Overview
ISO/IEC 10164-5:1993/Cor 2:1999 is a technical corrigendum to the original international standard ISO/IEC 10164-5:1993, published by ISO and IEC. This document addresses the Event Report Management Function within Systems Management as part of the Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) framework. It aims to refine and clarify key aspects related to event reporting and attribute value change notifications in IT systems management.
This corrigendum ensures that changes to attribute values within the event report management processes are handled consistently and effectively, supporting robust system management in open systems interconnection environments.
Key Topics
- Event Report Management Function: Enhances the management of event reporting to improve system monitoring and control.
- Attribute Value Change Notification: Specifies that any change to attribute values must be reported through attribute value change notifications, ensuring accurate and timely updates.
- Updated Attribute Change Handling: Introduces explicit guidelines for handling changes in specific attributes, such as:
discriminatorConstruct
intervalsofDay
weekMask
schedulerName
destination
backupDestinationList
activeDestination
- Alignment with ITU-T Recommendation X.734/Cor.2: Ensures that the ISO/IEC standard remains compatible with relevant ITU-T recommendations related to systems management.
Applications
ISO/IEC 10164-5:1993/Cor 2:1999 is critical for IT professionals and organizations focused on:
- Open Systems Integration: Facilitates interoperability in open systems by standardizing event report management functions.
- Systems Monitoring and Management: Supports enhanced monitoring of system events and attribute changes to maintain operational integrity.
- Network and Infrastructure Management: Helps network managers automate the notification process when critical parameters or configurations change, aiding rapid response.
- IT Service Management: Ensures accurate reporting of system events and changes to support service reliability and compliance.
- Development of Management Tools: Provides a framework for software developers creating management applications compatible with OSI systems.
Related Standards
To ensure comprehensive systems management and interoperability, ISO/IEC 10164-5:1993/Cor 2:1999 should be considered alongside other pertinent standards:
- ISO/IEC 10164 (Systems Management) - The broader system management standards within the OSI model.
- ISO/IEC 7498 (OSI Basic Reference Model) - Foundational OSI concepts essential for understanding the context of event management.
- ITU-T Recommendation X.734 - Corresponding ITU-T recommendation on Event Report Management for aligning global practices.
- ISO/IEC 27000 Series - For integrating event reporting within information security management.
- Other OSI Management Standards (ISO/IEC 10165 series) - Further manage system management information and protocols.
By adhering to ISO/IEC 10164-5:1993/Cor 2:1999, organizations enhance their systems management capabilities with standardized event reporting processes, ensuring efficient, reliable, and interoperable IT operations in open systems environments.
