A system and method for improved communication notification forwarding on a network. An instant messaging (IM) server program receives at least one communication notification from a first client among a collection of clients on a network, wherein the at least one communication notification is targeted to a second client among the collection of clients. A notification manager compares a current network performance level to a predetermined threshold. In response to said comparing the current network performance level to the predetermined threshold, the notification manager parses a first list to determine if a first user indicator associated with said first client is present on the first list, wherein the first list indicates a first collection of user indicators of clients from which communication notifications are to be forwarded as high priority communication notifications. If the user indicator associated with the first client is present on the first list, the IM server program forwards the at least one communication notification as a high priority communication notification to said second client.

A system, method, and program product is provided that operates during an instant messaging session conducted between a first participant and a second participant. During the session, message sent to or from each participant are displayed in a first instant messaging session window. The two sets of instant messaging messages are displayed in a time-based order in the first instant messaging session window. A notification is received corresponding to one of the displayed instant messaging messages that is displayed in the first instant messaging session window. In response to receiving the notification, the selected instant messaging message is displayed in a second instant messaging session window while still including the selected instant messaging message in the first instant messaging session window.

Under the present invention, the performance of a set of system resources is monitored in response to incoming request traffic. When a system resource is approaching an overload condition, a corrective action is identified and implemented. Overload thresholds for each system resource and appropriate corrective actions are contained within a management policy. Based on a performance history of the corrective actions, the management policy can be changed/revised.

Techniques are disclosed for managing instant messages, including the display of windows for incoming messages, as well as for managing status information for instant messaging users. In one aspect, an instant messaging user defines policy information to programmatically determine a response to an arriving instant message. As an example, the policy may control whether a new window will pop up for a newly-arriving message, and may specify other attributes of the window if desired. In another aspect, an instant messaging user defines attributes pertaining to how his instant messaging status will be presented to others.
摘要:
A method for controlling the behavior of a telephone using policies, the method comprising a Policy Creation Program (PCP) and a Behavior Control Program (BCP). The policies comprise telephone behavior instructions and three criteria conditions: location criteria, context criteria, and caller criteria. Each policy is also assigned a policy priority number based on the importance of the policy, which is used to resolve conflicts between the policies. The PCP allows the user to create the policies and stores the policies in a policy table based on the policy priority numbers. The BCP detects an incoming telephone call and determines the location, context, and caller conditions. The BCP compares the location, context, and caller conditions to a plurality of the policies and determines the policy that matches the conditions. The BCP then controls the telephone's behavior according to the telephone behavior instructions in the policy.

Components in a plurality of administrative domains that are communicatively coupled by a network are automatically managed. Permission to implement a corrective action in a second administrative domain is obtained by a management program in a first administrative domain that does not have existing permission to act in the second administrative domain. Responsive to obtaining the permission, the corrective action is implemented in the second administrative domain under control of the management program in the first administrative domain.

A flexible data mirroring system and method are adapted for use in a data processing system having first and second data storage devices. Upon receiving notification of a file update to be written to the first data storage device a mirror mode and mirror event associated with the updated file are determined from mirror information that has been provisioned on a per-file, per-directory or per-volume, etc. basis. The file update is mirrored to the second data storage device according to the provisioned mirror mode and mirror event. If the mirror mode is continuous, the mirror operation proceeds immediately. If the mirror mode is discrete, the file update is noted and the mirror operation proceeds following occurrence of the file's mirror event.

Problems are resolved in an application program that runs on an Information Technology (IT) infrastructure that includes IT components. A symptom is generated that identifies a problem in the application program. Selected IT components in the IT infrastructure that may cause the problem in the application program are identified, based on the symptom. Status of the selected IT components is obtained by obtaining a respective situation for a respective IT component. The respective situation is one of a set of component-independent predefined situation categories that is associated with a respective selected IT component. The respective situations provide the status of the selected IT components in a common situation format that includes the associated one of the component-independent predefined situation categories. The respective situations that are obtained are analyzed to identify at least one problem in the selected IT components that may cause the problem in the application program.
摘要:
Methods, systems, computer program products, and methods of doing business for improving communication, whereby message content is routed efficiently while allowing different recipients to receive different versions of the content. A portion of the electronic conversation in an instant messaging session (or of messages in other messaging systems) can be identified as being relevant to a third party (or parties), and information can be specified for routing the relevant information to that third party. A variety of delivery mechanisms may be used. Approval may be obtained prior to routing an annotated message. The recipients of annotated message may be human users and/or automated processes. The message author may also be a human or an automated process.
