SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR GENERATING A SNAPSHOT VIEW OF NETWORK INFRASTRUCTURE

Abstract:

A computer may receive a request to generate a snapshot view of the enterprise network infrastructure. The computer may implement a multithread process to contemporaneously query a plurality of blade servers and server enclosures within the entire network infrastructure. The computer may contemporaneously receive a plurality of information files from the queried network resources (e.g. the blade servers, server enclosures). An information file for a network resource may contain information of the network resource such as the operating status, currency (also referred to as assembly date), hardware serial number, firmware version, and/or other information of the network resources. Integrating the information in the received files, the computer may generate snapshot view file. The snapshot view file may be in hypertext markup language (HTML) format. The computer may transmit a selectable link to the snapshot view file to multiple user devices to be displayed in the respective web browsers.
