Identifying correlations between events recorded in a computer system log, the recorded events are generated by a plurality of processes executing on the computer. A system log is partitioned into a plurality of segments, each segment associated with a characteristic found in an event, each segment including one or more events having a same characteristic value. A plurality of attributes of the events in a segment are selected. The attributes selected do not describe an action of the event. One or more distinct n-grams are generated, each distinct n-gram including the selected attributes from successive events within the segment. A distinct n-gram is distinct from all other generated n-grams. A correlation is identified for each first selected attribute of each successive event of an n-gram with all other second selected attributes from each successive event of the n-gram, and the correlations are recorded for each first selected attribute. |
