1. A computer implemented method for performing problem determination within a distributed transaction system comprising the steps of:

  • computing operational limits for a set of resources in a distributed transaction system;

    determining a poor performance status for said resources relative to said operational limits;

    generating a list of root cause components which are likely to be causing said poor performance status;

    prioritizing said list of root cause components; and

    providing said prioritized list of root cause components to a system administrator,wherein the step of computing operational limits for a set of resources in a distributed transaction system further comprises the steps of;

    capturing monitored information from said distributed transaction system;

    computing individual component level thresholds from user level SLAs; and

    generating dynamic dependency data and said monitored information.
