    Abstract: A misconfiguration crowdsourcing system arranged to analyze computer system configuration. The computer system configuration may be analyzed with respect to a population of computer systems. In some embodiments, sets of configuration options may be compared for one or more computer systems in a population set. Based on the comparison, a frequency of at least one setting for a client configurable option may be determined. A target characteristic may be identified for a setting of a configuration option based on the frequency of the at least one setting for the configuration option with the population. Computer systems with configuration settings conflicting with target characteristics may be identified as unhealthy.

    Abstract: A method and system for server fault analysis are described. A server configuration analyzer retrieves event logs collected from a server with a fault such as a misconfiguration. These event logs can then be analyzed using metrics to identify one or more messages in the logs that indicate a cause of the fault on the server. Once the messages are identified, the server configuration analyzer retrieves remedial commands that may be used to correct the fault from a database that stores remedial commands correlated with event log messages. The server configuration analyzer can then present the messages and remedial commands to a user to assist with identifying the cause of the fault and correcting it.

    Abstract: Various embodiments are generally directed to techniques for generating effective visualizations of some or all of a storage cluster system. An apparatus includes an API component of a visualization server to make an API available to be called by another device via a network to request information associated with an object that represents a component of a storage cluster system; and a translation component of the visualization server to, in response to a call to the API received via the network that requests information associated with the object, generate query instructions to search for a system entry corresponding to the storage cluster system within a system database and to search for the requested information within the system entry.

    Abstract: Various embodiments are generally directed to techniques for generating effective visualizations of some or all of a storage cluster system. An apparatus includes a processor component; a rendering component to generate a visualization of at least a portion of a storage cluster system for presentation on a display, the visualization to comprise a depiction of an object that corresponds to a component of the storage cluster system; and an interpretation component to interpret received indications of operation of an input device to select the depicted object and to select a first time and a second time along a timeline presented on the display, and to generate a command to request information indicating a change in state of the object between the first and second times.
