Filed:

Jun 11, 2003

Appl. No.:

10/459870

Inventors:

Jared Ricks Blaser - Orem UT, US
Randall Richards Cook - Springville UT, US

Assignee:

FSL, L.L.C. - Lindon UT

International Classification:

G06F 9/44
G06F 9/445

US Classification:

719328, 717174

Abstract:

The inventions relate generally to computer systems having facilities for providing virtual portions of file systems and configuration settings to applications. More particularly, the inventions relate to computer systems that provide a layer organization for files and configuration settings that can be overlaid on top of an operating system, and can later delete the layer organization to restore the computer systems to a clean state. Detailed information on various example embodiments of the inventions are provided in the Detailed Description below, and the inventions are defined by the appended claims.

US Patent:

7461086, Dec 2, 2008

Filed:

Jan 3, 2006

Appl. No.:

11/324573

Inventors:

Jeremy Hurren - Pleasant Grove UT, US
Jared Blaser - Orem UT, US
Randall Cook - Springville UT, US

Assignee:

Symantec Corporation - Cupertino CA

International Classification:

G06F 17/00

US Classification:

707102, 707100, 707101, 707 9

Abstract:

The inventions relate generally to layered computing systems that provide public access to the content of the layers. Also disclosed herein are prioritization schemes usable in a layered computing system, including prioritization by layer type, by assigned priority weights, by access type, by sub-layers and by read-write indicators. Processes may further be associated to layers from which they originate, and priority given to associated layers thereby. Association may also be provided for installer services, thereby depositing an applications updates into its layer. Layers may also contain file reference information including exclusion or inclusion entries indicating what files may be written thereto. Paths recorded in layers may also embed variables to true paths on a layered system. Detailed information on various example embodiments of the inventions are provided in the Detailed Description below, and the inventions are defined by the appended claims.
