A system or method for identifying anomalies indicating misconfiguration or software bugs in a data storage network that may include capturing data storage network latency metrics, identifying periods of high latency in the captured latency metrics, applying a statistical deviation operation to the latency metrics in the periods of identified high latency, and identifying outliers in the statistically deviated latency metrics. The method further includes calculating a median of the identified outliers, normalizing the median of the identified outliers, and scoring the normalized median values of the identified outliers.
