Apparatus and method for analysis driven issue report generation

摘要

A computerized apparatus and method generates information descriptive of issues arising in a monitored set of nodes. The method comprises supplying one or more analyzer programs with node-specific information derived from one or more nodes. Each analyzer program is then caused to analyze at least some of the information provided from each node to detect the presence of one or more issues. When an issue is detected, the analyzer program is caused to generate issue identification information which is augmented with information identifying the node from which the node-specific information was derived. The augmented information for all the issues detected is presented in combined form as an issues database suitable for later use in report generation.
