Embodiment Construction

[0029] figure 1 with 2 An embodiment of the invention is schematically illustrated. The provisioning system according to the present embodiment includes: a management server 100 and a plurality of resource servers (processing resources) 201-203, which are communicably connected to each other via a network 300. The management server 100 and resource servers 201-203 each have a pre-set location, thus creating a hybrid environment of multiple locations. More specifically, different locations are set for the respective resource servers 201-203 (for example, location=ja_JP set for resource server 201 indicates Japanese language, Japanese currency, etc.; location=en_US set for resource server 202 indicates English, American currency, etc. ; and the location=fr_FR set for the resource server 203 indicates French, French currency, etc.). Also, the location set for the management server 100 is ja_JP, which is different from the locations (en_US, fr_FR) of the resource servers 202 a...

Abstract

A system, a computer program product, and a method capable of dynamically and flexibly support a plurality of locales upon provisioning are provided. A management server connected via a network to a plurality of processing resources each set with a locale includes a storage unit to store processing, a locale, and a set of instructions corresponding to the processing and the locale, and a selection unit to select a set of instructions associated with required processing and a required locale by referring to the storage unit, and it further includes a determination unit to dynamically determine the required processing and the processing resource by way of provisioning, and the storage unit stores the plurality of processing resources and each locale.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to provision technology, and particularly relates to provision technology in an environment where a plurality of locales are mixed. Background technique [0002] In provisioning, multiple information technology (IT) infrastructures (servers, networks, applications, storage) are virtualized and each dynamically allocated from one business process to another as workloads etc. change. More specifically, the management server uses a workflow described in a special script language to send a set of instructions to a corresponding one of the multiple IT infrastructures, thereby assigning a certain business process to the corresponding IT infrastructure. As an actual product, a software product called Tivoli Intelligent Orchestrator available from International Business Machines Corporation, implements provisioning based on virtualization of IT infrastructure, and monitoring of IT infrastructure, dynamic scheduling of IT infrastru...
