First Claim
1. A method of generating a graphical user interface, the method comprising:
- monitoring a plurality of elements of a computer system;
collecting data related to a monitored characteristic of each element of the plurality of elements;
analyzing, using multivariate statistical analysis, the collected data at a first time to identify a pattern, wherein the collected data at the first time comprises historical data;
analyzing the collected data at a second time to determine whether the collected data has deviated from the identified pattern;
generating an alert record in response to a determination that the collected data has deviated from the identified pattern, wherein generating the alert record comprises;
identifying a collective sequence of features across a first monitored characteristic and a second monitored characteristic of a particular element of the plurality of elements for which the collected data has deviated from the identified pattern, such that the features in sequence collectively constitute the deviation;
identifying a time period during which the collected data related to the monitored characteristic of the particular element deviated from the identified pattern, wherein the time period comprises a start time indicating when the deviation from the identified pattern was detected; and
generating the alert record including an identification of the particular element;
storing the alert record;
generating for display a graph of information for a particular time period related to the monitored characteristics of the subset of the plurality of monitored elements for which the collected data has deviated from the identified pattern;
generating graphical display information related to the first monitored characteristic of a first element of the plurality of elements for which the collected data has deviated from the identified pattern; and
generating graphical display information related to the second monitored characteristic of the first element of the plurality of elements for which the collected data has deviated from the identified pattern,wherein the information related to the first monitored characteristic and the information related to the second monitored characteristic are displayed together on a graph while excluding information related to monitored characteristics for which the collected data has not deviated from the identified pattern.

Abstract
In accordance with the teachings of the present disclosure, a method of generating a graphical user interface is disclosed. The method includes monitoring a plurality of elements of a computer system and collecting data related to a monitored characteristic of each element of the plurality of elements. The method also includes analyzing the collected data at a first time to identify a pattern and analyzing the collected data at a second time to determine whether the collected data has deviated from the identified pattern. The method further includes generating an alert record in response to a determination that the collected data has deviated from the identified pattern and storing the alert record. Additionally, the method includes generating graphical display information related to the alert record.
