Topology based correlation of threshold crossing alarms

摘要

Method, apparatus and computer program product for correlating performance events in a data processing system. A first event is received at one of a first device and a second device of the data processing system, and a second event is received at one of the first device and the second device. A type of a connection between the first device and the second device is identified to form an identified type of connection, and a relationship between the first event and the second event is determined based on the identified type of connection between the first device and the second device.
