[hyades-dev] RE: Naming of the Agent Controller/Hyades Data Collection Engine
|
All,
This issue was discussed during the TPTP coordination meeting yesterday
and last week's marketing group meeting. The final decision is that the
component is to be called the "agent controller".
To summarise the key points of the discussion, the term "data
collection" was felt to be too narrow in its scope, as the component
will eventually encompass execution as well as collection capabilities.
Some concerns regarding the current over-use of the word "agent" were
raised, but the majority vote went to the term "agent controller".
Many thanks once again to all who participated in this discussion, and
in particular to Nellie for all her help and advice to the marketing
group on this matter.
Best regards,
Melanie

Andy,
Given the discussion at the face to face, the outcome will not be HDCE,
but the Marketing group will have to meet to discuss various
higher-level things before guidelines can be given for these kinds of
subcomponent names.

Iââ'¬â"¢m not sure whatââ'¬â"¢s happened with this since the original
message
was sent. We talked about it last week at the data collection meeting,
and it didnââ'¬â"¢t seem like there was much support there for the name
Data
Collection Engine. As Hoang pointed out, the acronym DCE just
isnââ'¬â"¢t
useable for this, using the full name isnââ'¬â"¢t a very good option
either
and I personally donââ'¬â"¢t particularly like HDCE.
Whatââ'¬â"¢s the current state of the name change?

Given IBM has spent great deal of time in investigating the right name
for the collection engine,
for consistency purpose, we will be adopting this naming convention
unless anyone screams.
For acronym, we do not want to use just DCE (Data Collection Engine).
It will be confusing to existing acronym for Distributed Computing
Environment.
As a result, we will prefix it with Hyades.
The new acronym will be HDCE (Hyades Data Collection Engine).
We will update all our documents and proposals accordingly.
In summary, HCE will go away. HDCE will be its replacement.
Regards,

Re-naming the "Agent Controller".
History:
There are numerous terms floating around in the UI, docs, & service
names
that are being used to describe the data collection engine that is a
part of Hyades.
Some of these terms include:
Agent Controller
RAC
Hyades Data Collection Engine
Hyades Collection Engine
Hyades Data Collector
A number of defects have been opened to track this problem in the UI &
the docs:
70551, 71463, 71592
The inconsistent terminology also causes problems downstream for any
products
that want to build on top of Hyades.
After much consultation with the usability team, editors, & development,
the following solution was proposed:
A generic term will be used throughout the UI & docs.
Term to be used in the UI & in the docs: Data collection engine
The windows service name: Data Collection Engine
Name to appear on product installations: Install the data collection
engine. (sentence-style)
We are going forward with these fixes for Hyades 3.1 i2.
Please let me know if you have any issues with this change.
Thanx.
