1. A system for consolidating problem tickets for a multi-tiered application, comprising:

  • a processor; and

    a ticket consolidator module operable to execute on the processor and further operable to identify a plurality of application components of the multi-tiered application, identify problem reports generated by one or more of the plurality of application components of the multi-tiered application and caused by a failure of a same single component of the multi-tiered application, and consolidate the identified problem reports into a single ticket,wherein the ticket consolidator consolidates by determining whether a problem associated with the identified problem reports exist as a problem entry associated with the multi-tiered application and determining whether generation times of the problem reports are within a sensitivity time window with respect to the problem entry associated with the multi-tiered application, and in response to determining that the generation time of the problem report is within a sensitivity time window, identifying the single ticket associated with the problem entry and consolidating the problem associated with the problem reports into the single ticket, and in response to determining that the generation times of the problem reports are not within the sensitivity time window with respect to the problem entry, updating the problem entry with a new timestamp and information associated with the problem reports, and opening a new ticket associated with the updated problem entry.
