Abstract

This paper discusses a management of controlling and monitoring of processes in a distributed system based on Linux and UNIX operating system by using Web Services. We propose a system architecture for handling processes located dispersedly in the Internet. In the design of the system architecture, the level of detail is focused on fault-tolerance aspect as part of non-functional attributes. We also show an experimental design of failure handling service named Hydra, which is based on Web Services. A prototype allows Linux and UNIX systems to provide more availability by restarting the process has been failure. But even more importantly, it enables us to be used by applications no modification to application structure.
