Configuration templates for different use cases for a system
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method comprising:
- receiving a use case for a computer system, the use case providing an intended use for the computer system; and
generating an abstract template for the computer system based on the use case, the template being provided via a set of abstract configuration elements stored at a database coupled with the computer system, the template independent of a particular configuration of the computer system and other computer systems, the template being derived from a default configuration of the set of abstract configuration elements and based on the use case being compatible with a plurality of computer systems, the template to dynamically generate, during runtime, one or more settings for the intended use of the computer system.

Abstract
A method and apparatus for configuration templates for different use cases for a system. An embodiment of a method includes receiving an abstract configuration for a system. The received abstract configuration includes a configuration setting. The configuration setting is modified with a template, with the template being designed for a particular use of the system.

5. A system comprising:
-
a database to contain a set of abstract configuration elements, the set of abstract configuration elements including a template for a use case having a particular use for a computer system, the database coupled with the computer system, the template is based on the use case, the template independent of a particular configuration of the computer system and other computer systems, the template being derived from a default configuration and based on the use case being compatible with a plurality of computer systems; and a configuration manager, the configuration manager to generate the template to dynamically generate, during runtime, one or more settings for the intended use of the computer system. - View Dependent Claims (6)

7. A computer-readable medium having stored thereon data representing sequences of instructions that, when executed by a processor, cause the processor to perform operations comprising:
-
receiving a use case for a computer system, the use case providing an intended use for the computer system; and generating an abstract template for the system based on the use case, the template being provided via a set of abstract configuration elements stored at a database coupled with the computer system, the template independent of a particular configuration of the system and other systems, the template being derived from a default configuration of the set of abstract configuration elements and based on the use case being compatible with a plurality of systems, the template to dynamically generate, during runtime, one or more settings for the intended use of the system. - View Dependent Claims (8, 9)
