摘要:
Embodiments of the invention provide techniques for troubleshooting of computer systems using a fault tree analysis. In one embodiment, data parameters describing a status of a system may be monitored to determine the existence of a fault. In the event of a fault, fault tree analysis metadata may be evaluated to attempt to determine a root cause of the fault. If a root cause can be automatically determined, it may be presented to a user in a troubleshooting console, or may be used to trigger an automated corrective action. Alternatively, if a root cause cannot be automatically determined, the user may be presented with additional fault tree analysis metadata and any relevant data parameters in the troubleshooting console, so that the user may determine the root cause of the fault event.

According to one embodiment of the present invention, a system enables control of database applications. The system comprises a computer system including a database application to provide access to a database system, and at least one processor. The computer system requests retrieval of application specific property information for the database application from a data repository, and applies the retrieved application specific property information to the database application to control operation of the database application. Embodiments of the present invention further include a method and computer program product for controlling database applications in substantially the same manner described above.

The invention provides method and apparatus for an improved data processing system having an administrative control server; an administrative control database, connected to said administrative control server; and at least one group of servers having similar, but not necessarily identical, configurations adapted for communication with the administrative control server for administrative control thereby, in which the control server can change the configurations of the administered servers to a new desired configuration for each administered server where the new configuration is in synchronization with the configuration of each of said other administered server, by generating synchronization instructions from parameterized synchronization scripts stored in the control database.

The invention provides a method and apparatus for use in an information handling network having an administrative control server and a number of administered servers that are members of the network and are managed by the control server, of providing maintenance of the administered servers for maintaining conformity of configuration of each of the administered servers to a predetermined configuration for all administered servers of the network while permitting evolution of the predetermined configuration from an initial network member configuration to a current network member configuration to which each of the administered servers is to conform, the method including: evolving, as required, the configuration of each server from its current configuration state to the current network member configuration in the following steps: initiating communication, by an administered server, of identification information to the control server identifying the administered server; verifying by the control server whether the administered server is a member of the network managed by the control server, and if it is so managed, then; determining by the control server whether the administered server configuration requires evolution to the current network member configuration; and, if evolution is required by the administered server, then the control server determines what commands are required to evolve the administered server configuration to the current network member configuration; the control server communicates the required commands to the administered server; the administered server executes the required commands to evolve its configuration to the current network member configuration; and the administered server communicates results of the execution of the commands to the control server identifying whether its configuration was successfully evolved to the current network member configuration.
