摘要:
A system includes a goal state repository, a goal state repository instance and management tools. The goal state repository stores goals for a managed system. The goal state repository instance stores a subset of the goals applicable to a current state of the managed system. The goal state repository instance is created by comparing the current state of the managed system to the goals stored in the goal state repository. The management tools modify the managed system to be in compliance with the subset of goals stored in the goal state repository instance.

Resources are provisioned in an automated manner for shared services in a resource-on-demand system. A model representing an observed state of resources in the resource-on-demand system allocated to the shared services and a model representing a desired state of the shared services are stored. At least one policy applicable to provisioning the resources for the shared services is determined. The policy and information from the models are applied to automatically provision the resources for satisfying the desired state of the shared services.

An automated provisioning system provisions computing resources for shared services in a resource-on-demand system. A number of virtual machines needed for a virtual machine production pool for a period of time to satisfy the computing demand for the shared services is determined from a policy. Also, a number of unassigned virtual machines needed for a virtual machine buffer pool is determined from the policy. Servers and virtual machines are automatically provisioned for the virtual machine production pool and the virtual machine buffer pool based on the determined number of virtual machines needed for the virtual machine production pool, the determined number of unassigned virtual machines needed for the virtual machine buffer pool, and a changing computing demand of the shared services during the period of time.

Service level objectives for a multi-tier system are translated to low-level system metrics by determining component profiles. The component profiles include performance parameters calculated as a function of applied resources for each of a plurality of components of the multi-tier system. Performance models including service level parameters are also determined. The performance models are determined as a function of the performance parameters and workload characteristics. The service level objectives are translated to the low-level system metrics using the performance models.

Resources in a resource-on-demand system are reserved to support user desktop utility demand. A demand calendar specifies capacities of resources in the resource-on-demand system reserved to support user desktop utility demand for future time periods. A requested capacity is compared to capacities from the demand calendar for a requested future period of time to determine whether resources for the requested capacity are to be reserved.

The management of end-to-end cooperation among multiple e-service providers is enabled in a distributed correlation manner by locally appending a tag to each outgoing document, with each tag uniquely identifying the transaction to which it is related and identifying management information. The tags are management information structures that are updated at each participating e-service provider. Consequently, in a succession of e-service providers, the parent e-service is furnished with management information for each of the participating e-services and is able to discern the contributions of each such e-service. The different providers maintain separate management information libraries which are used in registration and correlation processes.

Method and apparatus for tracing operations of and interactions between components of a composite web service. An identifier code is generated at the initiation of a web service, and the identifier code is propagated in messages transmitted between components of the web service. The identifier code and message-description data are logged in a correlation database when a component receives a message and when a component sends a message.

Quality of Service (QoS) management in a service-based system may be provided by adaptively adjusting system operational parameters in response to real time relationships between QoS specifications and measurements. A QoS manager may include a measurement engine configured to acquire real time data that is specific to transaction instances of various transaction types. The manager also may include a controller for comparing transaction data from the measurement engine to the guaranteed QoS standards. Depending upon the results of the comparison, the controller may invoke control actions.

Systems and methods are disclosed for visualizing business agreement interactions. One method embodiment comprises: displaying one or more parties of a first type as nodes in a first region of a view window; displaying one or more parties of a second type as nodes in a second region of the view window; displaying one or more parties of a third type as nodes in a third region that is at least substantially between the first and second region; and displaying agreements between parties as lines between corresponding nodes. The lines may be displayed with at least one characteristic indicative of when a violation of a represented agreement condition has occurred.
