摘要:
The disparate data and commands from are received from a managed resource (102) and have potentially different semantics. The disparate data and commands are processed according to rules received from an autonomic manager (112) to produce a single normalized view of this information. The actual state of the managed resource is determined from the normalized view of disparate data. The actual state of the managed resource (102) is compared to a desired state of the managed resource (102). When a match does not exist between the actual state and the desired state, a configuration adjustment to the managed resource (102) and/or another resource is determined to allow the actual state to be the same as the desired state. Then, the configuration adjustment is applied to the managed resource (102). When a match exists between the actual state and the desired state, maintenance functions associated with the managed resource (102) are performed.
摘要:
An autonomic computational processor can be provided with both at least one substantially closed loop problem solving mechanism (such as, but not necessarily limited to, an abductive algorithm-based problem solving mechanism (101)) and at least one substantially open loop problem solving mechanism (such as, but not necessarily limited to, a machine learning algorithm-based problem solving mechanism (102)). Upon receiving (103) information regarding a problem as relates to a given corresponding process, then, these teachings can provide for automatically determining (104) which of the closed loop and open loop problem solving mechanisms to use to attempt to resolve the problem.
摘要:
A system [100] is provided that includes a Model-Based Translation Layer [200] to accept an input event being formed in any of a pre-determined set of languages and protocols, and output an output message having a common language and protocol. The system [100] also includes a State Processing Layer [300] to (a) parse the output message to determine an event, an externally perceived state of the event, and an internally perceived state of the event; (b) determine a type of the event; (c) determine whether the externally perceived state of the event is substantially equivalent to the internally perceived state of the event; and (d) invoke policy control to lookup action functions to address the event in response to determining that a combination of the type of the event and the externally perceived state of the event is determined to be valid.

摘要:
A system includes vendor specific converters [210, 215, 220, 225] to gather vendor-specific data from sensors [235, 240] and convert to normalized data. The vendor-specific data comprises at least a first input and a second input. The first input corresponds to a first language and the second input corresponds to a second language, where the first language is different from the second language. The vendor specific converters [210, 215, 220, 225] receive normalized commands and issue vendor-specific commands to a managed resource [165]. A converter module [230] receives the normalized data and converts to an output corresponding to a common language. The converter module [230] also receives and outputs normalized commands corresponding to the common language. Semantic processing logic [255] receives the normalized data and matches the normalized data against a predetermined set of knowledge bases and generates a new object to send to an autonomic manager [160].
摘要:
A system, method, and information processing system for managing a configuration of a network device. A current state associated with at least one network device (104) is determined (206). A set of commands (118) available for the current state of the network device (104) is retrieved (208). A next state associated with a current command is determined (216) for each command in the set of commands (118). A transition from the current state to the next state is created (218, 222) in response to determining a next state associated with a current command. A transition is determined to have been created for each command in the set of commands (118). An extended finite state machine (120) is created that includes at least the current state, the next state, and the transition for each of the commands in the set of commands (118).
摘要:
A method and computer program product for detecting a policy conflict in a managed system includes examining a plurality of policy rules for overlapping policy targets, in response to finding no overlapping policy targets, reporting that the policy rules do not conflict, and in response to finding overlapping policy targets, examining the plurality of policy rules for at least two rules having a same condition and a same event, and, in response to not finding at least two rules having a same condition and a same event, reporting that the policy rules do not conflict.
摘要:
A system, method, and information processing system manage a network. At least one contract including one or more components is received at a network that uses a component based architecture. A first operation (422) in the set of operations associated with the contract (114) is mapped to a policy rule event (424) associated with at least one policy rule (116). A second operation (426) in the set of operations associated with the contract (114) is mapped to at least one policy rule condition (428) associated with the policy rule (116). A third operation (430) in the set of operations associated with the contract (116) is mapped to a policy rule action (432) associated with the policy rule (116). A fourth operation (440) in the set of operations associated with the contract (116) is mapped to a policy rule condition (442) associated with the other policy rule (420).
摘要:
A method and information processing system manage policy elements in an information processing system. At least one policy element (110) from a plurality of policy elements stored in at least one policy repository (108) is retrieved. The plurality of policy elements includes at least one of a plurality of reusable policy rules (110), a plurality of reusable policy rule components (118, 120, 122), a plurality of reusable policy rule templates, and a plurality of and policy rule component templates. A new reusable policy element is created from at least one of the policy element (110) that has been retrieved and a default policy element. The new reusable policy element is stored in the at least one policy repository (108). A reusable policy element is queried using metadata (224) associated with the reusable policy element.
摘要:
While facilitating (101) a call session for a participating entity having at least one federation-based benefit, one then uses (102) that at least one federation-based benefit to facilitate communications mobility for the participating entity during the call session. Such a call session can comprise, for example and at least in part, a wireless call session. The federation-based benefit itself can be one provided by a content provider, a services provider, or the like.
