Abstract
A baseline adjusting technique allows automatically adjust the baselines of metrics affected by a configuration change a monitored system. If a configuration change is detected, a performance management system retrieves linkages between the changed configuration parameter and one or more metrics. The performance management system then adjusts the baselines of the metric using the baseline adjusting algorithm retrieved from the linkage.
Claims20
A method for monitoring performance of an information technology system, the method comprising:
- detecting a change in a configuration parameter in a computer system;
- identifying at least one linkage between the changed configuration parameter and at least one metric of the computer system, wherein each of the at least one linkage comprise a baseline adjusting algorithm;
- and
- adjusting a baseline for the at least one metric based on the at least one baseline adjusting algorithm.
A method for monitoring performance of an information technology system, the method comprising:
- receiving a change in a configuration parameter in a computer system;
- identifying at least one linkage between the changed configuration parameter and at least one metric of the computer system, wherein each of the at least one linkage comprise a baseline adjusting algorithm;
- retrieving a baseline corresponding to each of the at least one metric;
- identifying at least one baseline adjusting algorithm, from the identified at least one linkage, for the each of the at least one metric;
- and
- adjusting the baseline using the at least one baseline adjusting algorithm.
