Abstract

Apparatus and methods for protecting a server network from a failure. The network may include a central console. The network may include one or more client servers. The central console may include a transmitter that is configured to periodically transmit to the client server a diagnostic probe. The probe may be selected to ascertain a state of an agent of the client server. The diagnostic probe may include a sequence of queries. Each query may be configured to cause, when the state is “ONLINE,” a normal result in the agent. A processor may be configured to record a reaction of an agent to the query. The reaction may be anomalous. A processor may be configured to map the reaction to a system administrator instruction. The transmitter may be configured to transmit the system administrator instruction to the client server.
