Method and system for managing and controlling host

Abstract

The invention discloses a method and a system for managing and controlling a host and relates to the field of computer networks, aiming to solve the problem that the management and control for a Windows agent host under the Linux are more complex. The method comprises the following steps: a Linux host is in communication with at least one primary Windows agent hot through an SSH (Secure Shell) protocol and manages and controls the primary Windows agent hosts through agent management and control primitive; the primary Windows agent hosts map the agent management and control primitive sent by the Linux host into WMI operating instructions; and the primary Windows agent hosts are in communication with at least one secondary Windows agent host through the WMI, and manage and control the secondary Windows agent through the WMI operating instructions. The system comprises a Linux host, at least one primary Windows agent host and at least one secondary Windows agent host.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of computer networks, in particular to a method and system for managing and controlling a host. Background technique [0002] WMI is the abbreviation of Windows Management Instrumentation (Windows Management Instrumentation), which is a core Windows management technology; users can use WMI to manage local and remote computers. WMI provides a consistent approach to day-to-day management through programming and scripting languages. [0003] SSH is the abbreviation of Secure Shell, formulated by the Network Working Group of IETF; SSH is a security protocol based on the application layer and the transport layer. SSH is generally installed in the Linux distributions of various manufacturers. [0004] At present, the way to realize the management and control of Windows proxy hosts under Linux is relatively complicated. It is necessary to develop WMI communication program in Linux environment or install SSH server and agen...
