摘要： According to an embodiment of the invention, a filer or other storage server is coupled to a network to store files for users of the network. Agents are coupled to the filer, and performs a scan or file walk for a Multi-Appliance Management Application (MMA) which is coupled to the filer and can monitor and manage the filer. A directory structure of the filer may be divided into two or more paths, each of which may be scanned by an independent agent. The results of the scan, or file walk, are saved to a database server. In this way, multiple agents may be used to scan a single storage server, and the amount of time required for the scan is reduced.

摘要： Segmentation of characters in a character set (10), made by placing a dark mark against a light background (12), is accomplished by establishing a vertical pixel projection for each pixel column in the image. The vertical pixel projections are filtered with a decay parameter so those pixel columns which contain only background have the highest projection. Thereafter, a set of "cut-points" (points of image segmentation) is obtained so that each cut-point coincides with a pixel column whose vertical pixel projection is both a local maxima and exceeds a predetermined threshold. The number of such cut-points is counted and if the number is not significantly greater than a predetermined number, the image is segmented along the cut-points. Otherwise, the vertical projections of those pixel columns coincident with the cut-points are filtered with a decreasing threshold to reduce the number of potential cut-points.

摘要翻译： 通过为图像中的每个像素列建立垂直像素投影来实现通过对浅色背景（12）放置暗标记而对字符集（10）中的字符进行分割。 垂直像素投影用衰减参数进行滤波，因此仅包含背景的像素列具有最高的投影。 此后，获得一组“切点”（图像分割点），使得每个切割点与垂直像素投影都是局部最大值并超过预定阈值的像素列重合。 对这样的切点的数量进行计数，如果数量不大于预定数量，则沿切割点分割图像。 否则，与切点相一致的那些像素列的垂直投影被用减小的阈值进行滤波，以减少潜在的切割点的数量。

摘要： A method, apparatus, and system are described herein, in which system resources and operations are assigned to roles in a role-based access control system, and the roles are assigned to a plurality of users. An RBAC system is used to resolve the client request to perform an operation on a resource, the RBAC system using a hierarchy of the plurality of resources to determine if a user is permitted to perform the operation on a parent of the resource in the hierarchy of resources. The RBAC system also determines if a user is permitted to perform the operation on the resource if a user group to which the user belongs to has the required access.

摘要： According to an embodiment of the invention, a directory on a storage server is scanned. A number of children of the directory is determined, and the number is added to a reference count. A child is scanned to collect information about the child, and the information is combined into a summary of the directory. After the child is scanned, the reference count is reduced by one. According to another embodiment of the invention, the storage server is scanned by an agent separate from the storage server.

摘要： A method, apparatus, and system for providing role-based access control (RBAC) for storage management are described herein. Resource-identifying information is stored in a role-based access database for a network storage system, in association with role-identifying information for each of a plurality of roles and operation-identifying information. The operation-identifying information indicates one or more authorized operations for each of the plurality of roles and the resource-identifying information identifies specific resources maintained by the network storage system. The role-identifying information, data indicating one or more authorized operations for at least one of the roles, and resource-specific identifying information in the role-based access database are used to determine whether to allow or deny a request from a network storage client to access a resource maintained by the network storage system.

摘要： The invention provides for a skimmer (10) interconnected to the floating roof (30) of a floating roof tank (300) wherein a mixture of at least two immiscible liquids, including a lowest specific gravity liquid (50) and at least one higher specific gravity liquid (40), are stored. The skimmer (10) of the present invention is placed on the underside (20) of the floating roof (30). A funnel (140) is attached to the underside (20) of the roof (30) to extend downwardly into the liquid mixture wherein the funnel (140) has formed perforations (500) near the attachment of the funnel (140) to the underside (20) of the roof (30). A float (110) is operatively connected to the funnel (140) and selectively closes over the perforations (500) when the float (110) is in the higher specific gravity liquids (40) and opens over the perforations when the float (110) is disposed in the lowest specific gravity liquid (50 ).

摘要： Centralized role-based access control (RBAC) for storage servers can include operating multiple storage servers, each configured to provide a set of clients with access to stored data, and using a separate network server to provide centralized RBAC. The network server may include an API proxy to proxy requests to access individual APIs of a storage server by an application which is external to the network server and the storage server and may control access to the individual APIs of the storage servers on a per-API, per-user and per-object basis. The API proxy may filter responses to API calls based on the access privileges of the user of the application which sent the API call. In some embodiments, the network server may implement a Windows domain server, an LDAP server or the like to evaluate security credentials of administrative users on behalf of multiple storage servers.
