Autonomic Computing Today

an IBM developerWorks newsletter
April 2007


    WSDL \'dubya ess dee el\ n 1 : Web Services Description Language, an
               XML format for describing network services as a set of endpoints
               operating on messages containing document- or procedure-
               oriented information; 2 : yet another acronym (but one you might
               need for implementing autonomic features and saving some
               money)

    SSL \'ess ess el\ n : Secure Sockets Layer, a commonly-used protocol
               for managing the security of message transmission over
               the Internet

    MASH \'mash\ n 1 : Mobile Army Surgical Hospital; 2 : a connotation of
               an extremely effective system that works almost autonomously to
               process a large amount of units (esp. patients, data) through a
               repair system in a short amount of time with little active human
               interaction

    PD \'pee dee\ n 1 : stands for problem determination; 2 : just what
               it sounds like, determining problems; 3 : a bird call

   Kane Scarlett, developerWorks Autonomic computing


 7 lucky resources

Design a WSDL, secure ISC with SSL, build a M*A*S*H for PD triage, ease event reporting, and answer 17 autonomic computing questions.

Quick tip: Design an WSDL to translate httpd concepts
These four simple steps will help you create the necessary Web Services Description Language when you're building a WSDM-compliant interface for a manageable resource with Apache Muse. First in a new tip series.

Play safe: Why you should care about SSL on your ISC
Open Communications Channels + Secure Sockets Layer = Data Security. Or SSL, why you need it on your Integrated Solutions Console, and how to kick it over on ISC 5.1 and 6.0.1. Part 1.

A M*A*S*H for triaging problem determination
Learn to use the tools -- event visualization, symptoms, the Log and Trace Analyzer -- to effect competent problem determination.

M*A*S*H II: A way to triage problem determination
Learn to put event visualization, symptoms, and the Log and Trace Analyzer to work with a method and an application capable of harmonizing manual operation and performing collaborative and complex analysis in order to effect competent problem determination.

Muse WEF implementation makes event reporting a snap
Apache provides a WEF that lets you create, send, and receive WEF events using a simple Java API. Learn how.

Answers from the forums: Make my custom adapter work!
Answers from the forums: Combining Eclipse and static parsers
Answers to 17 pressing autonomic computing questions like how do I make my custom adapter work; import log files from the CEI; get the dependencies for a GLA standalone project; enable an event viewer for ISC; configure GLA XP adapters; use a static parser; handle creation time of milliseconds; install LTA on WAS; parse an XML string on GLA; and more.
