Hardware systems and integrated software to enable the setting and automated provisioning based on the physical location of the blade

摘要

A set of managed upgrades is described for an integrated software and hardware system that functions as a communications service broker in a telecommunications (telecom) network environment. The system can be used to perform mediation and orchestration of services in the telecom network. The system includes a chassis having a plurality of enclosure slots that are adapted to contain computing blades. Each blade includes a managed server. In addition, the system includes an administration console for managing updates, installation and/or rollbacks on the computing blades. The console receives a request to update a deployment package on a managed server and sequentially distributes the deployment package to each the managed server, wherein the managed servers process the deployment package. The administration console then updates a set of metadata associated with the deployment package in a deployment packages directory.
