To this end, the invention provides a monitor component which is embedded on a software level between the applications and hardware, operating and network transport system and network.

Description

The monitor component of computer system
Be used for telecommunication service (for example service node), being used for so-called task identifies the application program transaction of financial field (for example) or is used for multimedia, require in the data processing equipment of interactive quasi real time Network (computer system) by computer platform (hardware, operation and network transmission system [2] and network) and the set of applications of moving thereon lump together, promptly data processing equipment provides extra high workability as a whole.
Wherein available property should guarantee to address the problem:
● hardware quits work
● the software fault of inside in application program (open-ended circulation (Schleife),
The storer vacancy, sordid file access ...), these cause the performance loss of total system
● outside, out of order incident (the network connection quits work, and connects overload ...) resource contention between single (introducing by different users sometimes) application program of in a system, moving simultaneously
● owing to, the performance of total system is suffered a loss (professional) until refusal by the whole overload of the application program of instantaneous work.
The problems referred to above are by using highly special-purpose hardware and software to solve in present solution.Known starting point is for example to use double hardware and in parallel running or with the data mapping in the hot/cold standby.
The shortcoming of these methods is:
● double preparation and safeguard IT basic facilities (hardware and software)
● highly special-purpose, the limber hook up of patented (propriet  r) operating system and specialized hardware
● therefore being forced to use same and platform has close ties, (protierbar) application program that does not have a famous brand be subjected to the constraint of manufacturer
● because accurate interface of defective fiducial mark and common (" away from the shelf ") hardware component of use and the defective interoperability of software part of providing.
Generally, above-mentioned shortcoming has caused very unsatisfied economy of making us of traditional system that use can highly be provided.Simultaneously such system is only very difficultly to be complementary with IT field technical progress at a high speed.
The task of overcoming above-mentioned shortcoming is basis of the present invention.
This task solves by the present invention.
Be described in detail the present invention by accompanying drawing below, comprising three figure.
The monitor component of narrating below (validity strengthen intermediate equipment) provides can be for the professional basic facilities of use highly, as at field of telecommunications, and the financial field, necessary in the perhaps interactively multi-media network business.
Fig. 1 illustrates how with AEM[3] be inserted in the computer platform (standard operation and network transmission system [2], network and hardware [1]) of computer system and the principle between the application program [4].
AEM[3] represent the solution of pure software, AEM is mounted between the standard operation of computing machine and network transmission system [2] the included hardware [1] and application program [4] as new intermediate equipment layer.The intermediate equipment layer is permitted the annex that AEM is embodied as software engineering at this moment, AEM is constituted the inner portion of computer system newly developed, but also can reequip on the computer system that has existed simultaneously.By corresponding communication channel (being designated as (1) to (7) on Fig. 2 and 3) AEM in Fig. 1 almost is the parts [1] that squeeze with the direct communication of normal mode, between [2] and [4].AEM[3] monitoring application program [4] and operation and network transmission system [2], the reciprocation of network and hardware [1] and the work of revising application program [4] and goal-setting in case of necessity are in order to guarantee to improve whole computer system (hardware, network, operating system, application program) available property.
On the one hand AEM is integrated in (so-called not consistent with AEM application program) (at first this application program that has existed on the application program position that has existed, it only occurs with binary mode) and on the other hand own application programming interface (API) to be offered special be that the application program (the so-called application program consistent with AEM) of the advantage setting of AEM annex provides use, so that offer the possibility of these application program optimal accesses AEM.
Special benefits of the present invention is by the intermediate equipment annex, uses under the open IT normal conditions at standard hardware and software, improves available property.Present integrated annex with the available property that improves application program by specialized hardware and software compactness by being transferred to the intelligence software middle layer, these functions is replaced.
The embodiment that Fig. 2 illustrates Figure 1A EM intermediate equipment annex with sketch is used to improve the available property of data processing equipment.The AEM-structural detail is to indicate with (1) to (7) with [1] to [5] sign, communicating to connect between these elements.
(total system is by hardware [1] for the available property that improves total system [5], operation and network transmission system [2], AEM[3], a plurality of [4as] consistent with AEM and a plurality ofly do not constitute with the application program [4b] of AEM unanimity), handle [4a] consistent with AEM and not with following the carrying out of application program [4b] of AEM unanimity:
The communication (1) of the application program consistent with AEM [4a] is through providing use by AEM, open API[3a] carry out.API this moment as interface at application program consistent [4a] and AEM[3 with AEM] exchange (2) between the corresponding subsystem [3b].AEM [3] as a whole checks and information flow (state notifying and the signalling trouble of analyzing and processing by the application program consistent with AEM [4a] input, resource requirement to operation and network transmission system [2], access on file system and device) existence is with possible the conflicting and the ability to bear of the available property of total system [5] of other application programs.
