摘要:
System, computer program product, and method embodiments for communication between a kernel operational on a storage subsystem and a key manager (KM) through a hardware management console (HMC) to provide encryption support are provided. In one embodiment, an event request is initiated by the kernel to the KM to execute an event flow. Pursuant to a communication request by the kernel to the HMC, a socket of the HMC is opened along a communication path between the KM and the kernel according to an event flow type selected by the KM for the event flow. Pursuant to a data request by the kernel to the KM, data including a data payload is sent by the KM to the kernel, the data payload corresponding to the selected event flow type.

Provided are a computer program product, system, and method for determining whether to extend a drain time to copy data blocks from a first storage to a second storage. A data structure is generated indicating data blocks in the first storage to copy to the second storage. A drain operation is initiated to copy the data blocks indicated in the first storage to the second storage for a drain time period. Write requests to the data blocks indicated in the data structure are queued during the drain time period, wherein the queued write requests are not completed while queued. Metric information based on the writes that occur to data blocks in the first storage are gathered during the drain time period; and in response to expiration of the drain time period, a determination is made from the gathered metric information of whether to continue the drain operation or terminate the drain operation.

A method, system, and computer program product for providing dynamic context assistance to a user of a system, such as a storage system. One or more current command line interface (CLI) entries that are entered in a CLI of the system are received and a current state of the system is determined. Dynamic context assistance is then generated for one or more current CLI entries based on entered values of the one or more CLI entries. In this regard, the dynamic context assistance can be generated and displayed in a text or graphical form when one or more dynamic context assist keys are entered in the CLI in conjunction with the current CLI entry.

An adapter for wagering game systems designed to communicate using a first protocol is provided that communicates with systems designed to communicate using a second protocol different from the first protocol. The adapter may provide a translation service that translates from the first protocol to the second protocol and vice-versa. Additionally, the adapter may provide a transaction clearing house service. The translation and transaction clearing house services provided by the adapter can be used to access disparate systems using disparate protocols. For example, a wagering game system that is designed to communicate with other wagering game systems using a first protocol can use the adapter to access loyalty points systems and other systems that are designed to use a second communications protocol.

A wagering game system and its operations are described herein. In some embodiments, the operations can include monitoring, at a wagering game machine, base wagering game activity associated with one or more base wagering games that are presented during a wagering game session. The operations can also include generating and transmitting one or more activity notification messages comprising at least an indication of the base wagering game activity to a player tracking server to cause the player tracking server to reward the base wagering game activity. The operations can further include generating and transmitting login and logout notification messages to a secondary game server to cause the secondary game server to determine secondary wagering game activity associated with one or more secondary wagering games presented during the wagering game session. The secondary wagering game activity can be used by the player tracking server to reward the secondary wagering game activity.

A linked progressive wagering system, comprises a first progressive wagering subsystem comprising X jackpots, each of the X jackpots displayed on a first meter. The system further comprises a second progressive wagering subsystem having Y jackpots, each of the Y jackpots displayed on a second meter. The system further comprises at least one wager input device, a progressive pool, and at least one controller. The at least one controller is operative to (i) receive a signal from the at least one wager input device of receipt of a first wager on the first progressive wagering subsystem, (ii) generate an increment, the increment comprising a portion of the first wager, (iii) transfer the increment into the progressive pool, (iv) add a first increase equal to the increment to the X jackpots, and (v) add a second increase equal to the increment to the Y jackpots.
摘要:
A priority-based method for replicating data is disclosed herein. In one embodiment, such a method includes providing a primary storage device and a secondary storage device. Multiple storage areas (e.g., volumes, groups of volumes, etc.) are designated for replication from the primary storage device to the secondary storage device. A priority level is assigned to each of the storage areas. Using these priority levels, the method replicates the storage areas from the primary storage device to the secondary storage device in accordance with their assigned priority levels. Higher priority storage areas are replicated prior to lower priority storage areas. A corresponding computer program product and system are also disclosed herein.
