Abstract

In this paper, we investigate many monitoring and management tools in Grid and other distributed systems. After focusing on the advantage and disadvantage of GMA (Grid Monitoring Architecture), we propose a new monitoring and management schema for Grid –GMA+. In GMA+, we add a close loop feedback structure to GMA and provides interfaces which match Grid Service standards for all its components and defines metadata for monitoring events. It is a novel infrastructure for Grid monitoring and management with highly modularity, usability and scalability.
