System and methods are provided for automated alarm handling in a communications network by linking network failures to impacted resources. One embodiment includes correlating one or more network failures to a common network resource in a communications network, associating each network component of the communications network one to another, where the network components include one common network resource, attributing fault data originating from one or more of the network components to an associated common network resource, and collecting in a central data structure the attributed fault data with the associated common network resource.
