Remember the events are listed chronologically. Stated verbosely:
1: Value 1 happened 1 sequential time
3: Value 3 happened 1 sequential time
1: Value 1 happened 1 sequential time
4:
4: Value 4 happened 2 sequential times
5: Value 5 happened 1 sequential time
4 : Value 4 happened 1 sequential time
2:
2:
2 : Value 2 happened 3 sequential times
4:
4 : Value 4 happened 2 sequential times
7 : Value 7 happened 1 sequential time
4 : Value 4 happened 1 sequential time
So the summary is:
Event type 1 appeared in a cluster of 1 event 2 times
Event type 2 appeared in a cluster of 3 events 1 time
Event type 3 appeared in a cluster of 1 event 1 time
Event type 4 appeared in a cluster of 1 event 1 time
Event type 4 appeared in a cluster of 2 events 3 times
Event type 5 appeared in a cluster of 1 event 1 time
Event type 7 appeared in a cluster of 1 event 1 time
Given the summary table, I can then look at distributions of run-lengths
for different event-types. If I know the distributions for a system
operating normally, I can establish criteria to use for generating
alerts and alarms.
I have generated the above using external programs but if I can do so
with a query, I would prefer to do so.
Cheers,
Steve
