The method then selects one or more criterion for analysis; extracts a portion of the stored data; analyzes the extracted portion of the stored data to detect a plurality of faulty combination of factors and items that results in an unexpected change in a key performance index, according to said extracted portion of the plurality of combinations. The method then performs correlation analysis on said plurality of faulty combinations to determine a root cause for the detected combination of factors; and generates a subset of said plurality of faulty combinations, according to said root causes of said plurality of faulty combinations.
