System and method for performing automated system management

This describes a system that automatically fixes computer problems. It uses a detailed map, called a fault tree, which shows how different issues can cause errors and how those errors spread. When the system detects errors, it uses this map to figure out the most likely problems, then automatically adjusts system parts, for example, by isolating a faulty component or reconfiguring a specific unit, to resolve the issue.

Why it matters: Filed before the widespread adoption of cloud computing and microservices, which created highly dynamic and complex systems. Today, automated fault diagnosis and self-healing capabilities are essential for managing such large-scale, distributed environments, and the tools for system reconfiguration are far more advanced.
