  Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.

  FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing an example of the configuration of an information control system according to an embodiment of the present invention.

  In the information control system shown in FIG. 1, as an example, information processing devices P1 and P2 are connected to a command management device 10 according to the present embodiment via connection lines 100 and 200 such as a bus.

  The information processing device P1 includes, for example, a normal computer device (server device, personal computer, etc.). The information processing apparatus P1 includes input devices such as a keyboard and a mouse, or is connected to these input devices provided externally. The information processing apparatus P1 receives a command (an instruction including a specific character string and operating a computer) manually input by the user via the input device. This command is executed by the information processing apparatus P1 and further transmitted to the command management apparatus 10.

  The information processing device P2 includes, for example, a normal computer device (such as a personal computer), as with the information processing device P1. The information processing device P2 may be the same device as the information processing device P1, or may be connected to the command management device 10 via the same connection path 100.

  The command management apparatus 10 has a function of providing a similar command to the information processing apparatus P2 using a procedure manual or work log file of processing executed by the information processing apparatus P1 in accordance with an input command, without manual intervention.

  The input command input to the information processing device P1 by the user and the processing result of the command are sent from the information processing device P1 to the command management device 10 through the connection line 100 in a predetermined log file format.

  As shown in FIG. 1, the command management apparatus 10 includes a command analysis unit 11, a scenario creation unit 12, a procedure manual creation unit 13, and a command input unit 14.

  The command analysis unit 11 analyzes the log file sent from the information processing apparatus P1, and detects a command input part and processing result information. In this analysis processing, the command analysis unit 11 determines that a character string starting with a predetermined symbol (“$”, “#”, etc.) and continuing with a registered command is an input command. If any argument included in a candidate argument that is determined to follow the input command based on the input command actually follows the input command, it is determined that the argument is generated. Further, as a result of analysis of the log file, for example, if the processing result information indicates a clear error state, the collected commands may be discarded.

  The input command, the argument, and the processing result information of the command by the information processing apparatus P1 are notified to the scenario creation unit 12 and the procedure manual creation unit 13.

  The scenario creation unit 12 creates a list of input commands and arguments from the input command and argument detection results by the command analysis unit 11. A set of commands and arguments listed in this way is hereinafter referred to as a scenario. The scenario creation unit 12 according to the present embodiment has a function of creating at least one scenario for automatic command input to the information processing apparatus P2.

  Further, the scenario creation unit 12 has a function of collectively converting a part of a character string in a command in the scenario. Therefore, the variable part in the command (for example, identification information unique to the information processing apparatus) may be converted by the batch conversion function. This function eliminates the need to create a scenario for each information processing apparatus.

  The procedure manual creation unit 13 creates a procedure manual file based on the input command and output result information notified from the command analysis unit 11. In the procedure manual file, an input command and corresponding output result information are described in association (correspondence). The created procedure manual file is stored in the procedure manual holding unit 20.

  When the command management device 10 receives a log file from a device other than the information processing device P1 (for example, the information processing device P2), the procedure manual creation unit 13 adds the other information to the procedure manual file created for the information processing device P1. Procedure manual information (linked commands and output result information) may be added. Alternatively, the procedure manual file may be created as a separate file.

  The procedure manual creation unit 13 also extracts a necessary command from the procedure manual file stored in the procedure manual holding unit 20 and transmits it to the scenario creation unit 12.

  The command input unit 14 functions as an interface unit that provides the information processing device P2 with the scenario (a set of commands and arguments) created by the scenario creation unit 12. The command input unit 14 can input a command to the information processing apparatus P2 without manual input by the user. As a result, a command and argument similar to the command and argument input by the user to the information processing apparatus P1 can be input to the information processing apparatus P2 without human intervention, and the same processing can be repeatedly executed.

  The procedure manual holding unit 20 includes a storage device such as a hard disk device or a flash memory, and stores the procedure manual file created by the procedure manual creation unit 13. In the information control system shown in FIG. 1, the procedure manual holding unit 20 is provided outside the command management device 10, but the procedure manual holding unit 20 may be provided inside the command management device 10. The procedure manual holding unit 20 may be detachably connected to the command management apparatus 10. Further, the procedure manual holding unit 20 may be built in the information processing device P1 (and / or the information processing device P2) or may be connected externally.

  Note that some or all of the functions of the command management apparatus 10 are executed by a processor reading and executing a program stored in the program memory in an information processing apparatus (for example, a personal computer) including a processor, a program memory, and a work memory. It may be realized by software. Alternatively, some or all of the functions of the command management apparatus 10 may be implemented by hardware, or may be realized by cooperation of hardware and software.

