ABSTRACT:
Method and system for managing boot trace information is provided. The system includes a utility module executed by a computing system processor that enables boot trace collection in a host bus adapter, wherein the utility module enables boot trace collection for different software modules and boot trace information is stored in a designated area of a non-volatile memory, if hardware initialization fails; if firmware loading is unacceptable; if BIOS initialization is unacceptable; and if target discovery is improper.
