A method for predicting a location of a fault in a system is described. The method includes obtaining a faulty unit pertaining to a Supervised Self-Organizing Map (SSOM), wherein the faulty unit has been derived from a sample of machine-level metrics for the system and the SSOM has been trained with a first layer of machine-level metrics and a second layer of service-level metrics. The method further includes expanding a circle originating at the faulty unit until a number of normal units of the SSOM falls within the circle, computing, for each machine-level metric, a score based on differences between the faulty and normal units, wherein a set of scores comprises the respective score for each machine-level metric, and selecting a sub-set of the set, wherein the sub-set comprises the greatest scores of the set, whereby the fault is predicted as located according to metrics represented by the sub-set.
