摘要： In one aspect of the present description, a data preservation function is provided for preserving a set of data on a source storage device at a point in time, and includes identifying as a function of prior update usage, such as input/output usage, of the data to be preserved, a portion of the data which is more likely to be the subject of updates during at least a portion of the data preservation operation as compared to the remaining portion of the data to be preserved, and copies the identified portion of the data to be preserved to a target storage device. In another aspect, the size of the portion of data to be identified is variable. In one embodiment, the size of the portion of data to be identified is a function of a parameter of the command, such that a user can specify the command parameter which affects the size of the portion of data which is prewritten to the target storage device. The parameter may be, for example, a percentage of the data to be preserved, such that a user can specify the percentage of the point-in-time data which is prewritten to the target storage device. Alternatively, the parameter may be, for example, a probability of a collision occurring, such that a user can specify a probability of a collision occurring. Other features and aspects may be realized, depending upon the particular application.
摘要翻译：在本说明书的一个方面，提供一种数据保存功能，用于在时间点上保存源存储设备上的一组数据，并且包括根据先前的更新使用（诸如输入/输出使用）的功能来识别待保存的数据，与保留的数据的剩余部分相比，在数据保存操作的至少一部分期间更有可能成为更新对象的数据的一部分，并将所识别的部分要保存到目标存储设备的数据。另一方面，要识别的数据部分的大小是可变的。在一个实施例中，要识别的数据部分的大小是命令的参数的函数，使得用户可以指定影响被预写到目标存储设备的数据部分的大小的命令参数。该参数可以是例如要保留的数据的百分比，使得用户可以指定被预写到目标存储设备的时间点数据的百分比。或者，参数可以是例如冲突发生的概率，使得用户可以指定碰撞发生的概率。可以根据具体应用实现其它特征和方面。

摘要： A method for dynamic consistency group formation, in one embodiment, includes creating a snapshot of first data stored on a source storage system with respect to data content and data structure, copying the snapshot to a target storage system, detecting one or more write operations affecting data on the source storage system while copying the first data, detecting one or more collisions affecting the first data on the source storage system, wherein a collision occurs whenever the write operations affect the first data prior to the first data being written, setting a consistency group interval which represents an interval duration between successive snapshot create-and-copy events, and altering the consistency group interval to minimize collisions affecting data on at least one of the storage systems. Other methods for dynamic consistency group formation are also described.
摘要翻译：在一个实施例中，用于动态一致性组形成的方法包括：针对数据内容和数据结构创建存储在源存储系统上的第一数据的快照，将快照复制到目标存储系统，检测影响到的一个或多个写操作源数据存储系统上的数据，同时复制第一数据，检测影响源存储系统上的第一数据的一个或多个冲突，其中每当写入操作影响第一数据被写入之前的第一数据时，发生冲突，组间隔，其表示连续快照创建和复制事件之间的间隔持续时间，以及改变一致性组间隔，以最小化影响至少一个存储系统上的数据的冲突。还描述了用于动态一致性组形成的其他方法。

摘要： A gaming system includes at least one memory device storing instructions that, when executed by at least one processor, cause the gaming system to receive wagers in response to inputs via at least one input device, and increment one or more first progressive jackpots by respective individual increment amounts totaling a total increment amount. One or more second progressive jackpots are incremented by respective individual increment amounts totaling the total increment amount, the total increment amount being based on the received wagers. In response to a triggering event awarding at least one of the first progressive jackpots, the awarded first progressive jackpot is reset to its reset value and the individual increment amount for the awarded first progressive jackpot is deducted from at least one of the second progressive jackpots.

摘要： Method and system are disclosed for operating a wagering game terminal where players are allowed to transfer game assets that they may have accumulated to other players. The game assets may be transferred as part of an on-line auction won by one of the other players, as a gift to a preselected player, or as part of a trade with a preselected player. Neither the transferring player nor the receiving player is required to be present at a wagering game terminal at the time of the transfer. The transfer may be an anonymous transfer or it may be an identity-based transfer. For identity-based transfers, a predefined list of selected players may be used to facilitate the transfers.
