Automated Rule-Based Diagnosis Through a Distributed Monitor System

Overview In today's world where distributed systems form many of the critical infrastructures, dependability outages are becoming increasingly common. In many situations, it is necessary to not just detect a failure, but also to diagnose the failure, i.e., to identify the source of the failure. Diagnosis is challenging since high throughput applications with frequent interactions between the different components allow fast error propagation. It is desirable to consider applications as black-boxes for the diagnostic process. This paper proposes Monitor architecture for diagnosing failures in large-scale network protocols. The Monitor only observes the message exchanges between the Protocol Entities (PEs) remotely and does not access internal protocol state.
