FUJITSU Network Virtuora SP
Automating customers' operations and maintenance tasks
Virtuora SP automates the operation and maintenance (O&M) of servers, storage and networks by using software to apply acquired knowledge of those tasks in specific scenarios. This allows much faster provision of services to customers and significantly reduces operational costs.
By automating tasks that are normally performed manually, such as collecting device logs and managing device activity and resources, Virtuora SP also improves the quality of O&M tasks.
Example 1: Automation of regular password changes
Time-consuming tasks that are prone to input and configuration errors can be made more efficient through software-based automation. For example, the task of regularly changing passwords, previously performed manually by an operator, can be automated using Virtuora SP.
Example 2: Automated detection of critical fault predictors
Intermittent faults in servers, storage and networks may be predictors of more serious faults in the future. Various tasks performed by operators can be automated in Virtuora SP, such as the checking of fault locations and frequencies. In addition, decisions can be made more rapidly on preventive replacement of devices by regularly running scenarios to check on the location and frequency of faults, based on information extracted from fault history data. Alerts are issued to assist with decision making.
