A first request is received from a first user to access a first file system management objects (FSMOs) of a first tenant unit (TU), the first TU being one of a plurality of TUs. The first FSMO is one of a plurality of FSMOs, each FSMO containing namespace information of a particular tenant. In response to the first request, it is determined whether the first user is authorized to access the first FSMO, including identifying TUs that are associated with the first user, determining whether the first TU is included in the TUs, and if so, determining whether the first FSMO is included in FSMOs associated with the first TU. In response to determining that the first FSMO is included in a set of one or more FSMOs that are associated with the first TU, the first user to access the first FSMO is allowed.

System and method for secure multi-tenancy in datadomain operating system (DDOS), a purpose built backup appliance (PBBA) operating system

Exemplary methods for providing secure multi-tenancy in a Purpose Built Backup Appliance include creating a set of tenant-units (TUs), associating file system management objects (FSMOs) and users with the TUs. The methods further include maintaining a protocol config-metadata store based on the association of the FSMOs and users with the TUs. In one embodiment, in response to a first request from a first user to access a first FSMO of a first TU, the methods include determining whether the first user is authorized to access the first FSMO based on information of the protocol config-metadata store, and in response to the protocol config-metadata store indicating the first user is authorized to access the first FSMO, allowing the first user to access the first FSMO.

System and method for secure multi-tenancy in an operating system of a storage system

A method for provisioning a plurality of heterogeneous operating systems on a plurality of target hosts that includes for each of the plurality of target hosts, obtaining a type of operating system (OS) to be provisioned on the target host, populating an OS profile model based on the type of operating system obtained, activating a deployment service based on the type of operating system, and provisioning the target host using a deployment service and the OS profile model.

Method and apparatus for provisioning heterogeneous operating systems onto heterogeneous hardware systems

A system for providing real-time cluster configuration data within a clustered computer network including a plurality of clusters, including a primary node in each cluster wherein the primary node includes a primary repository manager, a secondary node in each cluster wherein the secondary node includes a secondary repository manager, and wherein the secondary repository manager cooperates with the primary repository manager to maintain information at the secondary node consistent with information maintained at the primary node.
