Claim:
1. A method for monitoring a distributed business transaction over a distributed system of nodes, the method comprising: receiving, by a controller on a server, performance data associated with the nodes that process a distributed business transaction, the performance data received from the agents installed at the nodes; detecting, by the controller, a performance issue with one of the nodes based on the received performance data; selecting one or more of the nodes other than the node associated with the detected performance issue, the one or more of the other nodes associated with a cause of the detected performance issue and the selecting being based on a parameter associated with the node associated with the detected performance issue; and applying a corrective action to the selected one or more of the nodes other than the node associated with the detected performance issue to address the cause of the detected performance issue; and monitoring the node associated with the detected performance issue to determine whether subsequent performance data received for the node associated with the detected performance issue improve after the corrective action is applied to the selected one or more of the nodes other than the node associated with the detected performance issue.
