COMPUTING ENVIRONMENT CONFIGURATION AND INITIALIZATION

摘要

According to one aspect of the present disclosure a method and technique for automatically configuring a set of resources for deployment as a computing environment is disclosed. The method includes: executing a configuration management application, the configuration management application configured to automatically connect to and discover each hardware element forming a networked set of resources; determine whether each discovered hardware element is specified for the computing environment; responsive to determining that each discovered hardware element is specified for the computing environment, determine a configuration setting for each respective discovered hardware element; responsive to determining that the configuration setting of the discovered hardware element conflicts with a desired configuration setting for deployment of the discovered hardware element, automatically configure the discovered hardware element to the desired configuration setting; and automatically load and configure a management interface to enable deployment of the networked set of resources as a computing environment.
