MONITORING ALERTS IN A COMPUTER LANDSCAPE ENVIRONMENT

摘要

In a landscape environment, embodiments disclosed herein aggregate alerts into a root alert to reduce the overall alerts being analyzed. A dependency matrix can be used to determine alerts that are redundant due to being derived from a same root problem. In some embodiments, a first alert of a potential problem can be received from a first application or first resource. As a result, a dependency matrix can be checked to determine if a related alert has occurred that is associated with the first alert. If a related alert has already occurred, the first alert can be suppressed. Otherwise, the first alert can be transmitted for further evaluation, such as to a help desk. By suppressing alerts that are dependent on other alerts, a root alert can be generated and forwarded for further evaluation.
