CORRELATION FOR USER-SELECTED TIME RANGES OF VALUES FOR PERFORMANCE METRICS OF COMPONENTS IN AN INFORMATION-TECHNOLOGY ENVIRONMENT WITH LOG DATA FROM THAT INFORMATION-TECHNOLOGY ENVIRONMENT

摘要

Methods and computer-program products are provided for storing a set of performance measurements relating to performance of a component in an IT environment, and associating with the performance measurement a time at which the performance measurement was obtained for each performance measurement in the set of performance measurements. The methods and computer-program products include storing portions of log data produced by the IT environment, wherein each portion of log data has an associated time; providing a graphical user interface enabling selection of a time range; and receiving through the graphical user interface a selection of a time range. The methods and computer-program products further comprise retrieving one or more performance measurements, wherein each of the retrieved performance measurements has an associated time in the selected time range; retrieving one or more portions of log data, wherein each of the retrieved portions of log data has an associated time in the selected time range; displaying an indication of the retrieved performance measurements having their associated times in the selected time range; and displaying an indication of the retrieved portions of log data having their associated times in the selected time range.
