Abstract
The present invention provides a method and system for automated handling of resolvable and non-resolvable errors in the execution of system management flows by enhancing Workflow Engines () by an Error Handling component () and by adding a supportive Error Handling Layer () to invoked system management tasks which serves as the counterpart to the Workflow Engine's Error Handling component (see FIG.). The additional functionality of the task-provided Error Handling Layer () is accessible for the Workflow Engine via extended web services interfaces (). The Workflow Engine's Error Handling component () and the task-provided Error Handling Layer allow for the definition of a standard protocol between the Workflow Engine and invoked tasks () for automated error handling.
