Claim Text:
1. An apparatus comprising: a memory; and a processor coupled to the memory operable to implement: a service management manager configured for defining one or more transaction control primitives and one or more transaction initiation commands for modifying a management tree of a managed device; a device management manager configured for mapping the transaction control primitives and transaction initiation commands to device management commands for the managed device, and for transmitting the device management commands to the managed device; the service management manager further configured to determine a relevance of any of the transmitted device management commands that fail to execute and, when one of the transmitted device management commands is determined to be of low relevance, allow the managed device to modify the management tree without executing the command that failed to execute and, when the one of the transmitted device management commands is alternatively determined to be of high relevance, cause a return to an initial state prior to a start of execution of the transmitted device management commands.
