Abstract: A system and method of deriving software use and software data object characteristics determine one or more locations on one or more computer storage devices where one or more configuration and data files associated with computer software components are stored, and obtain one or more attributes associated with said one or more computer software components. One or more commands associated with said one or more computer software components may be issued and one or more related information associated with said one or more software computer components resulting from issuing one or more commands may be collected. The related information and the one or more attributes may be mapped to the computer software components to derive information about the computer software component use and data object use characteristics.

Abstract: The present invention describes a method and system for discovering of server devices. The system and method receive a list of known server devices. The system and method obtain middleware configuration data and/or log files for each of the known server devices in the list. The system and method derives dependencies on at least one other server device from the middleware configuration data and/or log files. The system and method determines whether the at least one other server device is a new server device not included in the list. Thus, the system and method discovers the new server device upon determining that the at least one other server device is not included in the list.

Abstract: A system and method for cost-based migration planning includes determining cost factors and constraints associated with at least one of migrating and transforming a plurality of components. A cost-based model is constructed using the cost factors and constraints. The cost-based model is applied to groupings of the plurality of components to provide a cost-based determination grouping scheme in accordance with the constraints. The grouping scheme is output to provide migration waves for migrating or transforming the plurality of components.

Abstract: Configuration information associated with software installed on a production system may be discovered. A script is automatically generated for capturing data traffic from and to the software installed on the production system using the configuration information. The script may be executed to capture data traffic of the software running on the production system. A migrated version of the software may be executed on a test system using requests extracted from the captured data traffic. The responses in the captured data traffic may be compared with responses from the migrated version of the software.

Abstract: A method and system for discovering dependencies, configurations and utilizations among IT resources are disclosed. A discovery team writes a prediscovery script without requesting credentials and sends it to a system administrator (SA) who already has necessary credentials to execute the prediscovery script. Then, the SA reviews the prediscovery script and executes the prediscovery script on a target server. While or after executing the prediscovery script, the target server generates a result of an execution of the prediscovery script and provides the result to an analysis system. The analysis system analyzes and parses the result and generates a user-friendly data (e.g., graph or spreadsheet) that represents the result. Then, the analysis system provides the user-friendly data to the discovery team. The analysis system does not require credentials and does not directly communicate with the target server except receiving the result of the executed prediscovery script from the target server.

Abstract: A file system interface is simulated out of at least a portion of a dormant computer system. File-based discovery is performed on the simulated file system interface to obtain a detailed inventory of at least the portion of the dormant computer system. The detailed inventory includes one or more of software profiles of at least the portion of the dormant computer system, software instances of at least the portion of the dormant computer system, services of at least the portion of the dormant computer system, and data objects used by the services.

Abstract: Calls to stop functions are identified in a computer program file. The stop functions are functions that interact with external resources. Parameters of the calls to the stop functions that are references to the external resources are identified. An analysis is performed over the computer program file to find out possible values of the parameters of the calls.
