1. A system, comprising:
- an application server device comprising at least one processor and configured to execute application server instances, wherein a first application server instance of the application server instances is configured toprocess first adapter-processed information based on a configuration management service to produce server-processed information, wherein the first adapter-processed information is received from a first adapter device via a first communication protocol, and wherein the first adapter-processed information comprises configuration information relating to configuration of a network element device and processed by the first adapter device,send, via a gateway device, the server-processed information to a second adapter device configured to process the server-processed information based on a second communication protocol to yield second adapter-processed information and transfer the second adapter-processed information to an operation support system device, andin response to disablement of the first application server instance, establish an association between the first adapter device and a second application server instance of application server instances and between the gateway device and the second application server instance.

Abstract
A technique for communicating in a network management system is disclosed. The technique includes transferring information from an application server to a gateway that processes the information, transferring the gateway processed information from the gateway to a plurality of adapters associated with the gateway that process the gateway processed information, and transferring the adapter processed information from one of the adapters to a client.

11. A method, comprising:
-
processing, by an application server device comprising at least one processor, adapter-processed information in accordance with a configuration management service executed by a first application server instance of a plurality of application server instances associated with the application server device, wherein the first adapter-processed information is received by the application server device from a first adapter device via a first communication protocol and relates to configuration of a network element device, and the processing produces server-processed information; sending, by the application server device, the server-processed information to a gateway device, wherein the gateway device is configured to transfer the server-processed information to a second adapter device configured to process the server-processed information in accordance with a second communication protocol to yield second adapter-processed information and transfer the second adapter-processed information to an operation support system device; and in response to determining that the first application server instance has become disabled, generating, by the application server device, an instruction configured to associate the first adapter device with a second application server instance of the plurality of application server instances and to associate the gateway device with the second application server instance. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17)

18. A non-transitory computer-readable medium having stored thereon instructions that, in response to execution, cause a system to perform operations, comprising:
-
processing first adapter-processed information using a configuration management service executed by a first application server instance of application server instances to generate server-processed information, wherein the first adapter-processed information comprises configuration information relating to configuration of a network element device and processed by a first adapter according to a first communication protocol; sending the server-processed information to a gateway device configured to send the application-processed information to a second adapter configured to process the server-processed information according to a second communication protocol to yield second adapter-processed information and transfer the second adapter-processed information to an operation support system device; and generating an instruction configured to associate the first adapter with a second. application server instance of the application server instances and to associate the gateway device with the second application server instance in response to determining that the first application server instance has become disabled. - View Dependent Claims (19, 20)
