Abstract
A data schema and method for storing network management system event data to allow efficient retrieval of information and aggregation for use in tracking system trends and generating useful reports is presented. The invention provides a standardized system event format that is generically available to the user through standard interfaces, along with a method for populating it. The data is easily accessible via standard interfaces to statistical process control, trend tracking, and report generating applications, which present information of interest relating to the events in a useful manner to thereby increase its value.
