The need for > this workgroup is further driven by web operations http://en.wikipedia.org/ > wiki/Web_operations . > > Monitored resource definitions define the data about entities like > applications, computer systems, storage volumes, etc. commonly used to > observe a coarse-grained summary of a monitored resource's state, e.g. its > self-reported health. Some monitoring tools collect hundreds or more > individual metrics about a range of resources, it is NOT our intent to > reproduce that work in all its richness and detail. Only the subset needed > to satisfy the in-scope scenarios will be included in the resource > definitions, i.e. the subset that most/all tools would be able to provide > and that participants can readily agree on. The approach will be to define a > small number of tightly constrained scenarios, address those by drafting > specifications, collect implementation experience using those drafts, and > then close (finalize) those specifications. This will decrease the barrier > to sharing monitored data across multiple vendors and tools as part of the > Operations Lifecycle. Future iterations of that process may be used to > address additional scenarios and resource types. > > The initial focus will be on application monitoring. This is a key resource > type today. There are many other areas of monitoring that could be covered > in the future such as storage, network, computer system, etc. The workgroup > will be led by Pratik Gupta and Julianne Bielski. > > Steve Speicher could you please add this to the next Core agenda. > > Thanx > > Regards, > > Donald Cronin > Program Director, Tivoli Technical Strategy and Architecture > IBM Software Group > > [image removed] > > Phone: 1-919-224-1452 | Mobile: 1-919-426-5241 > E-mail: [email protected] > > [image removed] > > 3901 S Miami Blvd > Durham, NC 27703-9135 > United States > > _______________________________________________ > Oslc-Core mailing list > [email protected] > http://open-services.net/mailman/listinfo/oslc-core_open-services.net
