Device management system and device management command scheduling method thereof

Abstract

A device management system and device management scheduling method thereof, in which a server transmits to a client a scheduling context including a device management command and a schedule for the performing of the device management command, and the client generates a device management tree using the device management scheduling context, performs the command when a specific scheduling condition is satisfied, and, if necessary, reports the command performance result to the server, whereby the server performs a device management such as requesting a command to be performed under a specific condition, dynamically varying the scheduling condition, and the like.

Description

[0001] This application is a divisional application of a patent application with an application date of July 8, 2005, a national application number of 200580020148.0 (PCT / KR2005 / 002203), and an invention title of "equipment management system and equipment management command scheduling method". technical field [0002] The invention relates to equipment management and data synchronization technology, and in particular to an equipment management system and its equipment management command scheduling method. Background technique [0003] In general, device management (DM) techniques involve execution of specific processing commands by a client upon receipt of them from a server. [0004] In such a DM technology, the DM server issues a processing command to the DM client, and the DM client immediately executes the corresponding command. The DM client then performs a reporting process on the results of executing these commands. [0005] Also, the DM server requests the DM client...

Problems solved by technology

Therefore, in the prior art of the DM method, the process of enabling the DM server to execute the command of the DM server at a desired time point and state has not been proposed so far.

[0006] In addition, in the prior art, because the DM client must immediately execute the DM command (sent by the DM server when opening (opening) the DM session) during the DM session, considering the internal state of the device or when multiple events occur , such DM commands cannot be executed outside (after) a DM conversation, and cannot be executed at specific desired times or circumstances

These prior art limitations not only increase the overhead involved in performing status diagnostics on the equipment, but also fail to perform effective diagnostics so that problems can be resolved by taking appropriate action before they are likely to occur

Also, these prior art limitations also require a new DM session for executing DM commands, and thus need to endure undesirably high device management costs
