Filed:

Feb 4, 2011
Appl. No.:

13/021084

Assignee:

Cisco Technology, Inc. - San Jose CA
International Classification:

H04L 12/26
H04L 12/56
G06F 15/173
US Classification:

3702301, 370237, 370389, 37039532, 370412, 709241
Abstract:

In one embodiment, packet flows are distributed among groups, such as, but not limited to, queues or links. For example in the context of a bundled interface in which multiple links appear as a single logical interface on each of the sender and receiver, packet flows are distributed among these multiple links by the sender. When one or more links become unavailable, packet flows of the affected links are reassigned to other active links, while packet flows assigned to the unaffected links remain associated with the same link in contrast to prior systems which do not attempt to preserve prior associations between packet flows and links. By maintaining these associations, the receiver of the packets does not need to adjust to the different arrival links of packet flows.

Assignee:

Nutanix, Inc. - San Jose CA
International Classification:

G06F 3/06
G06F 9/455
Abstract:

An illustrative embodiment disclosed herein is an apparatus including a processor having programmed instructions to determine a frequency rate for tracking changed data of a virtual machine (VM), track the changed data at the determined frequency rate, receive a request to generate a recovery point associated with a specified time, and, responsive to receiving the request to generate the recovery point associated with the specified time, generate the recovery point.