At AEM[3] in successfully check after, the information flow of application program [4a] that will be consistent with AEM pass on (3) give operation and network transmission system [2].To operate in affiliated AEM subsystem [3b], monitor again with may the replying of network transmission system [3] (3) and pass on (6) give the application program [4a] consistent with AEM.If AEM[3] find conflict or problem then this is returned to the application program consistent with AEM [4a] signaling (6) equally.The application program consistent with AEM in inside through so-called " button.onrelease " so the standard technique of software is opened the processing of this answer and for example with memory requirement is corresponding when postponing till the available property of total system [5] program and permitting again.
Not consistent with AEM application program [4b] is not used through AEM[3] detour, but directly access (4) from the resource of operation and network transmission system [2].The corresponding subsystem [3c] of AEM is monitored these system calls (for example by UNIX operating system " tracking " system program) and is therefore produced system signal (5).Similar with the application program [4a] consistent with AEM, to so obtaining information through not consistent application program [4b] with AEM, from the ability to bear of the available property of the angle that may conflict with other application programs and total system [5] by AEM[3] check as a whole.If AEM[3] known corresponding problem, then attempt by stopping or interrupting these corresponding not consistent application programs [4b] (for example UNIX signal " STOP " or " KILL ") to get rid of (7) corresponding problem with AEM.
Fig. 3 is illustrated on Fig. 1 and 2 basis the detailed structure for the AEM annex embodiment that improves the available property of data processing equipment.
Communicate by letter with the AEM functional mode of (1) to (7) of the structural detail [1] to [5] of Fig. 2 is not accepted to come with changing.Fig. 3 additionally continues to have narrated AEM API[3a], communicate by letter (i1) of the inner structure of AEM subsystem [3b] and [3c] and the AEM-inside of subordinate is to (i4).
AEM API[3a] offer the application program consistent [4a] and guarantee that the interface of whole available property is used for so-called passive objects (PO), file access, memory processes, requirements such as network service with AEM.API provides from Object oriented programming so-called accordingly " counterfoil (Stub) ".On with OO meaning, interface is embodied as for example FTP of standard operation system business, TELNET ... as AEM[3] inner passive objects.
AEM[3] keep information in below the central location about the instantaneous state of total system [5]:
Passive objects (PO) management:
Environment working time of this Single Component Management PO.All application programs consistent with AEM are made of the PO single component according to OO method.
Distribution member:
The task of this unit is; when knotting into association, make full use of the resource (for example load is evenly distributed on all machines) in this association and then protect each machine quitting work owing to local overload according to adjustable criterion according to the data processing equipment of AEM-annex work.For example PO is moved between different data processing equipments for this reason or other data processing equipments in the network are entrusted in the requirement of local PO.
Safety management:
The data and the program coding of different application should keep being separated from each other and avoiding interference in the total system.This task is born by the safety management unit.
Information database:
This unit is a database, preserves the lasting and information of temporary transient important to system therein; The information that for this reason comprises the present system configuration that relates to hardware and software can determine the resource characteristic of the resource requirement that each application program allows for the maximal value of the system resource of arranging, and the current system information of application program about working.
Resource management:
The task of this unit is the local resource of management.The optimization of use that resource management comprises the resource error of finding single application program and different applications compete resource requirements.Belong to monitored resource and comprise particularly CPU, storer, shaft collar takies, and network connects.
The realization of this status information carries out through exchange (2), and exchange is through AEMAPI[3a] use (1) and the application program [4a] consistent with AEM, and carry out through monitor unit with inner (i1).
The effect of monitor is to collect unit and monitoring unit and be bus system mode as AEM subsystem [3b] internal flow of information as the central authorities of total system status information.
At first carry out the AEM that is responsible for the application program [4a] consistent with AEM is given communicate by letter (3) of system [3b] and operation and network transmission system [2] through monitor.Therefore monitor can pass on and give above-mentioned central location about the system status information of the application program consistent with AEM [4a].Secondly monitor also indirectly (i2) obtain status information about sensor unit, sensor unit is arranged in the AEM subsystem [3c] of not consistent with the AEM application program [4b] of the person in charge.Monitor also transfers to above-mentioned central location with these status informations.The system signal (5) that the sensor supervisory system is called (system program that for example passes through " tracking " UNIX operating system) and therefore produced, these are to produce to operation and network transmission system [2] direct access (4) time by not consistent with AEM application program [4b].
