DETECTION RULE-GENERATING FACILITY

摘要

An apparatus for generating event detection rules in a multiple-component computer system in accordance with embodiments of the invention may include a configuration information-extracting section for acquiring system configuration information from a multiple-component computer system. The system configuration information may include related information that describes relationships among system components. The apparatus may further include a history information-collecting section for collecting history information from the multiple-component computer system, such as log information and/or failure information output from a component upon a system failure. A candidate event-identifying section may identify candidate events that may be selected by a user to generate a detection rule based on the system configuration information and the history information. Finally, a candidate event-presenting section may present the candidate events to a user for selection.
