Abstract
A system (100) for analyzing a fault includes a fault object factory (110) constructed and arranged to receive fault data and create a fault object (112), and a fault diagnosis engine (101) constructed and arranged to perform root cause analysis of the fault object. The system may further include a fault detector (130) constructed and arranged to detect the fault data in a monitored entity, a fault repository (140) constructed and arranged to store and access the fault object; and a fault handler (150) constructed and arranged to be triggered by the fault diagnosis engine to analyze the fault object.
