Utility
Method, device, and program product for determining model compression rate
22 Nov 22
A method for determining a model compression rate comprises determining a near-zero importance value subset from an importance value set associated with a machine learning model, a corresponding importance value in the importance value set indicating an importance degree of a corresponding input of a processing layer of the machine learning model, importance values in the near-zero importance value subset being closer to zero than other importance values in the importance value set; determining a target importance value from the near-zero importance value subset, the target importance value corresponding to a turning point of a magnitude of the importance values in the near-zero importance value subset; determining a proportion of importance values less than the target importance value in the importance value set in the importance value set; and determining the compression rate for the machine learning model based on the determined proportion.

Utility
Dynamic cloud native cluster construction using under-utilized machines
22 Nov 22
One example method includes connecting to a server component, transmitting, to the server component, information concerning a hardware configuration associated with an asset having a capability that is fully utilized during a first time period and the capability is idle during a second time period, receiving, from the server component, cluster connection information, and using the cluster connection information to temporarily connect the asset to the cluster as a node of the cluster so that the capability is available during idle time to perform a workload of the cluster.

Utility
Method and system for verifying secret decryption capability of escrow agents
22 Nov 22
A method for verifying a secret decryption of an escrow agent by a client operatively connected to the escrow agent includes initiating enrollment of the client with the escrow agent, wherein the enrollment results the escrow agent generating a key pair comprising a public key and a private key, obtaining the public key from the escrow agent, wherein the private key is not shared with the client, encrypting the secret with the public key to obtain an encrypted secret, after encrypting the secret, encrypting, based on a verification trigger, a verification value using the public key to obtain an encrypted verification value, sending the encrypted verification value to the escrow agent, obtaining a secret decryption response from the escrow agent, making a determination, based on the secret decryption response, that the escrow agent is not capable of decrypting the secret, and based on the determination, performing a remediation action.

Utility
Storage system with passive witness node
15 Nov 22
A method for use in a first storage array, comprising: detecting whether a second storage array has designated the first storage array as a locally-preferred storage array, the detecting being performed when a first link between the second storage array and a witness node is down; setting a value of a first configuration setting to indicate that the first storage array is designated as a system-preferred storage array, the value of the first configuration setting being stored in a memory of the first storage array, the value of the first configuration setting being set only when the second storage array has designated the first storage array as a locally-preferred storage array; detecting, by the first storage array; and when the second link is down, assuming one of an active role or a passive role based, at least in part, on the value of the first configuration setting.

Utility
Method to suggest best SCM configuration based on resource proportionality in a de-duplication based backup storage
15 Nov 22
One example method includes defining a configuration of SCM, receiving a stream of IOs from a client, analyzing the stream of IOs and, based on the analyzing, estimating future IO behavior of the client, and based on estimated future IO behavior of the client, reconfiguring one or more parameters of the configuration of the SCM to define an updated configuration of the SCM, and the updated configuration of the SCM enables an improvement in IO performance relative to an IO performance of the configuration of the SCM.

Utility
System and method for prioritizing backup generation
15 Nov 22
A production host includes storage for storing backup priorities of entities and backup windows during which a system, of which the production host is a member, is predicted to have sufficient computing resources to generate a backup for an entity of the entities and a backup manager that identifies a backup generation event for the entity; in response to identifying the backup generation event: identifying an earliest potential backup window of the backup windows; making a determination that the earliest potential backup window of the backup windows is reserved for a second entity of the entities; in response to making the determination: identifying that a backup priority of the backup priorities that is associated with the entity is greater than a second backup priority of the backup priorities that is associated with the second entity; and providing the backup services to the entity during the earliest potential backup window.
