An information collection device acquires information from a plurality of devices connected through a network. The information collection device includes: a first addition unit that adds, for each of the devices, an information collection duration required to collect information of the devices to a communication duration required to communicate with the devices; a second addition unit that adds a maximum duration among the durations by addition of the first addition unit to a predetermined time to obtain a first time; a subtraction unit that subtracts the information collection duration of each of the devices from the first time; a first setting unit that sets a time obtained by the subtraction unit as a second time that is when information collection starts at each of the devices; and an acquisition unit that acquires information obtained by the information collection that starts at the second time.

An information management device for performing an information update process from a virtual integrated management device that manages a plurality of device configuration information management devices to the device configuration information management devices, comprises a meta information management unit and an update processing unit. The meta information management unit, which is used to store meta information, indicates from which device configuration information management devices managed information comes. The update processing unit is used to narrow down the device configuration information management devices having information. The information is the basis of information on an update process such as registration, update and deletion based on the meta information, and giving a request for the update process, such as registration, update and deletion only to the device configuration information management devices narrowed down.

A computer-readable portable storage medium storing a trouble handling program for causing a computer to execute a process for knowledgizing past trouble handling cases in information systems, and for recommending handling methods based on trouble handling knowledge obtained by knowledgizing and symptoms of troubles when they occur, including a searching process for obtaining candidates of handling methods for troubles requested to be handled by searching the trouble handling knowledge; a recording process for recording to a storing unit a history of handling methods executed for each symptom as handling history information; a priority assigning process for assigning priorities to the handling method candidates obtained by the searching process, with reference to the handling history information; and a process for returning to a handling request source the handling methods for the troubles requested to be handled after assigning priorities based on priority assignment information obtained by the priority assigning process.
摘要:
An information processing apparatus for managing attribute information as to resources constituting a system includes an acquisition unit which obtains a plurality of attribute information as to the same resources, a degree of reliability calculation unit which calculates, when a contradiction exists between the plurality of attribute information obtained by the acquisition unit, a degree of reliability as to each of the plurality of attribute information, and an attribute information determination unit which sets the attribute information, which has the highest degree of reliability calculated by the degree of reliability calculation unit, as attribute information as to the resources.
摘要:
A configuration management system includes a plurality of MDRs that stores information about resources as configuration items, a FCMDB, a plurality of proxy apparatuses, and a proxy management apparatus, wherein the proxy management apparatus receives configuration items from the MDRs, reconciles the receives configuration items, selects a destination proxy apparatus such that the numbers of configuration items stored in the proxy apparatuses are substantially equal to each other, and sends the reconciled configuration items to the selected proxy apparatus, wherein the proxy apparatuses store configuration items sent from the proxy management apparatus, and wherein the FCMDB receives a query from a client, selects among the plurality of proxy apparatuses a proxy apparatus that stores a configuration item that is to serve as a query result, and receives the configuration item from the selected proxy apparatus.
摘要:
A federated configuration management database includes a plurality of management data repositories, and a backup destination determination unit that determines backup destination management data repositories for backing up data overlapping among the plurality of management data repositories at specific management data repositories and that notifies each of the management data repositories of the data to be backed up.
摘要:
A trouble coping apparatus includes an incident registration section which registers information about an incident which has solved a problem, a solution knowledge generation section which generates trouble solution knowledge from the incident information, a risk registration section which registers risk items which are materials for judging appropriateness of selection of a work candidate, with the trouble solution knowledge, a risk evaluation section which generates navigation information showing a trouble solution procedure from the trouble solution knowledge, and a solution procedure display section which displays the navigation information.
摘要:
A recording medium stores a program which causes a computer to execute a process for responding to failure of a management subject apparatus, based on incident information. The program causes the computer to execute a management procedure. The procedure manages steps of the response to the failure with the incident information. A response knowledge acquisition procedure referring to failure response information in which is described response knowledge corresponding to each step of the response to the failure, and acquires response knowledge for the failure in accordance with the step of the response to the failure managed by the failure response step management procedure with the incident information. A response knowledge process execution procedure executes a process in accordance with the response knowledge for the failure acquired by the response knowledge acquisition procedure.
摘要:
When a problem occurs in a computer system, the following processing is performed. That is, a troubleshooting procedure that includes, at least, operation content and input request for system information, presented to an operator, and in which command to acquire system information related to the input request from the information source of the system information are assigned to the input request, is referenced. Furthermore, in accordance with the command, system information is collected from an information source where system information exists. Then, after those input request for system information have been removed from the troubleshooting procedure, the resultant troubleshooting procedure is presented to the operator. Thus, the workload of the operator in the troubleshooting operation can be significantly reduced, and the time until the operation is completed is shortened, making rapid troubleshooting possible.
