Abstract
A diagnostic system provides identification of symptoms in a distributed network and an engine for providing recommended rectification of error sources that correspond to the symptoms. The distributed network may be accessed for current statistics. Symptoms may be identified that correspond to the current statistics. A recommended course of action for the distributed network may be provided based on a predetermined list of courses of actions that correspond to rectifying the performance in the error sources.

9. A processor, comprising a computer readable non-transitory memory having computer readable program code embodied therewith, the computer readable program code being configured to:
-
identify current statistics of a distributed network as symptoms of underperformance in the network, determine that the current statistics are beyond operating parameters for the distributed network; identify one or more error sources that correspond to the symptoms; and provide a recommended course of action for the distributed network based on a course of actions that may rectify the error sources. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11)

12. A process of diagnosing faults in a distributed network system, comprising:
-
retrieving current statistics from the distributed network; identifying current statistics showing underperformance in the distributed network; marking current statistics showing underperformance as symptoms; comparing the symptoms to a list of known symptoms; indentifying error sources that correspond to the symptoms; and providing a recommended rectification of the error sources. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15, 16)

17. A computer program product for diagnosing underperformance in a distributed network, the computer program product comprising a computer readable storage medium having computer readable program code embodied therewith, the computer readable program code being configured to:
-
identify symptoms in the distributed network; search a relational knowledge database for error sources corresponding to the identified symptoms; access a list of potential rectifications corresponding to a predetermined list of actions that operate the error sources within acceptable operating parameters; and provide the list of potential rectifications. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20)
