Abstract (en)

[origin: WO0175677A1] A system and method of monitoring and controlling a variety of hardware and software components in both a computer system and in a linked set of multiple computer systems (70, 72, 74). The components are imbued with methods that allow them to communicate with a component management database [figure 1 and 14] that in turn is used by a configuration manager [40]. The components can describe their parameters, their relationships with other components, and their performance metrics. With this information the configuration manager can monitor and control these components to maximize the availability of the system or the network.
