摘要:
Techniques for adjusting the frequency of data backups and initiating event-driven backups in a storage system are disclosed herein. In one embodiment, a self-adjusting backup frequency, known as a “Change Rate Objective,” is defined to conduct or delay backups for one or more volumes in the storage system on the basis of an associated policy value. The Change Rate Objective may be tied to one or more business or data activity events, such as the amount and type of data changes since a last backup. The storage system may also be tailored to conduct or delay full or incremental backups on the basis of a Change Rate Objective that measures whether a full or incremental or differential backup is more appropriate. Various data or system failures, or data or business events may also be used to adjust the retention periods of continuous data protection (CDP) data and delay a rollup of CDP data.

One aspect of the present invention includes a configuration of a storage management system that enables the performance of deduplication activities at both the client (source) and at the server (target) locations. The location of deduplication operations can then be optimized based on system conditions or predefined policies. In one embodiment, seamless switching of deduplication activities between the client and the server is enabled by utilizing uniform deduplication process algorithms and accessing the same deduplication index (containing information on the hashed data chunks). Additionally, any data transformations on the chunks are performed subsequent to identification of the data chunks. Accordingly, with use of this storage configuration, the storage system can find and utilize matching chunks generated with either client- or server-side deduplication.

A point-in-time backup image is selected from a plurality of backup images of an image on a source computer system to be applied to the target computer system. A first assessment value is associated with an extent to which critical files and recovery metadata are included in the selected backup based on an include list of critical files and recovery metadata to include in the backup. A second assessment value comprises a backup status of the critical files and the recovery metadata. A third assessment value is indicative of an extent to which the selected backup satisfies requirements of a retention policy. A fourth assessment value is indicative of an extent to which computational resources and device drivers in the target computer system are compatible. An overall assessment value for the selected backup image is determined based on the determined first, second, third, and fourth assessment values.

Various embodiments are provided for facilitation of data retention using logical objects. Following an operation creating a redundant copy of the data performed on a scheduled interval, a logical object containing a number of managed file versions, represented by a number of member objects for a recovery point, is created. The logical object is assigned a policy of a data retention policy construct associated with the recovery point. The logical object is adapted for reassignment between policies of the data retention policy construct associated with various recovery points. During the reassignment, the plurality of member objects representing the plurality of managed file versions are logically retained instead of performing a data copy operation to associate the plurality of managed file versions with another recovery point.

An angiographic injector system and a method of controllably delivering medical fluid to a patient from an angiographic injector system are disclosed. A multiple processor control system is used to actively control the injection process and to monitor sensed functions of the system. The multiple processors provide dual redundancy safety circuits for critical control functions such as syringe motor drive speed and current. A motor/servo-amplifier nested control function is also disclosed. A unique method and apparatus are disclosed for establishing injection parameter default values just prior to an injection procedure that are based on physiological values of the patient to be treated. The injector system uses an interactive display panel that presents sequenced set-up screens to the user and which enables the user to select injection procedures, parameters and other modes of operation directly through the interactive panel.

A dual band radio receiver is provided. The dual band radio receiver includes a local oscillator configured to generate a local oscillator (LO) signal. The dual band radio receiver also includes first and second mixer devices. The first mixer device is configured to receive the LO signal and an RF signal included within a first band. Responsive to these signals, the first mixer device outputs a first IF signal. The second mixer device is configured to receive the LO signal and a second RF signal included within a second band. In response to these signals the second mixer device outputs a second IF signal. The local oscillator is configured to operate within a third band located between the first and second bands.

Disclosed are ready-to-eat, crumb structured, baked snack food products that are shelf-stable and additionally provide the benefits of desirable moistness, chewiness, fast mouth dispersion upon eating, and reduced tackiness and gumminess. These products are characterized by a unique saccharide mixture which comprises mono-, di- and trisaccharides, a low level of tetra- and higher saccharides, and sucrose; a low moisture content characterized by a water activity from about 0.40 to about 0.75; and a starch component such that the saccharide to starch ratio of the product is from about 1:1 to about 4.5:1. Also disclosed are wet and dry prepared culinary mixes containing the same unique saccharide mixture from which these same baked snack products can be prepared.
