Patent number: 11843528Abstract: One or more lower-tier system monitoring components are installed and operated prior to installing a higher-tier system monitoring component. A lower-tier system may be an individual server, network device, or local area network. A higher-tier system may include an enterprise or organization wide network or service that includes at least a part of the lower-tier system. Once the higher-tier system monitoring component is installed, the higher-tier and lower-tier system monitoring components use an interface to operate with one another to form a single larger instance of an organization wide monitoring system. The combination of the higher-tier system monitoring component and the one or more lower-tier system operating components performs monitoring aspects of the overall information technology environment based at least in part on machine data produced and made searchable to provide monitoring results.Type: GrantFiled: October 22, 2021Date of Patent: December 12, 2023Assignee: Splunk Inc.Inventors: Alan Vincent Hardin, Kan Wu, Arun Ramani, Nicholas Matthew Tankersley, Tristan Fletcher, Alok Bhide

Patent number: 11733829Abstract: In some embodiments, in response to the user selecting a first node in the tree to be pinned, the system displays a first detail panel for the first node, wherein the first detail panel displays state information for the first node, wherein the state information is frozen at the time of pinning. Moreover, in response to the user selecting a second node in the tree to be pinned, the system displays a second detail panel for the second node, wherein the second detail panel displays state information for the second node, wherein the state information is frozen at the time of pinning. Note that the first detail panel is displayed concurrently with the second detail panel to facilitate comparing state information between the first and second nodes.Type: GrantFiled: May 14, 2019Date of Patent: August 22, 2023Assignee: Splunk Inc.Inventors: Tristan Fletcher, Cary Glen Noel, Alok Bhide

Patent number: 11645183Abstract: The disclosed embodiments include a method for identifying a performance metric to diagnose a cause of a performance issues of virtual machine. The method includes obtaining data of a virtual machine, an indication that a storage volume contains data of the virtual machine, data about the storage volume, and an identification of the storage volume. The data of the virtual machine is correlated with the data about the storage volume based on the indication that the storage volume contains data of the virtual machine and the identification of the storage volume. A performance metric is identified based at least in part on an outcome of the correlating. The performance metric indicates that the storage volume is a cause of a performance issue of the virtual machine. A state related to the storage volume is changed to mitigate the cause of the performance issue of the virtual machine.Type: GrantFiled: April 25, 2022Date of Patent: May 9, 2023Assignee: SPLUNK INC.Inventors: Alok A.
