Manageability Services for Linux devel

Prototype collection of grid-enabled, on-demand manageability services for Linux resources

Manageability Services for Linux are grid services that provide manageability functions for system resources. (Globus Toolkit 3.0 is included.) These services take advantage of self-describing and on-demand features of grid services to control resources in autonomic and/or grid environments. Manageability Services for Linux is a prototype for such a manageability framework for managing Linux resources. This prototype consists of a Sametime messaging service for notifying users of critical changes, and a collection of manageability services for some of the most commonly used resources, including Linux OS, Linux processes, disk partitions, system statistics, and system services.
