ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus of monitoring a computer system having two or more managed systems, by utilizing an optimized distributed policies or rules evaluation knowledge-base. The computer systems includes a subsystem designated as the central point of control and one or more subsystems designated as managed systems. Each of the subsystems include a monitoring agent that is fully-automated and optimized to improve performance of the computer system. A monitoring agent includes watchdog agents, rule evaluator modules and action modules for monitoring various characteristics of the computer system. The monitoring agents are optimized by evaluating policies or rules locally when possible and globally when required.
