APPROACH TO SEAMLESSLY PROVISION IOMS NPAR CONFIGURATIONS FOR ONE OR MORE ASSOCIATED SLED(S) DURING COMPONENT OR SUBSYSTEM FAILURE FOR Mx7k CHASSIS IN DATACENTER - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240129180 titled 'APPROACH TO SEAMLESSLY PROVISION IOMS NPAR CONFIGURATIONS FOR ONE OR MORE ASSOCIATED SLED(S) DURING COMPONENT OR SUBSYSTEM FAILURE FOR Mx7k CHASSIS IN DATACENTER
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes a system for component failure management in a hardware rack processing network data traffic.
- Hardware components process network data traffic and generate hardware event data.
- An event manager monitors network traffic and hardware event data to determine hardware failures.
- A network optimization module determines if a network partition update is needed in response to hardware failures.
Potential Applications
The technology could be applied in data centers, telecommunications networks, and cloud computing environments to improve network reliability and performance.
Problems Solved
1. Efficient management of hardware failures in network systems. 2. Optimization of network partitions in response to hardware failures.
Benefits
1. Enhanced network reliability and uptime. 2. Improved network performance. 3. Cost-effective hardware failure management.
Potential Commercial Applications
Optimized network infrastructure solutions for data centers and telecommunications companies.
Possible Prior Art
One possible prior art could be fault-tolerant systems in network management that address hardware failures but may not specifically focus on network partition updates in response to such failures.
Unanswered Questions
How does the system handle simultaneous hardware failures in different components of the hardware rack?
The patent application does not provide details on how the system manages multiple hardware failures occurring simultaneously.
What is the scalability of the system in terms of handling increasing network data traffic and hardware event data?
The patent application does not address the scalability of the system as network traffic and hardware event data volume grow.
Original Abstract Submitted
a system for component failure management, comprising a plurality of hardware components disposed in a hardware rack and configured to process network data traffic and to generate hardware event data, an event manager coupled to the plurality of hardware components and configured to monitor the network traffic and hardware event data and to determine whether a hardware failure has occurred and a network optimization module coupled to the event manager and configured to determine whether a network partition update is required in response to the determination that a hardware failure has occurred.
