Remote monitoring pool management

摘要

One or more techniques and/or systems are provided for remotely and/or automatically managing a monitoring pool of management servers configured to monitor resources, such as storage devices. For example, a monitoring installer package may be sent from a remote source to a management server for remote installation of a monitoring component capable of monitoring resources. The monitoring installer package may be remotely executed from the remote source to install the monitoring component on the management server. The management server may be assigned to the monitoring pool, and may be configured to monitor, utilizing the monitoring component, a set of resources of a resource pool. In this way, management servers may be remotely added to and/or removed from the monitoring pool. Load balancing may be remotely performed for the management servers assigned to the monitoring pool.

1. A method for managing a monitoring pool of management servers, comprising:
identifying a management server available for resource monitoring; sending a monitoring installer package from a remote source to the management server for remote installation of a monitoring component; utilizing the monitoring installer package to install the monitoring component on the management server; assigning the management server to a monitoring pool of management servers that monitor a resource pool; configuring the monitoring component to monitor a set of resources of the resource pool; hosting a monitoring pool management component on the remote source; responsive to the monitoring pool management component determining that a current monitoring load exceeds a load threshold, automatically provisioning the management server for monitoring the set of resources; and adjusting the load threshold based upon the provisioning of the management server.
