Methods for automatically generating help desk tickets in response to detecting performance and/or availability issues that occur throughout multiple layers of a networked computing environment are described. In some embodiments, in response to detecting an alert corresponding with a performance issue affecting the networked computing environment, a root cause identification tool may aggregate a plurality of alarms from a plurality of performance management tools monitoring the networked computing environment, generate a failure graph associated with the performance issue, identify a first leaf node of the failure graph, determine a first remedy associated with the first leaf node, and automatically generate a help desk ticket corresponding with the first leaf node and the first remedy. The automatically generated help desk ticket may specify the failure associated with the first leaf node, the first remedy, a location associated with the first remedy, and an estimated time to fix the failure.
