Abstract

See full text

A system for analyzing mutually exclusive conflicts among a plurality of redundant devices in a computer system includes a data management module operable on the computer system. The data management module parses through status data generated by the plurality of redundant devices to identify an error condition in one of the plurality of redundant devices, generate metadata describing the error condition, and take action to resolve the error condition. A method of analyzing mutually exclusive conflicts among redundant devices in a computer system includes collecting status data from the redundant devices, identifying an error condition, generating metadata describing the condition, analyzing the metadata to determine a lowest-level or least impacting redundant device that is the root cause of the condition, and taking an action to resolve the condition.
