A mechanism is provided for configuring a set of devices for a given machine attached to a storage area network. The initial program load firmware and network adapter firmware for each machine on the storage area network are modified to query a storage area network appliance for lists of devices. The storage area network appliance may be identified by a world wide name and may store lists of boot devices, root volume group devices, primary devices, and secondary devices for each machine on the storage area network. The storage area network appliance then listens for queries and returns the appropriate list of devices based on query type and/or boot type. The boot type for a machine may be set to normal boot, maintenance boot, or install boot.

A scroll-based volume controller detects a user selection to scroll through a browser window loaded with data comprising at least one display element, wherein an audio element is associated with the display element and wherein the size of the displayable data is larger than the display area of the browser window. The scroll-based volume controller, responsive to detecting the user selection to scroll through the browser window, calculates a change in position of the display element relative to the browser window. The audio element may include an audio file that is downloaded or streamed to the browser. Next, the scroll-based volume controller automatically adjusts a volume of the associated audio element based on the calculated change in position of the display element relative to the browser window, such that the volume of the audio element, associated with said display element, is automatically adjusted as the position of the display element changes relative to the particular browser window when the user scrolls through the data in the browser window, without the user having to separately select to adjust the volume of the audio element using a separate volume control input.

A method, system, and program are provided for dynamically mapping chat session invitation history. A chat controller for facilitating a chat session enables chat participants to invite additional users to join in the chat session. The chat controller dynamically generates a mapping of the chat participants to graphically represent a separate correspondence between each invited additional user and each inviting chat participant. The mapping is displayed within a user interface of a current participant or an invited additional user. Further, the displayed mapping is dynamically updated to reflect additional invitation history as the chat session continues.

An electronic calendar management system for managing a plurality of meeting invitees to limit meeting attendance to a predetermined number of attendees. A meeting planner schedules a meeting using an electronic calendar. A meeting attendee profile (MAP) is defined, comprising parameters that determine the criteria for selecting meeting invitees. The parameters of the MAP are applied against a pool of potential invitee profiles stored in a database to select invitees to the meeting. An electronic mail (email) meeting invitation is then generated and sent to the selected invitees. Invitee responses for each MAP are managed to limit meeting attendance to a predetermined number of attendees. The MAP can be revised by a remedial action, such as the generation of a revised email meeting invitation.

A system and method for dynamically adjusting or modifying the password expiration period for a given user based upon how a user accesses the password-protected resource. The tighter the physical control of how a user can access a resource results in a loosening or maintaining of the password expiration period to be a relatively long period of time, whereas the looser the physical control of how a user can access a resource results in a tightening of the password expiration period to be a relatively short period of time. The password expiration period is adjusted based on both actual usage patterns as well as variances in such usage patterns.
