摘要:
A configuration item management method includes receiving, from a logical-physical configuration database that manages a correspondence relationship between a logical configuration item database that manages a configuration item including an operation policy of an operation target device for each user and a physical configuration item database that is a physical implementation of the logical configuration item database, an input of a relevant operation policy of a user who changes the operation policy, generating a change policy by which the operation policy of the user received at the receiving is changed, and evaluating an influence that is given to an operation policy of another user by the change policy of the user generated at the generating, to determine whether to execute the change policy and to output the influence to the operation policy of the other user.

摘要:
An apparatus generates configuration group information by classifying, based on first log information storing messages outputted by a first plurality of configuration items of a first system, into first configuration groups each including one or more configuration items that have outputted messages having a commonality. The apparatus generates relation class information that defines, in association with the first configuration groups, first one or more message propagation relations. The apparatus classifies a second plurality of configuration items of a second system into second configuration groups included in the first configuration groups, based on the configuration group information and second log information storing messages outputted by the second plurality of configuration items, and applies second one or more message propagation relations that are associated, by the relation class information, with third configuration groups included in the second configuration groups, to the second plurality of configuration items.

A snapshot management method includes detecting a change in a configuration of a virtual machine; recording, in a storage unit, a snapshot of a file system of the virtual machine when the change in the configuration is detected; and determining a stable operation of the virtual machine by monitoring an operation status of the virtual machine and deleting, from the storage unit, the last recorded snapshot for the virtual machine when the operation status satisfies a predetermined condition.

A management system for managing a plurality of computers and a plurality of pieces of software in a computer center includes: a selection data storage part for storing data regarding allocation destination selection, the data including at least either one of operation data and temperature data, wherein the operation data represent states of execution of the pieces of software by the computers, respectively, and temperature data represent temperature distribution in the computers; an instruction generation part for extracting an overheated computer that is assumed to emit more heat as compared with the other computers, and a less-heated computer that is assumed to emit less heat as compared with the other computers, by using the data regarding allocation destination selection, and generating an instruction for relocating at least a part of a piece of software allocated to the overheated computer to the less-heated computer; and an instruction part for outputting the instruction. This makes it possible to save energy for cooling the computers.
摘要:
An unexpected demand detection system for detecting an unexpected demand for IT resources includes: a demand model recording part that records a demand model representing a time-based transition in a predetermined time period of a required amount of the IT resources; an unexpected demand model recording part that records an unexpected demand model representing a time-based transition different from the time-based transition of the amount of the IT resources represented by the demand model; and a judging part that performs a comparison among observation data indicating an actual demand for the IT resources observed in the predetermined time period, the amount of the IT resources represented by the demand model, and an amount of the IT resources represented by the unexpected demand model thereby to judge whether an unexpected demand represented by the unexpected demand model occurs.

An IT resource evaluation system connected to a management system for managing a plurality of IT resources working in a plurality of business systems, include a recording part for recording supply-and-demand data representing a transition of a demand or a supply of an IT resource in an entire business system, an accumulating part for accumulating actual dealing data containing a supply price, an IT resource data input part for inputting IT resource data regarding an IT resource to be evaluated, and an evaluating part for calculating value data representing a supply price in the case where an IT resource is supplied, based on supply-and-demand data, actual dealing data, and the IT resource data.
摘要:
A management policy evaluation system for evaluating a management policy includes: a demand recording part for recording demand data representing a change in a value of a demand in a predetermined period; a supply recording part for recording supply data representing a change in a value of a supply in the predetermined period; a calculation part for comparing the demand data with the supply data, so as to calculate shortage/surplus data representing a change in shortage/surplus of an IT resource with respect to the demand in the predetermined period; and an evaluation part for generating evaluation data representing a loss or a profit to be created when the IT resource is assigned based on the management policy.
