Self-reporting and self-upgrading of enterprise systems

Abstract:

Aspects include monitoring for occurrences of selected events at a computer system, the monitoring by a processor that is coupled to the computer system. A list of event records for each of the selected events is built by the processor. The building of event records includes generating an event record for each occurrence of an event detected by the monitoring. The lists of event records for the selected events are merged into a merged list of event records that are in chronological order. A machine report for the computer system that includes the merged list of event records is stored.
