Fault management overview
The goal of fault management and monitoring is to increase system availability, by moving from
a reactive fault detection, diagnosis, and repair strategy to a proactive fault detection, diagnosis,
and repair strategy. The objectives are as follows:
• To detect issues automatically, as nearly as possible to when they actually occur.
• To diagnose issues automatically, at the time of detection.
• To automatically report in understandable text a description of the issue, the likely causes of
the issue, the recommended actions to resolve the issue, and detailed information about the
issue.
• To ensure that tools are available to repair or recover from the fault.
