Filed:

Aug 29, 2000

Appl. No.:

09/650115

Inventors:

Michael R. C. Seaman - Kirkland WA
Anirudh A. Sahni - Redmond WA
Mark S. Blanford - Redmond WA
Isaac J. Heizer - Woodinville WA

Assignee:

Microsoft Corporation - Redmond WA

International Classification:

G06F 944

US Classification:

719315, 719310, 719330, 709201

Abstract:

A systems management subsystem provides resources for managing components and allows components to be manageable. In particular, state information about managed components is encapsulated into objects that are visible in the global name space. The state of a single component may be partitioned into subcomponents that are stored in separate objects. These objects may, in turn, be encapsulated into a single container object that is associated with the managed component. By placing the state information in the global name space, local processes and remote processes may both gain access to internal state information and properly manage the component.
