Abstrakty

This paper presents two problems that are important nowadays: the problem of IT systems monitoring and the problem of repairing them. It shows the developed solution, aimed to automate the existing industrial repair process and to integrate it with the existing monitoring Solutions and mechanisms. Described solution is a part of a bigger whole, called the Repair Management Framework (RMF). This paper presents also briefly a case study related to the developed and implemented system, showing how it was used to solve the real problem regarding the functioning of database management systems.

Artykuł ten dotyczy dwóch istotnych problemów: problemu monitorowania systemów IT oraz problemu ich naprawiania. Zaprezentowano w nim rozwiązanie umożliwiające automatyzację istniejących procesów naprawczych oraz ich integrację z przemysłowymi systemami i mechanizmami monitorującymi. Opisane rozwiązanie jest częścią większego projektu, nazwanego RMF (Repair Management Framework). W artykule tym zamieszczono również skrótowe studium przypadku dotyczące wytworzonego oraz zaimplementowanego systemu, pokazujące w jaki sposób został on użyty do rozwiązywania rzeczywistego problemu dotyczącego funkcjonowania systemów zarządzania bazami danych.
