Abstract: An apparatus, system, and method are provided for automatically discovering and grouping files and other resources used by a business process. The present invention includes a monitoring module that collects trace data representative of operational behaviour of software applications. An analysis module analyzes the trace data to discover resources affiliated with the business process. A determination module defines a logical application corresponding to the business process and includes the resources discovered by the analysis module. The logical application is automatically defined such that business policies may be readily implemented on the logical application as a whole. Manual identification of resources for a business process is eliminated or substantially reduced.

Abstract: Techniques for identifying and selecting equivalent sets of agents with defined capabilities to perform certain actions are disclosed. Determining agents to gather information for a storage area network fabric may be performed through the use of fabric discovery operations which identify agents capable of performing various actions within the fabric. From the determined capabilities of the agents, a dynamic capability grid may be populated to assist with the generation of a list of equivalent subsets to perform the various actions. The most efficient set of agents from each equivalent subset may then be selected to perform actions, with other sets of agents in the equivalent subset available as secondary choices in case of an unexpected failure. For example, a fabric probe may be executed in a storage area network using discovered agents from a list of equivalent subsets to most efficiently accomplish network operations such as zoning and topology.

Abstract: An apparatus, system, and method are provided for automatically discovering and grouping files and other resources used by a business process. The present invention includes a monitoring module that collects trace data representative of operational behaviour of software applications. An analysis module analyzes the trace data to discover resources affiliated with the business process. A determination module defines a logical application corresponding to the business process and includes the resources discovered by the analysis module. The logical application is automatically defined such that business policies may be readily implemented on the logical application as a whole. Manual identification of resources for a business process is eliminated or substantially reduced.

Abstract: Se proporcionan un aparato, sistema y un metodo para descubrir y agrupar automaticamente archivos y otros recursos usados por un proceso comercial. La presente invencion incluye un modulo de verificacion que recolecta datos de rastreo representativos del comportamiento operativo de aplicaciones de programas y sistemas de programacion o software. Un modulo de analisis analiza los datos de rastreo para descubrir recursos afiliados con el proceso comercial. Un modulo de determinacion define una aplicacion logica correspondiente al proceso comercial e incluye los recursos descubiertos por el modulo de analisis. La aplicacion logica es definida automaticamente de modo que pueden ser implementadas facilmente politicas comerciales sobre la aplicacion logica como un todo. La identificacion manual de los recursos para un proceso comercial es eliminada o se reduce sustancialmente.