  In the example illustrated in FIG. 1, the command management device 10 is provided outside the information processing device P1 and the information processing device P2, but the command management device 10 may be any one of the information processing device P1 and the information processing device P2. It may be built in.

  Next, the operation of the information control system according to the embodiment of the present invention will be described.

In the sequence illustrated in FIG. 2, an example of processing from when a command is input to the information processing apparatus P <b> 1 until the corresponding procedure manual is created is illustrated.

  When a command and a required argument are input to the information processing apparatus P1 (step A201), processing according to the input command and the required argument is performed in the information processing apparatus P1 (step A202). However, when a command that does not require a specific process is input, the process may not be performed.

  In the information processing apparatus P1, a log file in a predetermined format including an input command, necessary arguments, and processing result information is generated (step A203).

  When the log file is generated, the command analysis unit 11 of the command management apparatus 10 connects to the information processing apparatus P1 through the connection line 100 in order to read the log file (step A204). Then, the log file generated by the information processing apparatus P1 is collected by the command analysis unit 11 (step A205).

  The command analysis unit 11 analyzes the read log file and detects an input command, necessary arguments, and processing result information (step A206). The analysis result may be stored (temporarily) in a storage unit provided in the command analysis unit 11. The command analysis unit 11 notifies the procedure manual creation unit 13 of the detected input command, necessary arguments, and output result (step A207).

  The procedure manual creation unit 13 creates procedure manual information in which the notified input command, necessary arguments, and processing result information are linked, and writes the procedure manual information in the procedure manual file (step A208). The created procedure manual file is stored in the procedure manual holding unit 20 (step A209).

  FIG. 3 is a sequence diagram showing a scenario creation operation and a command provision operation to the information processing apparatus in the information control system according to the embodiment of the present invention. The sequence shown in FIG. 3 shows an example of processing from when a command is input to the information processing apparatus P1 to when a similar command is input to the information processing apparatus P2.

  When a command and a necessary argument are input to the information processing apparatus P1 (step B301), processing according to the input command is performed in the information processing apparatus P1 (step B302).

  In the information processing apparatus P1, a log file in a predetermined format including an input command, necessary arguments, and processing result information is generated (step B303).

  When the log file is generated, the command analysis unit 11 of the command management device 10 connects to the information processing device P1 via the connection line 100 in order to read the log file (step B304). And the log file produced | generated by information processing apparatus P1 is collected by the command analysis part 11 (step B305).

  The command analysis unit 11 analyzes the read log file, and extracts an input command, necessary arguments, and processing result information (step B306). The analysis result may be stored (temporarily) in the storage unit in the command analysis unit 11. The command analysis unit 11 notifies the scenario creation unit 12 of the detected input command and necessary arguments (step B307).

  The scenario creation unit 12 creates a list of input commands and necessary arguments, that is, a scenario based on the notified detection result (step B308). In each command included in the scenario, the identification information of the provider of the command is converted from the identification information of the information processing device P1 to the identification information of the information processing device P2 by the batch conversion function of the scenario creation unit 12.

  The scenario created by the scenario creation unit 12 is notified to the command input unit 14 (step B309). The command input unit 14 reads the notified scenario (step B310), and inputs each command included in the scenario and necessary arguments to the information processing apparatus P2 (step B311).

  By the operation as described above, it is possible to automatically provide the information processing apparatus P2 with a command and a necessary argument similar to the command and the necessary argument input to the information processing apparatus P1.

  FIG. 4 is a sequence diagram showing an operation of creating a scenario from a procedure manual in the information control system according to the embodiment of the present invention. The sequence shown in FIG. 4 shows an example of processing until a command generated by extracting procedure manual information from the procedure manual holding unit 20 and a required argument are provided to the information processing apparatus P2.

  In this process, the procedure manual creation unit 13 reads the procedure manual file stored in the procedure manual holding unit 20 (step C401). The procedure manual creation unit 13 extracts an input command and necessary arguments from the read procedure manual file (step C402). The extracted command and necessary arguments are notified to the scenario creation unit 12 (step C403).

  The scenario creation unit 12 creates a list of input commands, that is, a scenario, from the notified command and necessary arguments (step C404). In each command included in the scenario, the identification information of the provider of the command is converted by the batch conversion function of the scenario creation unit 12.

  The scenario created by the scenario creation unit 12 is notified to the command input unit 14 (step C405). The command input unit 14 reads the notified scenario (step C406), and inputs each command included in the scenario and necessary arguments to the information processing apparatus P2 (step C407).

  By the above operation, the same command and the necessary argument as the command and the necessary argument which are input to the other information processing apparatus and held in the procedure manual holding unit 20 are automatically provided to the information processing apparatus P2.
