Abstract: A generic mechanism and model are provided to capture and store configuration profiles for resource monitors such that monitors can be flexibly deployed, configured, modified, and removed using appropriate sets of parameters and values. As an integral part of resource provisioning, this generic mechanism will require only a generic set of workflows and a generic data model to provision monitors. The provisioning system of the present invention captures and stores response parameters and values from monitors created during initial deployment such that these parameters can be used for later modification and removal of these monitors.

Abstract: A generic method and model for capturing and storing configuration profiles for each resource in a provisioning system. As a resource is utilized in a specific environment, the configuration values can be changed as needed to reflect different stages in the life cycle of the resource, such as configuration, and modification.

Abstract: Illustrative embodiments provide a computer implemented method, data processing system and computer program product for generating an association between a configuration item and an account. In one illustrative embodiment, the computer implemented method comprises selecting the configuration item requiring account association to create a selected configuration item, and selecting a set of rules for the selected configuration item to form a set of selected rules, wherein the selected set of rules is used to associate configuration items to accounts. Further the method determines whether a match is present between the set of selected rules and the selected configuration item, and responsive to determining that a match is present, obtains account mapping information for an account identified by the match, and associates the selected configuration item with the account using the account mapping information.
