摘要： An apparatus, system, and method are provided for automatically discovering and grouping files and other resources used by a business process. The present invention includes a monitoring module that collects trace data representative of operational behavior of software applications. An analysis module analyzes the trace data to discover resources affiliated with the business process. A determination module defines a logical application corresponding to the business process and includes the resources discovered by the analysis module. The logical application is automatically defined such that business policies may be readily implemented on the logical application as a whole. Manual identification of resources for a business process is eliminated or substantially reduced.

摘要： Provided are a method, system, and program for managing a network providing Input/Output (I/O) paths between a plurality of host systems and storage volumes in storage systems. An application service connection definition is provided for each connection from a host to a storage volume. At least one service level guarantee definition is provided indicating performance criteria to satisfy service requirements included in at least one service level agreement with at least one customer for network resources. Each service level guarantee definition is associated with at least one application service connection definition. Monitoring is performed as to whether Input/Output (I/O) requests transmitted through the multiple I/O paths satisfy performance criteria indicated in the service level guarantee definition associated with the I/O paths.

摘要： An apparatus, system, and method are provided for associating resources using a behavior based algorithm. The apparatus comprises an initialization module, a query module, and a resource behavior module. The initialization module receives a seed identifier that identifies a seed resource. The seed resource may be a data file, an executable, file, a directory, or another data structure associated with a logical application or business process. The query module accesses trace data and searches the trace data for a candidate resource that might be linked to the seed resource. The trace data describes a plurality of resource events that occur on a computer or network system. The resource behavior module is configured to select a candidate resource based on a common resource event recorded in the trace data. The common resource event is an operation that involves both the seed resource and the candidate resource. Based on the common resource event, the candidate resource may be associated or linked with the seed resource. Together the seed resource and one or more linked resources may form a resource group, which may be associated with a particular logical application or business process.

摘要： An apparatus, system, and method are provided for analyzing the association of a resource to a business process. The invention includes an origination module, an evaluation module, and an identification module. The origination module receives an identifier and derives a seed resource associated with the identifier. The evaluation module applies heuristic routines to trace data and derives a set of candidate resources, and each heuristic routine assigns each candidate resource a probability value. The evaluation module further combines the probabilities for each candidate resource into a combined probability. The identification module identifies a resource associated to a business process by examining the combined probability of a candidate resource with a threshold value. The heuristic routines, thresholds, techniques for combining probabilities and the like are modifiable to accommodate user needs and system changes over time.
