Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A method to reconcile multiple instances of a single computer resource identified by resource discovery operations includes: (1) accessing information describing one or more resources; (2) identifying, via the accessed information, at least one resource that has been detected or discovered by at least two of the discovery operations; and (3) merging attributes associated with the identified resource from each of the at least two discovery operations into a single, reconciled resource object. Illustrative “resources” include, but are not limited to, computer systems, components of computer systems, data storage systems, switches, routers, memory, software applications (e.g., accounting and database applications), operating systems and business services (e.g., order entry or change management and tracking services).
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
The invention claimed is: 1. A method for resource reconciliation, the method being performed by at least one processor, the method comprising: selecting a first resource object from one of a plurality of datasets including a first dataset and a second dataset, each of the first dataset and the second dataset storing un-reconciled resource objects; matching the first resource object with a second resource object stored in one of the plurality of datasets or a reconciled dataset…
