摘要： Upgrading a multi-tiered application is provided. In response to receiving a request to upgrade a multi-tiered application, wherein components of the multi-tiered application are deployed across a plurality of virtual machines, an appropriate integrated patch is selected for the upgrade. The selected integrated patch includes an integrated set of patches for the components of the multi-tiered application, state update data, and order constraints. The components of the multi-tiered application specified in the selected integrated patch are upgraded by using the integrated set of patches and order constraints. In addition, the state of the components of the multi-tiered application are updated by using the state update data. Then, the updated state of the multi-tiered application is saved to storage.

摘要： A computer implemented method, apparatus, and computer usable program product for managing a distributed software application. The process identifies metadata describing a set of dependencies of a set of software components in the distributed software application from data associated with the set of software components. The process then identifies a sequence for changing an operational state of the set of software components of the distributed software application from the metadata to form an identified sequence. Thereafter, the process changes the operational state of the set of software components using the identified sequence.

摘要： Deploying a set of virtual software resource templates to a plurality of nodes is provided. The process identifies a set of virtual machine images and metadata to form a set of virtual software resource templates. The process creates a model that indicates a performance metric based on a number of nodes on which a number of virtual machine images is deployed. The process receives a quality of service requirement. The process determines, using the model, a sufficient number of virtual software resource templates in the set of virtual software resource templates and a sufficient number of nodes in the plurality of nodes to fulfill the quality of service requirement. The process deploys the sufficient number of virtual software resource templates on the sufficient number of nodes using the metadata.

摘要： The present invention relates to a method for the customization of virtual machine images. The method comprises identifying and retrieving a virtual machine image template. A customized virtual machine image is created from the virtual machine image template. The customized virtual machine image template being created by identifying at least one file-system or memory image that is associated with the virtual machine image template, identifying within the at least one file-system or memory image at least one data set, wherein the at least one data set comprises metadata. The metadata contains information detailing the required execution context customization aspects for at least one specified image subset of the virtual machine. Execution context-specific information that is required to customize the image subset of the virtual machine is retrieved. Further, the image subset of the virtual machine is modified in accordance with the retrieved execution context-specific information.

摘要： An embodiment of an apparatus includes first and second core regions, first and second conductors, and an isolation region. The first core region has a first permeability, and the first conductor is disposed in the first core region. The second core region has a second permeability, and the second conductor is disposed in the second core region. And the isolation region is disposed between the first and second core regions, and has a third permeability that is significantly different than the first and second permeabilities. For example, the first and second conductors may be windings of respective first and second inductors, and the isolation region, which may be attached to, or integral with, the first and second core regions, may reduce the amount of magnetic coupling between the inductors to a level that is negligible, such that the inductors may be used in applications that call for magnetically uncoupled inductors.
