Abstract

The present invention relates to a process for monitoring a plurality of object types of a plurality of nodes (N1, N2, . . . , Nn) comprising a management node (MN) in an information system. Monitoring is configured and then distributed in a filtered way from the management node (MN) to autonomous agents (SAA), an autonomous agent being installed in each node to be monitored in order, by providing intertype correlation, either to locally process the different object types or all of the objects of a domain called a global object, defined generically, or to feed back information to be displayed to the graphical interface of the management node, each agent comprising a plurality of specific modules (SM1, SM2, . . . , SMn) specific to the different object types or to a particular domain, each specific module measuring static and dynamic parameters particular to the object type it monitors and collecting said measurements, testing conditions on said parameters relative to predefined thresholds and possibly triggering actions associated with said tested conditions, which parameters, conditions and actions can be modified by the user of the management node.
