ABSTRACT:
Provided are a method, system and article of manufacture for fault determination. A duration of time is determined for receiving an event. A plurality of events are received in a time period that is at least twice the determined duration. A plurality of factors are determined corresponding to the plurality of events. At least one factor is determined from the plurality of factors, wherein the at least one factor is a cause of at least one of the plurality of events.
