A method and system for managing time synchronization services. The system uses standard management protocols to interface with a time synchronization management information base, which in turn interfaces with a time synchronization services module. A uniform and standard mechanism for managing time synchronization services is provided, which includes a user interface which eliminates the need to learn console commands and eases the administration of time synchronization services.

Method and system for time synchronization management

A method and system for managing a distributed directory service. The method includes defining a plurality of objects operative to maintain information about a plurality of partitions in a MIB, implementing the MIB in an agent, loading the agent on a managed server, interfacing the agent with a directory service, and sending a management request from a management station to the agent to access one of the objects. The MIB maintains information about each partition on the managed server, and allows access to such information through conventional network management software.
