  Autonomously detecting and recovering from faults is one approach for
reducing the operational complexity and costs associated with managing
computing environments. We present a novel methodology for autonomously
generating investigation leads that help identify systems faults, and extends
our previous work in this area by leveraging Restricted Boltzmann Machines
(RBMs) and contrastive divergence learning to analyse changes in historical
feature data. This allows us to heuristically identify the root cause of a
fault, and demonstrate an improvement to the state of the art by showing
feature data can be predicted heuristically beyond a single instance to include
entire sequences of information.
