Abstract:
In various embodiments, methods and systems for modeling or representing hardware inventory based on a topology definition is provided. A topology definition having physical elements and logical elements corresponding to a physical topology layer and a logical topology layer is received. An instance definition for a rack, cluster, or datacenter for a hardware management operation is received. The instance identifies a physical topology and a logical topology for the operation. A hardware management service is executed, based on the topology definition and the instance definition, to manage the hardware inventory of the topology definition. Hardware management of the hardware inventory corresponding to the separately defined physical elements and logical elements is performed with attributes that are defined in the schema. The topology definition can include precision levels that indicate a hierarchical classification of topology components classified at a device level, a rack level, a cluster level, and a datacenter level.

Claim (Index 17):
A system for managing hardware inventory based on topological definitions, the system comprising:\n a topology definition component:\n generating a topology definition having a physical topology layer with physical elements and a logical topology layer with logical elements, wherein physical elements and the logical elements are defined separately from each other in a schema and correspond to attributes of a hardware inventory, and wherein the physical elements define devices, wiring rules between devices, and physical configuration and the logical elements define device roles and logical configuration; \n generating an instance definition for at least one of a rack, cluster, or datacenter, wherein the instance identifies a physical topology and a logical topology of the datacenter; and \n communicating the topology definition and the instance definition for a hardware management operation; \n a hardware management component configured for:\n receiving the topology definition and the instance definition; \n executing a hardware management service based on the topology definition and the instance definition to manage the hardware inventory associated with the topology definition, wherein managing of the hardware inventory corresponding to physical elements and logical elements is performed with attributes that are defined.
