Patent number: 11178029Abstract: Methods, systems and articles of manufacture to generate file transfer monitoring criteria are disclosed. An example method obtains a file transfer log file from a first network entity and obtains from the transfer log file, file transfer metadata that is associated with file transfer activity between the first network entity and a second network entity. The file transfer metadata is used to generate a file transfer monitoring criterion that is associated with selectively monitoring the file transfer activity between the first network entity and the second network entity. Service level criteria associated with the file transfer event is automatically updated based on the file transfer monitoring criterion.Type: GrantFiled: October 18, 2019Date of Patent: November 16, 2021Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: S Sridhar, Shamika S. Naik, Thurman O. Pylant, Michael C. Rieser, Steven D. Woodcock, Stuart D. Ander, Palanisamy A. Gounder, Guy Briggs, Ashish Rajput, Lalit Pant, Michael G. Christiansen
