Abstract:
1. A system for remote administration of multiple servers, the system comprising: a plurality of physical servers; a plurality of Virtual Execution Environments (VEEs) running on the physical servers, each VEE comprising a virtual server; and a central console for controlling the configuration parameters of the physical servers and the virtual servers, wherein the central console comprises a graphic panel, that includes a user interface for remote monitoring and administration of the physical and the virtual servers, and wherein the physical and virtual servers are administered using the graphic panel; a local database on each of the physical servers reflecting configuration parameters of the virtual servers running on the corresponding physical servers; a global database accessed by the central console and reflecting at least some of the configuration parameters of the physical and virtual servers; wherein the system routes the configuration parameters from the central console and the global database to the physical and virtual servers over a network and acquires the configuration parameters from the physical and virtual servers and routes them over the network to the central console, and wherein the system verifies that the configuration parameters are compatible with the physical and virtual servers and then applies the configuration parameters routed from the central console and the global database for configuration of the physical and the virtual servers; and wherein the system stores, in any of the global and local database, the configuration parameters routed to the central console from the physical and virtual servers.
