ABSTRACT:
A method is provided for collecting information located within a plurality of hardware elements of a computer system. The hardware elements of the plurality of hardware elements are simultaneously instructed to collect the information. The information within the instructed hardware elements is simultaneously collected. A maintenance system is provided for monitoring the computer system and determining a computer system error in accordance with the monitoring. The step of simultaneously instructing the hardware elements to collect the information is performed in accordance with a computer error determined in this manner. The hardware elements, which may be hardware processors, are provided with individual hardware modules which receive the simultaneous instructions to collect data and direct the simultaneous collection of information within the hardware elements. A transmission link is coupled to each hardware element in the computer system for transmitting the collected information.
