Abstract
A managing computer is arranged by an acquiring device for acquiring log information and event information from any of plural computers connected via a network to each other, the log information indicating as to whether or not an execution of an operation process is carried out under normal condition, and the event information indicating concisely as to whether or not an execution of an operation process is carried out under normal condition; a data controller for storing into a database, operation definition information used to define a schedule of process operations executed in the plural computers in relation to the log information and the event information acquired by the acquiring device; and a display device for displaying the operation definition information in relation to event information related to a process operation defined by the operation definition information with reference to the information stored in the database. Each of the log information and the event information owns a tag indicative of said log information and a tag representative of said event information. This managing computer may have a definition device for forming a schedule of process operations which are commonly executed in all of the plural computers; and a distributor for distributing the process operation schedule formed by the definition device to all of the plural computers. The display device displays on the same display screen, the operation definition information and the event information in relation to predetermined log information among the log information. The acquiring device acquires a preselected sort of log information at predetermined timing. The acquiring device acquires information other than the preselected sort of log information in response to a request. Thus, an integrated management screen can be provided to a user.

22. A computer operation managing method employed in a computer system in which a plurality of computers are connected via a network to a managing computer for managing said plural computers wherein:
-
said managing computer forms in a batch mode operation definition information in which a schedule of administrate operations is defined and a computer for executing each of the administrate operations is defined, and distributes the formed operation definition information to the respective computers;
each of said computers individually forms operation definition information in which a schedule of operations executed by the own computer is defined, and also forms operation definition information in which a portion related to the own computer is expanded from said operation definition information distributed from said managing computer;
said managing computer acquires operation definition information related to said computer, log information indicative of an execution result of the operation process executed in said computer, and event information indicative of an event occurred in an execution stage of said operation process, and then stores the acquired information into a database; and
said managing computer displays the operation related to each of said computers in relation to log information and event invention of administrate operation defined by said operation definition information with reference to the information stored in said database. - View Dependent Claims (23)
