Abstract: A method includes providing device management services to by defining one or more transaction control primitives and one or more transaction initiation commands for modifying a management tree of a managed device, mapping the transaction control primitives and transaction initiation commands to device management commands for the managed device, transmitting the device management commands to the managed device, determining a relevance of any of the transmitted device management commands that fail to execute, and based on the relevance determination, allowing the managed device to modify the management tree without executing the commands that fail to execute.

Abstract: A method for arranging transaction control in a device management system. A required transaction control operation is defined in a managing device for arranging transaction control of a management task for a managed device. At least one device management command is defined for the transaction control operation. The at least one device management command is transmitted to the managed device. A required transaction control operation is specified in the managed device onasis of one or more received device management commands, and transaction control for a management task is carried out on the basis of the defined transaction control operation.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for arranging service management in a service management system, the method comprising: defining one or more device management commands on the basis of predetermined mapping instructions and a service management command, transmitting the device management commands to a managed device, specifying in the managed device one or more service management commands on the basis of the received device management commands, and carrying out the defined one or more device management commands.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for specifying information on a management node used for device management in a system comprising a first device and a second device managing the first device. In accordance with the method, at least one piece of management node information specified by a first device is transmitted from the first device to a second device as a response to at least one piece of information on a management node used for device management being specified in the first device.
