Techniques that improve manageability of systems. Techniques are provided for creating different types of baselines that are more flexible and dynamic in nature. A future-based baseline may be created defining a period of time, wherein at least a portion of the period of time is in the future. A baseline may be created that is a composite of multiple baselines. In general, baselines may be specified having one or more periods of time that are either contiguous or non-contiguous. A template for creating a set of baselines based on a set of time periods may also be created, where the template can be used to create a baseline for each of the set of time periods. A moving window baseline may be created having an associated time window that changes with passage of time, where accordingly the data associated with the baseline may also dynamically change with passage of time.

Future-based performance baselines

Techniques for systematically gathering, organizing, and storing diagnostic data related to multiple monitored systems (e.g., multiple instances of a product or multiple products). A centralized repository is provided that is organized in a hierarchical manner to facilitate proper organization of the diagnostic data related to multiple monitored systems. In one embodiment, a root directory comprising one or more subdirectories is provided for storing diagnostic data collected for each monitored system. Multiple root directories may be provided under a common base directory for storing diagnostic data corresponding to multiple monitored systems. This enables correlation of diagnostic data across multiple monitored systems.

Diagnostic data repository

A diagnosability system for automatically collecting, storing, communicating, and analyzing diagnostic data for one or more monitored systems. The diagnosability system comprises several components configured for the collection, storage, communication, and analysis of diagnostic data for a condition detected in monitored system. The diagnosability system enables targeted dumping of diagnostic data so that only diagnostic data that is relevant for diagnosing the condition detected in the monitored system is collected and stored. This in turn enables first failure analysis thereby reducing the time needed to resolve the condition detected in the monitored system.
