Abstract
A method for automated detection of a real IT system problem may include obtaining monitor measurements of metrics associated with activities of a plurality of configuration items of the IT system. The method may also include detecting anomalies in the monitor measurements. The method may further include grouping concurrent anomalies of the detected anomalies corresponding to configuration items of the plurality of configuration items which are topologically linked to be regarded as a system anomaly. The method may further include calculating a significance score for the system anomaly, and determining that the system anomaly relates to a real system problem based on the calculated significance score.
