摘要:
A method for converting a disk of a physical computer into a virtual disk for use by a virtual machine is described. Contents of the disk of the physical computer are copied into an image file, wherein the image file has a different sector-by-sector organization of the contents than the disk but a logically equivalent file system organization. Hardware configuration information from the image file is then extracted, wherein the hardware configuration information relates to hardware of the physical computer and, based on a comparison of the extracted hardware configuration information and a virtual hardware configuration of the virtual machine, hardware-dependent files in the image file are replaced with substitute files that are compatible with the virtual hardware configuration of the virtual machine.

A cluster of nodes in a distributed file system may include; at least two namenodes, each coupled to a plurality of data nodes and each configured to store a state of a namespace of the cluster and each being configured to respond to a request from a client while other(s) of the namenodes are responding to other requests from other clients; and a coordination engine coupled to each of the namenodes. The coordination engine may be configured to receive proposals from the namenodes to change the state of the namespace by replicating, deleting and/or adding data blocks stored in the data nodes and to generate, in response, an ordered set of agreements that specifies an order in which the namenodes are to change the state of the namespace. The namenodes are configured to delay making changes thereto until after the ordered set of agreements is received from the coordination engine.

A system for determining a time that a file was created and associating an ID with the file based on the file creation time is disclosed. The system adjusts the creation time by a time zone offset. In the case of image files, the file creation time may be based on information associated with the image: (1) by the camera that took the picture (exchangeable image file data); (2) when the photo was last modified in memory (file modification time data); (3) based on the raw date and time the photo file was created (file date-time data); and (4) when the photo was imported onto a client device. The system may rename the file with this adjusted creation time to create a standardized name. As a result, the standardized name provides a filename nomenclature that is based on the actual or estimated time of when the file was created.

A method of performing auto-naming of content includes: receiving an auto-naming command for the content; performing auto-naming of the content by using different parameters according to different content types to obtain at least one auto-naming result for the content; and displaying the auto-naming result.

A method and system concatenate multiple media files into a single, continuous media file. The method includes receiving a group of media files and metadata about the group over a network connection. The method also includes in response to receiving the group of media files, determining an order of the media files in the group based at least partially on the metadata. The method includes concatenating the group of media files into a concatenated file based on the determined order. The concatenated file may be transferred to a client device over a network connection. The concatenated file may be transcoded into a file format determined based on the user device before transferring the concatenated file to the user device. The order of the media files in the group may be determined based on a timecode for each of the media files, which is included within the metadata.

In response to detecting a file upload request of a file to storage within a file repository, at least one filename metadata token is identified that includes a subset of characters of a filename of the file and that is mapped in association with the file repository using the subset of characters to at least one repository upload processing action of the file repository. Each mapped repository upload processing action, identified using the subset of characters of each of the at least one filename metadata token, is executed in association with the file upload request of the file to the storage within the file repository.
摘要:
In response to detecting a file upload request of a file to a file repository, at least one filename metadata token that includes a subset of characters of a filename of the file is inferred using text analysis techniques. At least one inferred filename metadata token is extracted from the characters of the filename of the file, and is mapped to at least one repository upload processing action. The at least one repository upload processing action is executed in association with the file upload request of the file to the file repository.
摘要:
A technique for managing access to files by different data storage systems includes a data storage system generating an E-FSID (export FSID) for a file system in addition to a conventional FSID and providing the E-FSID in file handles that the data storage system generates for providing clients with access to the file system. The E-FSID is shared between/among different data storage systems, with each data storage system including data for cross-referencing the E-FSID to a respective local FSID for the file system. Because the E-FSID for a file is the same across different data storage systems, file handles continue to work after failover, migration, and other transitions.

The method and an apparatus provides a virtualized file system enabling indirect access to a second file system in a data storage system comprising a plurality of client computers 100 and a second file system managing unit 410 for managing the second file system and enabling client access to the second file system, the method comprising interconnecting a first file system managing unit 310 between the plurality of client computers 100 and the second file system managing unit 410, creating a directory /root in a first file system managed by the first file system managing unit 310, a directory /root of the second file system with the directory /root of the first file system, enabling on-demand virtualization of the second file system by the first file system managing unit 310 based on client requests received from the client computers 100 at the first file system managing unit 310.
