes: (1) a file writing process including a file watermark examination procedure and an action procedure, the action procedure determining an action based on a result of the file watermark examination; and (2) a file reading process including a watermark definition procedure, a file handle/memory preparation procedure, a file data copy procedure, and a watermark insertion procedure. During a read request the watermark definition procedure determines whether a file to be read is to be watermarked based on a user at the client device that requested to read the file. Whether a write request is processed or not is based on the user and whether the file to be written contains a watermark.

摘要： A device and method of displaying images and data on a display device. The device and method displays still and moving images in which at least one icon is associated and displayed with each image on a screen. A single screen may contain several images which change over time. As the images change so do the icons associated with them. Upon selection of an icon by a viewer, the device and method will display one of several possible advertisements or information associated with the icon. The selection of which advertisement or piece of information is based on information stored about the viewer. This information would include data concerning the viewer's age, income, address and hobbies. A list of selections made by a viewer is maintained and may be displayed at the viewer's request. The system may also force the display of advertisements if desired by advertisers.

摘要： A system for enabling more efficient processing of query operation of a database includes a query provider coupled to a database system, by a network. A storage system is coupled to each of the query provider and the database system. The database system includes a return path selector which chooses whether to return the results of queries to the query provider by storing the results into the shared storage system, or by sending them over the network. There may also be provided the capability of storing query data in the storage system for use by the database in executing the queries. A key is used to locate the results or the query data in the storage system, and another information field is used to control access to the stored query data and/or results.

摘要： A support method for helping the user find a desired program from a collection of recorded television programs easily and quickly, and a recording/reproducing apparatus using this method. The recorded program viewing support system, when recording a television program, records electronic program information on the program, classifies the electronic program information according to predefined program category criteria, and successfully assigns predefined category numbers (recording channels) to the program to be recorded. Before the user views a recorded program, the user specifies the number of the recorded channel. A recorded channel number is allocated with a category item and hence the user can easily know the contents of the recorded programs. The user can change the channel number successively or directly specify it by using a remote controller to find a desired program easily and quickly. When disk media such as HDD and DVD-RAM are used as a storage in particular, the recorded programs can be randomly accessed allowing the user to zap through recorded programs.

摘要： For each of multiple migration policies, a server system 2 that accesses a storage apparatus 10 obtains a resource use amount needed to execute the migration. Each of the migration policies includes information for specifying a resource use amount of the server system 2 needed to execute the migration according to the policy. Then, the server system 2 allocates an amount of usable resources to each of the policies in accordance with the resource use amount obtained for the policy; in the migration according to each of the policies, allocates a certain amount of resources usable for executing the migration, to the virtual server which serves as either of a migration destination and a migration source, while determining the certain amount of resources within the amount of resources allocated to the policy; and executes the migration according to each of the policies in accordance with the resource use amount allocated to the policy.
