Techniques for application copy management in container environments are disclosed. For example, a method obtains a copy of an application program, wherein the copy of the application program is a copy generated for a first cluster of a container-based information processing system within which the application program is deployed. The method then utilizes the copy of the application program from the first cluster to deploy the application program in a second cluster of the container-based information processing system.

Copy management for container-based applications

An apparatus comprises a processing device configured to receive a create volume request to create a given storage volume for a software container instance running on a container host device, to parse the given request to identify replication-related parameters for the given storage volume, the identified replication-related parameters comprising an availability parameter. The processing device is also configured, responsive to the availability parameter specifying that the given storage volume should be configured with enhanced availability, to create a first logical storage volume on a first storage array and a second logical storage volume on a second storage array, to establish a replication link between the first logical storage volume on the first storage array and the second logical storage volume on the second storage array, and to mount the first and second logical storage volumes to a designated volume mount point in the software container instance.

Creating high availability storage volumes for software containers

Method and apparatus for receiving an access request for an array from a controller of a platform that abstracts, pools and automates physical storage for a data center, processing the access request with an API service, and analyzing the access request by a controller service after processing by the API service. The controller then requests a third party driver from a driver module for the array. The third party driver processes the request to access the array and receive data from the array.

Example embodiments of the present invention relate to a method, a system, and a computer program product for managing a plurality of storage providers to allocate a second storage provider as an active storage provider. The method includes monitoring respective health states of a plurality of storage providers in a storage infrastructure and determining an unhealthy health state of a first storage provider, operating as an active storage provider, among the plurality of storage providers. The method also includes managing the plurality of storage providers to allocate a second storage provider, operating as a standby storage provider, among the plurality of storage providers as the active storage provider.

Method and apparatus for highly available storage management using storage providers

In one aspect, a method includes reading a configuration file to obtain settings of device drivers for a cloud computing storage array, enumerating a backend driver as the cloud computing storage array in a data storage system, instantiating a default port for the cloud computing storage array and accessing the cloud computing storage array using the data storage system.

Enabling heterogeneous storage management using storage from cloud computing platform

In a system that separates the control (management) layer from the data layer of a distributed storage system, an application programming interface (API) provider is presented that manages storage awareness of the virtual control servers with at least one virtual array and underlying physical arrays. The system described herein advantageously enables multi-tenant support to provide individual and/or isolated access to shared storage resources among multiple tenants and offers improved scalability and operations in a cloud deployment.

Secure multi-tenant virtual control server operation in a cloud environment using API provider

Information is managed by receiving at a data source device, from an application running on a data source device, an instruction associated with a file system object. It is determined at the data source device if the instruction is able to be satisfied by a file system running on the data source device. If it is determined that the instruction is not able to be satisfied by the file system, the instruction is performed without the services of the file system; the application is unaware that the file system object is managed by an entity other than the file system running on the data source device.

An approach for coordinating backlight intensity and image luminance changes. For one aspect, in response to determining that a display-related event has occurred during a vertical frame period indicating a subsequent change associated with at least one of a backlight intensity and a frame buffer palette is to be undertaken, an interrupt is enabled. During subsequent interrupt processing, associated changes to the backlight intensity and the frame buffer palette are applied in a coordinated manner. For a specific implementation, an approach is provided for a graphics controller driver to synchronize response to changes in display backlight, color-space controls, and in the luminance of images, wherein said changes can come from different sources, occur at a different rates, and have different latencies, for the purpose of applying graphics settings responses such that those effects occur at a visually co-incident interval so as to substantially minimize discordant visual artifacts.

Method and apparatus to synchronize backlight intensity changes with image luminance changes

An access point in a wireless network is connected to wireless devices. When any of the devices becomes inaccessible, the device sends a notification to the access point to indicate the inaccessibility. The access point then receives and stores incoming messages that are destined for the device. The access point forwards the messages to the device when the device is ready to receive the message.
