Abstract:
An update system is provided that performs a stop of that service at each machine that hosts that service such that a service that is dependent on another service stops before that other service starts performing a stop. After a machine hosting a service stops, the update system performs an update of that service on that machine. The update system then performs a start of that service at each machine that hosts that service such than a service that another service depends on starts before that other service starts performing a start.
Abstract:
Lifecycle information indicative of a configuration and update state of a computer system are stored. Updates to the computer system are automatically recommended based on the lifecycle information.
Abstract:
An update installer generates an update display for a user that displays available updates. The user can select updates, and the update installer accesses the business processes corresponding to the user's project and displays an impact analysis indicating the impact that the selected updates will have on the processes in the system.
Abstract:
A virtual environment service obtains automatically collected diagnostic information from a deployed instance of a computer system and automatically generates a reproduction of an environment of the instance of the computer system, based upon the collected diagnostic data. User interactions with the virtual diagnostic environment can be recorded to identify a technical issue with the deployed instance of the computer system. A fix for the issue is applied in the virtual diagnostic environment so that it can be verified by the user prior to applying it to the deployed instance.
Abstract:
An update system is provided that generates a service list of services and sorts the services in the service list from least dependent services to most dependent services. Services that are unaffected by updates as determined based on the sorting are removed. An update runbook is generated with steps for updating the services. An order of the steps is based on the sorted service list, and the steps indicate target services, hosting machines and actions to perform on target services.
Abstract:
An update installer generates an update display for a user that displays available updates associated with a target application. The user can select updates, and the update installer accesses processes corresponding to the target application and displays an impact analysis indicating the impact that the selected updates will have on the target application.

Abstract:
An update installer generates an update display for a user that allows the user to select updates to be applied to a computer system. Conflicts that arise because of application of the updates to the computer system are automatically resolved and the results of the conflict resolution are displayed.
Abstract:
An update installer generates an update display for a user that allows a user to select updates in an identified environment. The update installer accesses the objects and layers in the identified environment and displays an impact display identifying portions of the identified environment that will be affected by the selected updates, before the updates are installed.
