Abstract:
One or more processing devices create one or more entity definitions that each associate an entity with machine data pertaining to that entity and create a service definition for a service provided by one or more entities. The service definition includes an entity definition for each of the one or more entities. The one or more processing devices create one or more key performance indicators (KPIs). Each KPI is defined by a search query that produces a value derived from the machine data identified in one or more of the entity definitions included in the service definition. Each value is indicative of how the service is performing at a point in time or during a period of time.
Abstract:
A processing device performs a search query to produce a search result set having entries having data items. Each data item has an ordinal position. A table, having rows and columns, is displayed in a graphical user interface. Each data item of a particular entry appears in a respective column of the same row of the table. Each column corresponds to the ordinal position of its respective data item. User input is received designating, for each respective column, a field name and an entity definition component type to which the respective column pertains, and stores for each data item of the particular entry an element value of an entity definition. The element has the element name designated for the respective column in which the data item appeared, and is associated with an entity definition component having the type designated for the respective column in which the data item appeared.
Abstract:
Processing devices receive a file having entries having data items separated by delimiters. Each data item has an ordinal position. The processing device(s) cause display of a table, having rows and columns, in a graphical user interface. Each data items of a particular entry appears in a respective column of the same row. Each column corresponds to the ordinal position of its respective data item. User input is received designating, for each respective column, a field name and an entity definition component type to which the respective column pertains, and stores for each of the data items of the particular entry a value of an element of an entity definition. The element has the element name designated for the respective column in which the data item appeared, and is associated with an entity definition component having the type designated for the respective column in which the data item appeared.

Abstract:
A computer system exposes an interface for the specification of filter criteria. The filter criteria may identify control information of a service monitoring system (SMS) that defines entities in an IT environment monitored by the SMS. An association of identified entities with a monitored service may be made to direct the ongoing operation of the SMS toward the service.
Abstract:
One or more processing devices cause display of a graphical user interface (GUI) enabling a user to specify filter criteria for identifying one or more entity definitions, store the filter criteria in association with a service definition in response to user input, apply the filter criteria to identify one or more entity definitions satisfying the filter criteria, and associate the identified one or more entity definitions with the service definition. The service definition represents a service provided by one or more entities each having a representative entity definition comprising information to identify machine data corresponding to the entity.
