Configuration Maintenance for Distributed Applications Management
The MANDAS project has defined a layered architecture for the management of distributed applications. In this paper we examine a vertical slice of this architecture, namely the management applications and services related to configuration management. We introduce an information model which captures the configuration information for distributed applications and discuss a repository service based on the model. We define a set of services and management applications to support maintenance of configuration information and we describe how the different types of configuration information are collected. Finally, we present two management applications that use configuration information
