AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

For example, in terms of system resources, it is often expensive to make the many small changes required by automated processing on a complex computer system resource such as a networked database
In such a case, the user may expect the automated process to continue to make large-scale changes to the settings required by the workload, where the large-scale changes vary in a predictable manner over the daily period, but ignore the changes in load conditions caused by Minor changes required for minute-by-minute time changes

Embodiment Construction

[0041] As described in FIGS. 1-5 , the present invention separates the advisor pointer 130 from the pointer 120 of the graphical indicator and control 100 , subject to automated process control, to enable inline manual control on the pointer 120 . Control over the pointer effectively gives control over one or more settings of a computer system resource whose operational status is displayed on the graphical indicator and control 100 . In the embodiment depicted in FIG. 1 , the scale 110 is in linear form with an indicated gradation 112, but other scales and gauge formats (e.g., circular, semicircular, numerical, with two or gauges with more axes) are within the scope of the present invention. The values ​​indicated on scale 110 correspond to one or more values ​​selected by the automated process for one or more settings of computer system resources.

[0042] A "computer system resource" in the context of the present invention may include: a stand-alone computer; a networked co...

Abstract

The present invention concerns methods and apparatus for enabling manual control over selection of a value for at least one operating parameter of a computer system resource. Manual control is enabled by de-coupling a pointer of a graphical indicator and control from an automated system advisor. During automated operation, the automated system advisor selects the value for the parameter of the computer system resource as indicated on a scale of the graphical indicator and control by the pointer. When the pointer of the graphical indicator is under manual control, a user can select the value of the at least one operating parameter of the computer system resource using the pointer of the graphical indicator and control. The present invention also concerns methods and apparatus for disabling manual control over selection of a value for at least one operating parameter of a computer system resource by re-coupling the pointer to an automated system advisor. The present invention further concerns hybrid control modes that permit users to exercise a degree of control over operations of an automated selection process in a graphical indicator and control.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates generally to graphical indicators and controls having an automated control mode for selecting one or more values ​​of one or more parameters of a computer system resource, and more particularly to a method for enabling manual control in graphical indicators and controls. and hybrid control modes to allow a user to manually select one or more values ​​of one or more parameters of a computer system resource and to exert a degree of control over the operation of the automatic control mode. Background technique [0002] User settings for policy-based automation are generally quite "hard-coded" and relatively inflexible. They consist of many individual rules, and there is no high-level or collective mechanism for tuning them. For example, SAN file systems provide automatic initial file layout via a number of rules. In systems with thousands of rules that need to be tuned periodically (mature policy-based systems such as DFSMS...
