Generic method for resource monitoring configuration in provisioning systems
First Claim
1. A method for provisioning resource monitors, the method comprising:
- providing at least one monitor specification, wherein a monitor specification includes a definition of parameters for a monitor;
providing at least one resource specification, wherein a resource specification includes a definition of parameters for a resource; and
associating at least one monitor specification with a resource specification.

Abstract
A generic mechanism and model are provided to capture and store configuration profiles for resource monitors such that monitors can be flexibly deployed, configured, modified, and removed using appropriate sets of parameters and values. As an integral part of resource provisioning, this generic mechanism will require only a generic set of workflows and a generic data model to provision monitors. The provisioning system of the present invention captures and stores response parameters and values from monitors created during initial deployment such that these parameters can be used for later modification and removal of these monitors.
