Abstract

In large scale and self-managing systems the autonomy of the system has a major impact on the management of such systems. Even if the system can run in a high degree of autonomy a certain level of control over the properties of the system at run-time might be useful, to ensure the system does the right things. In particular, in dynamic environment, where system structure often changes it is desirable to monitor the status of a system to be sure it is still in a normal condition. This paper describes an approach how to use model driven system management for evaluation of global constraints. This allows an automatic or semi-automatic monitoring of autonomous systems, which helps to identify malfunction and wrong self-management of such systems. The approach has been used to check constrains on distributed system realized as CORBA Components.
