摘要:
Improved problem diagnosis techniques for use in accordance with computing systems, e.g., distributed computing systems, are disclosed. In one aspect of the invention, a technique for diagnosing a problem associated with a computing system comprises the following steps/operations. One or more probes are executed in accordance with at least a portion of a previously selected probe schedule. When a result of one or more of the probes of the previously selected probe schedule indicates, at least, a potential problem associated with the computing system, one or more probes which optimize at least one criterion are selected in real-time. The one or more selected probes are executed so as to diagnose the potential problem.

摘要:
The deployment of probing technology for the purpose of problem determination in a server or network element is disclosed. One can actively select which probes to send in order to be able to diagnose problems which one is particularly interested in, allowing for greater flexibility and efficiency. The extra load imposed on a network by the use of probes is small, especially if the algorithms described in this disclosure are used.
摘要:
Xml pages are obtained from knowledge bases that contain step by step instructions. The xml pages are presented as “active content,” by which we mean a series of prompted questions and answers. A user's interactions with the active content is recorded so that the results may be copied to the user's clipboard for automatic transfer to a problem management/ticketing system. Active content that contains embedded questions asked of the user may be used to infer answers to some of the questions from a search query, and, thus, alleviate the need for the user to answer them.
摘要:
A graphical user interface for allowing an end-user to navigate and edit a hierarchy of objects and relationships is disclosed. The user can add or remove patent and children data objects to or from the view by clicking on a given node, allowing the hierarchy to be examined to any desired level of detail. The user can drag-and-drop nodes from a palette to add new nodes to the database. Similarly, the user can add new relationships by drawings a link between two nodes in the view. The user can delete objects or relationships by clicking on them. The user can modify objects or relationships by clicking on them and changing their properties. The graphical user interface automatically scales and re-adjusts to accommodate the modified object relationships.
