Abstract:
A management computer coupled to a network device comprises: a processor; and a storage unit that stores effect determination information that defines conditions for determining an effect of an operation by the network device, the conditions being applied to a combination of setting items for the network device, and wherein the processor executes: to select, from among the combination of setting items, a specific combination matching a combination of a first setting item for the network device and a second setting item associated with the first setting item; to determine whether or not the combination of the first setting item and the second setting item satisfies the conditions applied to the specific combination if the specific combination is selected; to identify the presence or absence of an effect resulting from an operation of the network device on the basis of determination results; and to output identification results.
Abstract:
A management server which manages a tenant pattern being information for forming a tenant being an application system for executing a predetermined application by using computer resources within a computer system, the tenant pattern including a configuration item and an ID pool, the management server having: pattern parts information for managing the configuration item as a pattern part that forms the tenant pattern; validation rule information for storing a detail of validation processing for a composition of the tenant pattern; and the management server further comprising: a tenant pattern generation unit; a tenant designing unit for designing a composition of the tenant, and generating a configuration detail for actually building the tenant on the computer system; and a validation execution unit for executing the validation processing for the tenant pattern and the configuration detail based on the validation rule information.
Abstract:
In a communication system in which a plurality of communication apparatuses perform communication via a communication network, a network abnormality detection system dynamically creates a monitoring rule during operation without defining information (monitoring rule) regarding communication to be monitored in advance and perform a collection process and an abnormality determination process quickly even when an amount of information to be monitored is vast. The network abnormality detection system copies packets transmitted at predetermined measurement positions in the communication network, calculates communication statistics information at each measurement position from the copied packets, analyzes one or more pieces of communication statistics information, and detects occurrence of communication abnormality.
Abstract:
A management apparatus that manages a network apparatus having a packet control function, wherein the network apparatus has configuration information that sets the control function, and wherein the management apparatus has: parameter information that manages settings of the control function of the network apparatus; and an inconsistent data detection module that obtains the configuration information from the network apparatus, and upon comparison of the configuration information with the parameter information, detects, as inconsistent data, information that does not match.
Abstract:
A computer system including a management computer for managing the entire system, an integral apparatus, and a high-level connecting device for connecting the management computer and the integral apparatus is designed so that the management computer retains integral apparatus internal configuration information, configuration information about an integral apparatus to be introduced, that indicates the configuration of the integral apparatus that may possibly be introduced to the system, and lifetime information indicating lifetime of the integral apparatus; obtains connectivity guarantee information indicating whether connectivity between the computer and the storage apparatus is guaranteed or not; selects an integral apparatus to be removed from the system by referring to the lifetime information; selects an integral apparatus to be introduced to the system by referring to the integral apparatus internal configuration information, the configuration information about the integral apparatus to be introduced, and the connectivity guarantee information.
