ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus is provided for determining the most probable cause of a problem observed in a complex multi-host system. The approach relies on a probabilistic model to represent causes and effects in a complex computing system. However, complex systems include a multitude of independently operating components that can cause temporary anomalous states. To reduce the resources required to perform root cause analysis on each transient failure, as well as to raise the confidence in the most probable cause of a failure that is identified by the model, inputs to the probabilistic model are aggregated over a sliding window of values from the recent past.
