Abstract
A method of and system for managing diagnostic information is disclosed. The method and system may include creating a data space in volatile memory. The data space may be configured to collect a selected diagnostic information. The selected diagnostic information may include a first diagnostic information from a first source and a second diagnostic information from a second source. The method and system may include collecting in the data space the selected diagnostic information. The method and system may include releasing from the data space at least a portion of the selected diagnostic information in response to a triggering event.
Claims20
A computer implemented method for managing diagnostic information, the method comprising:
- creating a data space in volatile memory configured to collect a selected diagnostic information, the selected diagnostic information including a first diagnostic information from a first source and a second diagnostic information from a second source;
- collecting in the data space the selected diagnostic information;
- and
- releasing from the data space at least a portion of the selected diagnostic information in response to a triggering event.
A computer implemented method for managing diagnostic information, the method comprising:
- creating a data space in volatile memory configured to collect a selected diagnostic information, the selected diagnostic information including a first diagnostic information from a first source and a second diagnostic information from a second source;
- collecting in the data space the selected diagnostic information;
- wrapping in the data space at least a portion of the selected diagnostic information in response to a collection threshold event;
- and
- dumping from the data space at least a portion of the selected diagnostic information in response to an error event.
A system for managing diagnostic information, comprising:
- a remote system;
- and
- a host system, at least one of the remote system and the host system including a diagnostic information management module, the diagnostic information management module comprising:
- a data space creation module that creates a data space in volatile memory configured to collect a selected diagnostic information, the selected diagnostic information including a first diagnostic information from a first source and a second diagnostic information from a second source;
- a collection module that collects in the data space the selected diagnostic information;
- and
- a release module that releases from the data space at least a portion of the selected diagnostic information in response to a triggering event.
