Infrastructure-Aware Autonomic Manager for Change Management


Presentations:
  1. Infrastructure-Aware Autonomic Manager for IT Change Management. (PDF version)  (PPT version)


  2. Autonomic Approach to IT Infrastructure Management in a Virtual Computing Lab Environment (PDF version)  (PPT version)


  3. Infrastructure-Aware Autonomic Manager for IT Change Management Policy-2007. (PDF version)  (PPT version)


Demo Scenarios:
  1. Basic Funcationaliy Scenario:
    2.    This scenario demonstrates the capabilities of the proposed policy engine/language to express high level availability policies.

  2. Support of AND/OR Dependency Graphs:
    3.    Database replicas do exist frequently in IT environments. One way to represent Application dependency for such envrionments is through the use of AND/OR relations in Dependency Graphs. This scenario demonstrates the capabilities of the proposed policy engine / language to understand such relations through Dependency Groups and Voting Nodes.

  3. Scheduling Demo:
    4.    This scenario demonstrates the engine capability of producing non contrading schedules of requested changes.
