Abstract
A system for changing the status of at least one system service, which includes at least one external data manager object for indicating the status of the at least one system service available to request sources, at least one internal data manager object for indicating the status of the at least one system service that is available to connected sources, and a configuration task for maintaining the at least one external data manager object and the at least one internal data manager object.
Claims24
A system for changing the status of at least one system service, comprising:
- at least one external data manager object for indicating the status of said at least one system service available to request sources;
- at least one internal data manager object for indicating the status of said at least one system service that is available to connected sources, which register for a status change notification when the system service status of said at least one internal data manager object changes;
- and,
- a configuration task for maintaining said at least one external data manager object and said at least one internal data manager object, said configuration task registers for a status change notification when said at least one system service status of said at least one external data manager object changes and stores said status change notification in a queue when a previous status change notification is being currently processed.
A method for changing the status of at least one system service using at least one external data manager object to indicate the status of said at least one system service to request sources and at least one internal data manager object to indicate the status of said at least one system service to connected sources, said method comprising the steps of:
- registering to receive a status change notification having a new state value when a system service status of said external data manager object is changed responsive to a system service status change request from a request source;
- determining the system service for the status change once said status change notification is received;
- determining whether said status change is to enable or disable said determined system service;
- enabling the determined system service when the status change notification indicates a service enable request;
- and,
- changing the current state value of the internal data manager object to the new state value of the external data manager for said determined system service when the status change notification indicates a disable service request.
A system for changing the status of at least one system service using at least one external data manager object to indicate the status of said at least one system service to request sources and at least one internal data manager object to indicate the status of said at least one system service to connected sources, said system comprising:
- means for registering to receive a status change notification having a new state value when a system service status of said external data manager object is changed responsive to a system service status change request from a request source;
- means for determining the system service for the status change once said status change notification is received;
- means for determining whether said status change is to enable or disable said determined system service;
- means for enabling the determined system service when the status change notification indicates a service enable request;
- and,
- means for changing the current state value of the internal data manager object to the new state value of the external data manager for said determined system service when the status change notification indicates a disable service request.
