Abstract

A system, method and article of manufacture are provided for predictive fault management over a network. First, a performance of a network is monitored. Any degradation in the performance of the network is identified. A future performance of the network is predicted based on the identified degradation in the performance of the network. Then the predicted future performance is compared to performance requirements of service level agreements of a plurality of network users to identify any future problems in meeting the performance requirements. The network is reconfigured to avoid the problems in meeting the performance requirements.
