Abstract

Disclosed are an automated management system and method for fault events of a data center. A fault event monitoring unit is configured to check statuses of servers to detect occurrence of a fault event, and if a fault event occurs, determine whether an automated action is possible. A fault event related action recommending unit is configured to, with respect to a fault event that is newly detected by the fault event monitoring unit or determined to be difficult to be resolved by an action stored in a fault event related action storage unit, search for and extract information related to the fault event determined to be difficult to be resolved from information accumulated in a fault event information knowledge storage unit, and based on the extracted information, generate and output a group of automated action candidates for the fault event determined to be difficult to be resolved. A fault event action unit is configured to automatically take an action against a fault event detected by the fault event monitoring unit by use of the action accumulated in the fault event related action storage.
