ABSTRACT:
A system and method for using event management root cause analysis to depict resource dependencies are provided. With the system and method, since the root cause analysis of known event management systems provides a mechanism for defining interactions of enterprise components for root cause analysis purposes, this information is used as a basis for obtaining enterprise component relationship information that may be used by other management applications. That is, the system and method monitor the application of correlation rules to event notifications from various enterprise components and determine relationships of the various enterprise components based on the results of the application of the correlation rules. These relationships may then be stored in a data structure representing the system environment and may be used by other management systems or displayed to the user in a graphical format that graphically represents the system environment.
