Abstract
Techniques for processing events in a self-healing system. In one embodiment, the system receives system events, one or more of which may indicate a possible fault condition in the system. A hierarchal rule structure is used to generate a correlated event set. A determining operation determines at least one corrective action to be performed in response to the correlated event set. A deactivating operation deactivates all correlation rules within the hierarchal rule structure that are only used to generate the correlated event set. Repeated instances of the same fault condition are prevented from being processed by the self-healing system.
