Abstract: Apparatus, systems and methods for managing and aggregating cached data of aggregated electronic devices for sharing functionality to fulfill requested tasks, while monitoring and controlling battery energy levels in the electronic devices to ensure sufficient battery power is available, individually or collectively, to fulfill a requested task. The electronic devices are positioned in proximity to a computing device for sharing cached hierarchies of each device as well as hierarchies of the aggregated devices. The electronic devices are provided in proximity to a charge distribution unit (CDU) for determining if each electronic device has enough battery power to complete all, or a portion, of a requested task. If any device needs charging, the CDU allocates and distributes battery power from one or more other device batteries and/or power outlet. The charging power is then transferred to the electronic device in need of charging to fulfill the requested task.

Abstract: Embodiments include a method and computer program product for implementing multipath selection of ethernet links in a fiber channel over ethernet (FCoE) network. A first VLAN link defines a first path through the ethernet side of the network. A link failure in the first VLAN link is replaced by activating an alternate VLAN link corresponding to an alternate path through the ethernet side of the network while disabling all other VLANS corresponding to other paths through the ethernet side of the network. An advertisement is received from the origination SAN device on the fiber channel side of the network indicating a request for network access by the origination SAN device. Communications are enabled between the origination SAN device and the destination LAN device via the alternate VLAN link. Communications are then resumed between the origination SAN device and the destination LAN device utilizing the alternate VLAN link.

Abstract: Embodiments include a method and computer program product for a multilevel network with inter-layer multipath redundancy between a first network layer of leaf switches and a second network layer of spine switches. Each leaf switch is connected to multiple spine switches to provide multiple inter-layer communication paths between the leaf switches and the spine switches. Each spine switch is assigned a common Layer 2 and 3 network address, while each leaf switch is configured with an inter-layer link selection protocol to selectively connect only one active inter-layer link between the leaf switch and the wide area layer while disabling all other available inter-layer links between the leaf switch and the wide area layer. Alternative inter-layer links is thus activated without requiring the leaf switch to be configured with a new address for the alternate inter-layer link or relying on any multipath functionality implemented within the spine switches.
Abstract translation: 实施例包括一种用于多层网络的方法和计算机程序产品,其中叶片交换机的第一网络层和脊交换机的第二网络层之间具有层间多径冗余。 每个叶片开关连接到多个脊柱开关,以在叶片开关和脊柱开关之间提供多个层间通信路径。 每个脊柱交换机分配一个公共的二层和三层网络地址,而每个叶子交换机配置一个层间链路选择协议,只选择性地连接叶片交换机和广域层之间的一个活动层间链路,同时禁用所有 叶片开关和广域层之间的其他可用的层间链接。 因此可以激活替代的层间链路,而不需要将叶片交换机配置为替代层间链路的新地址或依赖于在脊柱交换机内实现的任何多路径功能。
