Abstract
A network management information logging system for use in connection with logging management information for a network includes a repository, at least one work queue, a plurality of logging components and a log server main component. The repository configured to store management information for the network. The “at least one” work queue receives logging requests to be processed. Each of the plurality of logging components retrieves logging requests from the work queue, processes the retrieved logging requests in connection with logging information in the repository, and to generate logging responses responsive thereto. The log server main component receives logging requests from the network and loads them into the work queue for retrieval and processing by the logging components. In addition, the log server main component receives the logging responses from the logging components and transfers them to the network. In one embodiment, the logging coponents and the log server main component are both in the form of threads.
