| 20100169703 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR DETERMINING AVAILABILITY PARAMETERS OF RESOURCE IN HETEROGENEOUS COMPUTING ENVIRONMENT - A system and associated method for determining an incident of a resource in a computing environment. An event pertaining to the resource is processed by a system automation module. The event is represented as an associated event data having parameters of a target state, a target state prior to the event, a current state, and a current state prior to the event. First, the target state is compared to the target state prior to the event to assure that the target state is steady. Wherein a determination that the event is an incident cannot be made after comparing the target state and the current state, the system automation module compares the current state to the current state prior to the event. Upon determining that the event is an incident, the event data is marked and stored in a repository. | 07-01-2010 |
| 20100169720 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR DETERMINING RECOVERY TIME FOR INTERDEPENDENT RESOURCES IN HETEROGENEOUS COMPUTING ENVIRONMENT - A system and associated method for determining a recovery time for a resource in a heterogeneous computing environment comprising interdependent resources. A graph for the resource representing all sequence dependencies and all group relations are created. The recovery time may be a cumulative startup time or a cumulative shutdown time of the resource considering interdependencies of the resource to other resources. The recovery time for all support resources having sequence dependencies with the resource is calculated and each node representing the support resources are removed from the graph. Then the recovery time for all member resources left in the graph that have group relations with the resource is calculated per a group type of the resource. The recovery time for the resource is a sum of the recovery time of all support resources, the recovery time of all member resources, and a unit recovery time of the resource. | 07-01-2010 |
| 20110270802 | METHOD FOR CONTROLLING CHANGES OF REPLICATION DIRECTIONS IN A MULTI-SITE DISASTER RECOVERY ENVIRONMENT FOR HIGH AVAILABLE APPLICATION - The invention relates to a method of controlling the replication status and direction of a storage device in accordance to its availability state. This overall situation of the storage device is being related to the availability state of applications which have a viable dependency to the storage device | 11-03-2011 |

| 20100169860 | DYNAMIC HIGH AVAILABILITY POLICY CREATION BASED UPON ENTRIES IN A CONFIGURATION MANAGEMENT DATABASE (CMDB) AND A BEST PRACTICES TEMPLATE - A method for dynamically creating of a high availability policy based upon entries in a configuration management database (CMDB) and a best practices template can be provided. The method can include directing resource discovery in a CMDB for a selected application to discover components and dependencies of the selected application. The method also can include mapping the components and dependencies discovered for the selected application in the CMDB to a best practices template specifying a parameterized high availability topology for the selected application. Finally, the method can include storing the best practices template with mapped components and dependencies as a high availability policy for the selected application. | 07-01-2010 |

| 20090049332 | Method and Apparatus for Expressing High Availability Cluster Demand Based on Probability of Breach - A method, apparatus, and computer instructions are provided for expressing high availability (H/A) cluster demand based on probability of breach. When a failover occurs in the H/A cluster, event messages are sent to a provisioning manager server. The mechanism of embodiments of the present invention filters the event messages and translates the events into probability of breach data. The mechanism then updates the data model of the provision manager server and makes a recommendation to the provisioning manager server as to whether reprovisioning of new node should be performed. The provisioning manager server makes the decision and either reprovisions new nodes to the H/A cluster or notifies the administrator of detected poisoning problem. | 02-19-2009 |
| 20100064009 | Method and Apparatus for a Common Cluster Model for Configuring, Managing, and Operating Different Clustering Technologies in a Data Center - A method, apparatus, and computer instructions are provided for a common cluster model for configuring, managing, and operating different clustering technologies in a data center. The common cluster model supports peer cluster domains and management server cluster domains. Each cluster domain may have one or more cluster nodes. For each cluster domains, one or more cluster resources may be defined. These resources may depend on one another and may be grouped into a resource group. A set of cluster domain and cluster resources logical device operations are provided to configure, manage, and operate cluster domains and its associated resources. | 03-11-2010 |
