摘要:
Various aspects of the invention provide a method, apparatus, and software for selecting interconnectivity rules for a computer network environment and visualization on a display of a data processing system interconnectivity rules in an auto provisioning environment, including: selecting a network environment specification having characteristics describing the environment, the characteristics including: number of network security tiers, firewalls, and other network constraints; displaying a graphical representation of the selected network environment, including security tiers, and proposed firewalls, to a user on the display; selecting network objects for the selected network environment, the network objects being selected from a group of objects including: operating systems and other software applications having predefined or configurable characteristics including interconnectivity rules, and firewall rules; populating the displayed network environment with the selected objects; determining network interconnectivity requirements in the selected network environment for the selected objects from their characteristics; and displaying graphical visualizations of the selected objects and graphical visualizations of the network interconnectivity requirements of the objects in appropriate regions of the displayed network environment.
摘要:
A generic mechanism and model are provided to capture and store configuration profiles for resource monitors such that monitors can be flexibly deployed, configured, modified, and removed using appropriate sets of parameters and values. As an integral part of resource provisioning, this generic mechanism will require only a generic set of workflows and a generic data model to provision monitors. The provisioning system of the present invention captures and stores response parameters and values from monitors created during initial deployment such that these parameters can be used for later modification and removal of these monitors.

Disclosed are a method and system for enabling multi-language support for data. A piece of data is captured and translated into a plurality of languages. The original data and all of the translations are stored in the same database instance, for retrieval and presentation in any of a group of languages. The preferred embodiment of the invention provides a design and implementation of generalized database tables to implement the features of NLS Locales and NLS Text Groups, in order to enable the storage and retrieval of dynamic, textual data in multiple languages, concurrently, in a single database instance. The invention enables the scenario wherein a piece of data captured in one language is dynamically translated into all supported languages, and all translations are stored in the same database instance, for retrieval and presentation in any of the supported languages.
摘要:
A generic method and model for capturing and storing configuration profiles for each resource in a provisioning system. As a resource is utilized in a specific environment, the configuration values can be changed as needed to reflect different stages in the life cycle of the resource, such as configuration, and modification.
