Description

  The present invention relates to a technique for determining a priority of countermeasures from a plurality of maintenance tasks related to a large number of maintenance target devices in a preventive maintenance task of an information processing system, and in particular, a service time zone and the number of users of a system configured with maintenance target devices. The present invention relates to a technique effective for realizing automatic output of work priorities based on the degree of influence calculated from the above and the importance of fault suppression.

  Many data systems are in operation in data centers that provide IT (Information Technology) services. These information systems are composed of hardware and software purchased from various vendors.

  Incidents may occur due to these hardware and software malfunctions, which may result in the suspension of service provided by the information system or degradation in quality. In order to prevent such a situation, preventive maintenance work is required.

  There are many devices in the data center. In addition, since there are a wide variety of hardware and software vendors, there are various problems. In order to efficiently grasp maintenance work related to various troubles scattered in a large number of devices, there can be considered a means for checking whether the hardware or software is the same as that which caused an incident in the past.

  As a means to efficiently perform this, for example, a technique is known in which the hardware to be checked and the installed software are checked against past maintenance work records and the number of failures that occurred in the past, and preventive maintenance work to be automatically enumerated. (See Patent Document 1). With such a technology, it is possible to preferentially extract maintenance work for faults that occur frequently.

Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 7-262056

  However, the present inventor has found that there are the following problems in the technology for efficiently grasping maintenance work related to various problems as described above.

  Although the above technologies can enumerate the maintenance work to be performed, the maintenance work cannot be extracted in consideration of the impact of service interruption or service quality on users and the importance of failures to be prevented. . In other words, there is a problem that it is not possible to enumerate tasks that are conscious of the priority of maintenance operations.

  When prioritizing a large number of mechanically extracted preventive maintenance tasks, the service involved in the target device is clarified, and the worker in charge examines the impact of the service on the incident of the target device individually. Therefore, it is necessary to determine the priority order of the maintenance work, and a lot of man-hours are required by repeating this work periodically.

  An object of the present invention is to provide a technique capable of efficiently performing prioritization of a large number of preventive maintenance work while eliminating the need for labor by an operator.

  The above and other objects and novel features of the present invention will be apparent from the description of this specification and the accompanying drawings.

  Of the inventions disclosed in the present application, the outline of typical ones will be briefly described as follows.

  In order to achieve the above-described object, the present invention uses a maintenance work management system, device information, maintenance information, system information, maintenance work status information, and priority determination criteria to classify a plurality of maintenance works in order of priority. Implement a mechanism that enables report output in list format.

  The present invention is an inventory collection unit that collects and stores device information related to a device to be monitored, device information about the device, device maintenance information, and reference information for determining the priority of maintenance work. The database that stores the priority criteria, the system information that matches the device information stored in the inventory collection unit, and the maintenance information are searched from the database to determine whether the device maintenance work is necessary. The maintenance management system includes a maintenance work management unit that generates maintenance work status information with priorities based on priority judgment criteria when it is determined to be necessary.

  In this maintenance management system, the device information includes the host name of the maintenance target device, the hardware model number, the OS (Operating System) version, and the system ID configured by this device, and is automatically collected by the inventory management system.

  The maintenance information includes the model number of the hardware having the defect, the version of the OS, the importance of the failure to be suppressed, and the countermeasure period. Register maintenance information from the dedicated screen of the maintenance work management system. The system information includes the name of the system that provides the service, the service time zone, the number of users of the service, and the degree of influence when a failure occurs. Register system information from the dedicated screen of the maintenance work management system.

  The maintenance work status information includes the maintenance information that causes the work, the target host name, the status of the maintenance work, the target date of the countermeasure, and the priority of the work. When the maintenance operation management system matches the device information and the maintenance information and determines that the maintenance operation is necessary, the maintenance operation status information in which the priority determined by the priority determination criterion is set is registered.

  The priority determination criterion is a criterion for determining the priority of maintenance work from the importance of maintenance information and the influence of system information. The maintenance work management system solves the aforementioned problems by outputting a plurality of maintenance works in a list format in order of priority.

  Furthermore, the present invention provides a system-based method for automatically collecting device information, registering maintenance information and system information from a screen, automatically generating a maintenance work status from these information, and outputting preventive maintenance work in order of priority. The present invention can also be applied to a program that causes a computer system to function as the system.

  Among the inventions disclosed in the present application, effects obtained by typical ones will be briefly described as follows.

  (1) The priority order of preventive maintenance work can be automatically determined.

  (2) According to the above (1), it is possible to eliminate the man-hours for manually determining the priority order, so that preventive maintenance work can be performed efficiently and at low cost.

<< Example of maintenance information registration process >>
Next, maintenance work information registration processing by the maintenance work management system 7 in the present embodiment will be described.

  FIG. 10 is a flowchart showing an example of maintenance work information registration processing by the maintenance work management system 7.

  Here, it is assumed that the maintenance work management system 7 periodically executes the maintenance work information registration process shown in the flowchart of FIG. First, the maintenance work management system 7 reads the maintenance information 11 stored in the maintenance information database 8 (step S101). If there are a plurality of pieces of maintenance information 11, the process of step S101 is repeated until all the maintenance information 11 is read (step S102).

  Subsequently, the device in which the “target HW model number” in the maintenance information 11 matches the “HW model number” in the device information 5 stored in the device information database 4, and the “target OS” in the maintenance information 11 matches the “OS” in the device information 5. Information 5 is extracted (step S103).

  If there is a plurality of matching device information in the processing of step S103, the processing of step S103 is repeated until all matching device information is extracted (step S104).

  Then, the maintenance work status information 14 in which the “maintenance ID” of the maintenance information 11 matches the “host name” of the extracted device information 5 is extracted (step S105).

  Thereafter, it is determined whether or not the extracted maintenance work status information 14 is existing (step S106). If the maintenance work status information already exists, the process is repeated from step S104 for the next device information. If there is no maintenance work status information 14, the processing from step S107 is executed.

  In the process of step S107, the “influence” of the system information 12 represented by the “system ID” included in the device information 5 is acquired. Subsequently, the priority is determined by collating the “influence” acquired in the process of step S107 with the “importance” included in the maintenance information 11 against the priority determination reference 13 (step S108).

  Then, as maintenance work status information 14 in the maintenance information database 8, 'maintenance ID', 'registration time', 'status (unmeasured)', 'host name', 'priority', 'measure target date (registration date) + (Maintenance information countermeasure period) 'is set (step S109).

  Thus, the maintenance work status information registration process for one piece of device information is completed (step S110). However, when there are a plurality of pieces of extracted device information in the processing of step S103, the processing of steps S104 to S110 is performed for each device. Repeat for each piece of information.

  When the maintenance work status information registration process for all the extracted devices is completed, the process for one piece of maintenance information is completed, and the process for the next maintenance information 11 is repeated from the process of step S102 (step S111). When all the maintenance information has been processed, the processing ends. The registered maintenance work status information 14 is output from the operation terminal 6 as a maintenance work report (FIG. 9) as described above.
