Abstract:
Disclosed is a parameter setting support program. The program stores for each design target that has been previously designed, related information on a plurality of devices included in a design target and information on a settling of a parameter that has been used for designing the target design. Generating using the related information stored in she storage unit, multiple rules with respect to a parameter that is common to the design targets, the rules indicating the conditions and definitions that are used for a setting of the parameter. Generating a design-procedure to execute the rules in accordance with a manually input value of a parameter and the generated rules. The generating procedure may include repeatedly performing a process to identify the rule whose condition is satisfied by a manually input value of a parameter. The method is used to design cloud based network server and storage systems.
Abstract:
A configuration information management device 2 of a distributed plurality of devices 2 each of which includes a storage unit 10 that stores configuration items related to a system and managed by the device and item relationships that associate the configuration items with one another. A management unit 20 creates duplicates of second configuration item(s) that are managed by other devices in the storage unit. The second configuration items, which do not have a feature, are associated with a first configuration item stored in the storage unit which has a feature. Duplicates of item relationships between the first and second configuration items are also created in the storage unit. A search unit 30 that, upon receipt of a search request for configuration information that associates configuration items with one another by the item relationships, searches for the configuration information using the duplicates in the storage unit.
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To appropriately present correction candidates to appropriately correct an orthographic variant.SOLUTION: When a constitution element is newly added from an input unit 6 to a management information storage unit 2, a management device 1 determines whether an attribute value included in the added constitution element agrees with correction information stored in a correction history information storage unit 3 or not. Then, when the attribute value included in the added constitution element agrees with correction information stored in the correction history information storage unit 3, a priority calculation unit 4 compares constitution element information and the relationship information of the correction information with those of the added constitution element to calculate the priority of the correction information. Then, the management device 1 outputs the correction information stored in the correction history information storage unit 3 to an output unit 7 as a correction candidate in accordance with the priority calculated by the priority calculation unit 4.
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To convert a data type of data in a database in steps according to schema change.SOLUTION: A data conversion device 100 accepts a processing request 140 for a CMDB 110 after a schema of the CMDB 110 is changed from an old schema 120 to a new schema 130. The data conversion device 100 determines whether a condition specifying data to be processed at the processing request 140 is changed by the new schema 130 based upon difference information 150 between the old schema 120 and new schema 130. The data conversion device 100 retrieves data as a conversion object to be converted in a data type from the old schema 120 to the new schema 130, from the CMDB 110, based upon a determination result and the processing request 140. The data conversion device 100 converts the data type of the retrieved data 160 from the old schema 120 to the new schema 130.

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To increase search speed in tracking relationships R between configuration items (CI) in a distributed FCMDB.SOLUTION: A configuration information management apparatus 1 includes: a storage unit 10 that stores a configuration item managed by the device and an item relationship, with respect to configuration items related to a system and item relationships that associate the configuration items with one another, the configuration items and the item relationships being distributed in a plurality of devices; a management unit 20 that, when a configuration item stored in the storage unit 10 has a feature, creates duplicates of second configuration items that are associated with the above configuration item, do not have a feature and are managed by other devices and duplicates of relationships between the configuration items, the duplicates being created in the storage unit 10; and a search unit 30 that, upon receipt of a search request for configuration information that associates the configuration items with one another by the item relationships, searches for the information about the configuration information with the use of the duplicates created in the storage unit 10.
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To reduce a time required for mapping between configuration items held in respective databases to be integrated, when integrating different databases. SOLUTION: A similarity calculation device has a relationship-information storage unit for storing relationships between configuration items belonging to an information system in a plurality of databases. And, the similarity calculation device compares the attribute values of an arbitrary configuration item in each of the databases, and counts the number of matching attribute values, across the plurality of databases. Subsequently, the similarity calculation device acquires from the relationship information storage unit a configuration item having a predetermined relationship with the arbitrary configuration item, compares the attribute values of the acquired configuration item, and counts the number of matching attribute values, across the plurality of databases. Then, by using the counted number of attributes, the similarity calculation device calculates a similarity between the configuration items with the attribute values counted.

Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To detect an update instruction to an information processing apparatus and to update information in an FCMDB.SOLUTION: An information processing system includes an information processing apparatus, a storage unit, a repeater unit, and an update unit. The information processing apparatus is an element of the information processing system. The storage unit stores integrated information obtained by integrating information represented as component information on the information processing system and associated with the information processing apparatus. The repeater unit receives communication information including an update command to update component information addressed to the information processing apparatus and transmits first communication information including the update command addressed to the information processing apparatus and second communication information including an update command. The update unit receives the second communication information and updates the integrated information on the basis of the update command included in the second communication information.
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To easily specify data to be integrated.SOLUTION: An information processing device 100 selects configuration information 101 from a configuration information DB 110. The information processing device 100 counts a number "2" of related information 104 and 105 showing a prescribed relationship between a server A and other configuration elements which the selected configuration information 101 among a plurality of pieces of associated information stored in the configuration information DB 110 shows. The information processing device 100 determines whether or not the counted number "2" of the related information 104 and 105 satisfies a constraint condition 120 regulating the number of configuration elements of a relation destination which has an "OwnedBy" relationship with a configuration element of an element kind which is the same as the element kind "server" of the server A. The information processing device 100 outputs a determined determination result 130.
