Data processing system with automatable administration and method for automated administration of a data processing system

摘要

A data processing system with a plurality of hardware and software components, wherein the components can be controlled by finite automata. The data processing system includes at least one finite sample automaton which is defined so as to be suitable for controlling and monitoring pre-determined component types. Finite automata can be configured for the control of one component on the basis of the defined sample automaton (automata) in conjunction with component-specific parameters, and an event-controlled automaton control component (5) is provided which is constructed for the configuration, instantiation and deletion of finite automata.
