摘要： A system and a process for maintaining a plurality of remote security applications using a centralized broker in a distributed computing environment are described. A centralized broker is executed on a designated system within the distributed computing environment. A console interface from the centralized broker is exposed. The console interface implements a plurality of browser methods which each define a browser function which can be invoked by a plurality of snap-in components. A namespace snap-in component is defined and includes a logical grouping identifying at least one remote security application being executed on a remote system within the distributed computing environment. A namespace interface from the namespace snap-in component is exposed. The namespace interface implements a plurality of namespace methods each defining a storage function which can be invoked by the centralized broker. A repository including a plurality of storages corresponding to each remote system is formed. Each storage includes a set of attributes describing each such remote security application defined within the namespace snap-in component.

摘要翻译： 描述了在分布式计算环境中使用集中式代理维护多个远程安全应用的系统和过程。 在分布式计算环境中的指定系统上执行中央代理。 来自集中式代理的控制台界面暴露出来。 控制台界面实现多个浏览器方法，每个浏览器方法定义可由多个管理单元调用的浏览器功能。 定义了命名空间管理单元组件，并且包括标识在分布式计算环境中的远程系统上正在执行的至少一个远程安全应用程序的逻辑分组。 来自命名空间管理单元组件的命名空间接口被公开。 命名空间接口实现多个命名空间方法，每个方法定义可由集中式代理调用的存储功能。 形成包括对应于每个远程系统的多个存储器的存储库。 每个存储包括描述在命名空间管理单元组件中定义的每个这样的远程安全应用程序的一组属性。
