    摘要: Reducing cost chargeback in an information technology (IT) computing environment including multiple resources, is provided. One implementation involves a process wherein resource usage and allocation statistics are stored for a multitude of resources and associated cost policies. Then, time-based usage patterns are determined for the resources from the statistics. A correlation of response time with resource usages and outstanding input/output instructions for the resources is determined. Based on usage patterns and the correlation, a multitude of potential cost reduction recommendations are determined. Further, a multitude of integrals are obtained based on the potential cost reduction recommendations, and a statistical integral is obtained based on the statistics. A difference between the statistical integral and each of the multiple integrals is obtained and compared with a threshold to determine potential final cost reduction recommendations. A final cost reduction recommendation is then selected from the potential cost reduction recommendations.

    摘要: Disclosed is an autonomic abnormality detection device having a plurality of agents, a server with a one or more processors, a data storage device and a corrective actions engine. The device is adapted to detect and diagnose abnormalities in system components. Particularly, the device uses agents to track performance/workload measurements of system components and dynamically compiles a history of those performance/workload measurements for each component. In order to detect abnormalities a processor compares current performance/workload measurements for a component to the compiled histories for that component and for other components. The processor can further be adapted to determine possible causes of a detected abnormality and to report the abnormality, including the possible causes, to a corrective actions engine.

    摘要: The embodiments of the invention provide methods, computer program products, etc. for complaint-based service level objectives. More specifically, a method of deducing undefined service level objectives receives complaints regarding behavior of a system. The complaints could include a severity parameter, an entity parameter, a nature-of-complaint parameter, a timestamp parameter, and/or an identification parameter. Next, system details representing a current state of the system are recorded for each of the complaints. The method then automatically analyzes a history of the system details and the complaints to produce a historical compilation of the system details. The analyzing can include weighing each of the system details by a severity parameter value.

    摘要: Embodiments of the present invention provide an approach that utilizes discrete event simulation to quantitatively analyze the reliability of a modeled de-duplication system in a computer storage environment. In addition, the approach described herein can perform such an analysis on systems having heterogeneous data stored on heterogeneous storage systems in the presence of primary faults and their secondary effects due to de-duplication. In a typical embodiment, data de-duplication parameters and a hardware configuration are received in a computer storage medium. A data de-duplication model is then applied to a set of data and to the data de-duplication parameters, and a hardware reliability model is applied to the hardware configuration. Then a set (at least one) of discrete events is simulated based on the data de-duplication model as applied to the set of data and the data de-duplication parameters, and the hardware reliability model as applied to the hardware configuration. Based on the simulation, a set of data reliability and availability estimations/estimates can be generated (e.g., and outputted/provided).

    摘要: A system and associated method for continuously optimizing data archive management scheduling. A job scheduler receives, from an archive management system, inputs of task information, replica placement data, infrastructure topology data, and resource performance data. The job scheduler models a flow network that represents data content, software programs, physical devices, and communication capacity of the archive management system in various levels of vertices according to the received inputs. An optimal path in the modeled flow network is computed as an initial schedule, and the archive management system performs tasks according to the initial schedule. The operations of scheduled tasks are monitored and the job scheduler produces a new schedule based on feedbacks of the monitored operations and predefined heuristics.
