Abstract: Method, apparatus and computer program product are configured to perform computer monitoring activities; to collect information regarding computer system status during the computer monitoring activities; to detect a problem in dependence on the information collected during the computer monitoring activities; and to determine whether to launch a diagnostic probe when the problem is detected. The monitoring activities may be performed on a periodic or event-driven basis. The determination whether to launch a diagnostic probe is based on a rule included in a hierarchy of rules. The hierarchy of rules is based on problem tickets; system logs; and computer system configuration information.

Abstract: A system and method for scalable status change detection in a network of nodes includes embedding node coordinate positions into a virtual map environment. A cluster of nodes are represented with a representative node to form a hierarchy of nodes and clusters where changes in a status of the representative node imply a status change in the nodes of the cluster. By selectively monitoring the representative nodes for the changes in status, the representative nodes create a capability for scalable monitoring of the network.

Abstract: In one embodiment, the present invention is a method and an apparatus for failure-resilient forwarding of data over a computer network. In one embodiment, a marker is introduced into the data stream, e.g., at the sending node, and allows, in turn, forwarding nodes and/or receivers to efficiently track data stream reception. The marker functions as a checkpoint for the data transport process, and is identified and indexed at each forwarding node and receiver. Each receiver saves the marker prior to delivering data to an application, thereby designating a point in the data stream at which all preceding data is confirmed to have been delivered to the application. Thus, if a forwarding node fails, the receiver may request stream data from an alternate forwarding node by specifying to the alternate forwarding node to provide data starting from the marker.

Abstract translation: 在一个实施例中，本发明是用于在计算机网络上进行数据故障恢复转发的方法和装置。 在一个实施例中，将标记引入数据流，例如在发送节点处，并且允许转发节点和/或接收器以有效地跟踪数据流接收。 标记用作数据传输过程的检查点，并在每个转发节点和接收器处被识别和索引。 每个接收器在将数据传送到应用程序之前保存标记，从而指定数据流中的所有先前数据被确认已被递送到应用的点。 因此，如果转发节点发生故障，则接收方可以通过指定备用转发节点从标记开始提供数据来从备用转发节点请求流数据。

Abstract: One embodiment of the present method and apparatus for re-establishing anonymous data transfers between a first endpoint and a second endpoint in a network includes receiving, from a first node, the identity of a second node connected to the first node, where at least the first node is a neighbor node. A third node (a neighbor node) is then selected, and instructed to connect to the second node in order to establish a link for the path. In this manner, the first endpoint and the second endpoint remain unknown at least to each other (e.g., where “unknown” means that neither endpoint knows any identifying information, such as network address, about the other endpoint), and likely to all other nodes in the path as well. In another embodiment, a failure is detected at a neighbor node, where the neighbor node is part of an original path between the first endpoint and the second endpoint. The neighbor node's repair server is contacted for a repair node associated with the neighbor node, and a connection to the repair node is made such that the path is established in a manner that maintains anonymity of the first endpoint and the second endpoint relative to each other.

Abstract: One embodiment of the present method and apparatus for anonymous data transfers comprises connecting first and second network endpoints to at least one relay node and transferring data from the first endpoint to the second endpoint through the at least one relay node such that the first and second endpoints are not aware of each other's identities, e.g., are not aware of an ultimate source or destination of transferred data. In further embodiments, an information field specifying a number of times that a data transfer message (e.g., a request, response or get message) should be forwarded is altered so that no receiving node can inferentially identify an originating node.
