Claim 0:
1. A method for data-center management, the method comprising:
in a data center comprising multiple components, monitoring a plurality of performance measures of the components;
automatically defining, by a processor, a set of composite metrics, each composite metric comprising a respective weighted combination of two or more performance measures from among the performance measures;
establishing baseline values for the composite metrics, by the processor;
detecting, by the processor, an anomalous deviation of one or more of the composite metrics from the respective baseline values, wherein an anomalous deviation is declared for a composite metric if the weighted combination of the composite metric is above a corresponding baseline value established for the composite metric; and
changing a path of traffic or redefining a software port, responsive to detecting the anomalous deviation.
