Abstract: Methods and systems for disaster recovery of a network infrastructure to facilitate business continuity. A method including capturing, by at least one computer device, data and ecology information about an entire existing network infrastructure. The method further including generating, by the at least one computer device, a generalized descriptive language for the captured data and ecology information. The method further including reconstructing, by the at least one computer device, the entire existing network infrastructure by introducing functionally equivalent components that correspond to the generalized descriptive language.

Abstract: A system and method of automating the validation and control of peripheral director hardware in a switched fabric network. A system is provided that includes a script language processor for interpreting high-level statements and generating command functions understood by an application programming interface (API) associated with the switched fabric network, wherein the command functions include a query switch command, a query interface switch command, a write switch command, and a display result command; and a system for generating an output in response to a set of command functions submitted to the switched fabric network.

Abstract: A method and system for enabling high-speed recovery and automation of computer workloads. The method comprises the steps of expressing requirements for a computer system and associated networking and peripherals, allowing a customer to specify a recovery instruction, processing the recovery instruction at a recovery site, and using a computer to process the recovery instruction to assign resources at the recovery site to reconfigure the computer system. Preferably, the expressing step includes the step of using a resource definition language to express the requirement of the computer system. The recovery instruction may include process definitions, system control program information, peripheral requirements, networking information, channel extension capabilities and tape vaulting information. Preferably, the computer is used to analyze, map, reconfigure recovery hardware and begin restoration of the customer to a recovery configuration.
