First Claim
Patent Images
1. A remote support system, comprising:
- a communication link to connect to an event log associated with a monitored system; and
an analyzer to monitor the event log over the link and to create a report using information in the event log, wherein in response to the analyzer detecting a user-initiated service mode indication in the information the analyzer includes in the report additional information relating to the user-initiated service mode to facilitate events in the report to be ignored.

Abstract
Some embodiments disclose a remote support system having an analyzer and a communication link to connect to an event log associated with a monitored system. The analyzer is to monitor the event log over the link and to create a report using information in the event log. In response to the analyzer detecting a user-initiated service mode indication in the information the analyzer includes in the report additional information relating to the user-initiated service mode to facilitate events in the report to be ignored.

- 6. A processor-implemented initiator, the initiator being activatable to cause a user-initiated mode indication to be stored in an event log in a memory communicatively connected to the processor, the event log to receive event data relating to a monitored system.
- 13. A method comprising receiving from a user of a monitored system, and storing in an event log in a computer-accessible memory, a user-initiated event indication relating to the monitored system, and using a processor to process the user-initiated event indication according to a computer-implemented rule to determine what subsequently received monitored system event information is reported to a support provider.

17. A method of monitoring a system, the system communicatively connected to a memory storing a system event log, the method comprising:
using a processor to automatically monitor the event log, create reports using information obtained by the monitoring, store the reports in memory communicatively connected to the processor, and in response to detecting user-initiated mode information in the event log, include in a subsequent report updated user-initiated mode status information. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20)
