US Patent 11403326 Message-based event grouping for a computing operation

Aspects of the invention include determining whether a first log message written by an application during a first job is a message of interest based on a context of the first log message and a probability that the application writes the message for a same job as the first job. Calculating in response to determining that the first log message is a message of interest and by the processor, a correlation score based on intersecting tokens between the first log message and a second log message. Determining the first log message correlates to the second log message based on comparing the score to a threshold score. Modifying a system log of a mainframe to link the first log message to the second log message based on the correlation.