If the actual value of the total system state of obtaining in monitor and adjustable specified feature (for example relate to the number of the application program of work when deviation is arranged, machine burden, memory usage, probability of malfunction, network state ...) then the monitor continuation of being used for deviation for so-called " decision maker " unit the total system state transfer (i3) of reality handle.
Relate to the conflict of the available property of system between actual value that decision maker's element analysis is shown by monitor and the nominal value and according to suitable, adjustable criterion (for example by based on rule or based on the programming of situation) take the method that manages conflict so that with system state with therefore the available property of total system [5] is returned to again the scope of permission.
On this basis, decision maker's notice (i4) so-called " decision-making is carried out " decision-making of unit about guaranteeing that the available property of total system [5] is taked.The task of decision-making performance element is to realize the corresponding measure at relevant application program.Corresponding signal is sent to the application program that is construed as limiting available property reason person for this reason.When not consistent application program [4b] with AEM directly (7) as system signal, when the application program consistent [4a] with AEM not directly (6) as AEM API signal.
Fully respond the corresponding signal of decision-making performance element for application program, this unit must (for example be subordinated to master's " root " (owner " root ") of UNIX and have sufficiently high process/job priority, these be again adjustable through the instruction of " nice " unix system with corresponding system priority formation.)。
Incident is given an example:
The application program consistent with AEM:
The application program consistent with AEM [4a] requires (1,2) through AEM API[3a] a plurality of physical storages (RAM).AEM[3] conclusion, this will damage the available property of total system and refuse requirement by the answer [6] of corresponding AEM API in irrational scope.The application program consistent with AEM [4a] responds this answer with its button.onrelease, its method is that it replaces physical storage (RAM) fast, uses (part of having been permitted by AEM before this or replied (6) as first AEM is sometimes selected after the suggestion of one as the two) slow virtual memory (with UNIX term " swapace ").
Not consistent application program with AEM:
Not consistent with AEM application program [4b] is at AEM[3] go up through direct system call to occupy much more very Internet resources, with the available property (network connectivity) of available property that is threatening total system [5] and Internet resources, because every other application program also needs Network simultaneously.AEM[3] in its resource management this conflict of identification with make the requirement of load of remaining application program [4a, b] that the danger of upgrading is arranged by definite not consistent application program [4b] with AEM.Therefore with the decision-making performance element problematic not consistent with AEM application program [4b] is stopped (for example passing through unix system signal " STOP ") through the decision maker temporarily, up to the requirement of permitting by remaining application program according to Internet resources, allow because the occupying of this maximum of single application program.
In not consistent application program or not with AEM with the interactive application of AEM unanimity in, these might damage irrational degree with the available property of total system, therefore as unique device before its final prescribed time-limit only with temporary transient stopping, to guarantee the available property of system as the selection measure.The application program consistent with AEM or with the application program of AEM unanimity can preferably react (for example lowering the requirement) through its button.onrelease in this case on the contrary alternately according to Internet resources.By at AEM[3] and the application program [4a] consistent with AEM between best mutual communication (1,2,6) as can walk around necessary temporarily stopping or even final prescribed time-limit for the extreme measures of not consistent application program [4b] with AEM.Have only when not bringing through the processing of button.onrelease enough as a result the time, just use is for the available property of assurance system stopping or the prescribed timelimit for the application program consistent with AEM [4a].
AEM subsystem [3c] can certainly be controlled the reciprocation of the above-mentioned application program consistent with AEM, additional use on not consistent method and the reciprocation of above-mentioned application program is called or monitored to supervisory system with AEM, these for example be rely on the older version programming of AEM API and now (that is to say if people will be new API programming application program compare when analyzing) or a part of consistent with AEM.
Integrate the present invention at last and following feature/advantage is arranged in data processing equipment in order to ensure the available property of height:
● generally governable, owing to produce and very cheap (" disengaging shelf ") in a large number
On the hardware and software basis, use actual standard (if possible) in the hardware and software field,
● portability that is to say the restriction of the scheme that is not subjected to the hardware determined or software platform
● cancellation " redundant available property " scheme, that is to say for example two hardware, data mapping,
● when using the application program that has existed, be integrated in easily in the system that has existed, that is to say and reuse so-called " database of having installed ".
