Abstract
A solution for managing a computer infrastructure is provided. In particular, the solution can generate a set of tentative recovery segments for the computer infrastructure based on a related resource graph and a set of partition rules. The related resource graph can be generated based on a managed resource graph, which includes resource type information for each node in the managed resource graph. The set of tentative recovery segments can be used to manage the computer infrastructure and/or a set of recovery segments, which includes recovery characteristic(s) for each segment can be generated based on the set of tentative recovery segments and a set of recovery segment templates. In any event, the invention provides a solution that fully and/or partially automates the identification of recovery segments within a computer infrastructure, thereby enabling a more effective management of the computer infrastructure.
