ABSTRACT:
A method, system, and apparatus are provided for performing a diagnostic test on one or more managed system elements. The system includes a managed system element upon which the diagnostic test may be performed, a diagnostic setting object, and a diagnostics control module. The diagnostic setting object is derived from an industry-standard diagnostic setting object prototype and includes one or more properties specified by the prototype and a device-specific settings property identifying one or more settings for the diagnostic test specific to the managed system element. The diagnostics control module performs the diagnostic test on the managed system element and customizes the test according to the device-specific settings property in the diagnostic setting object. The diagnostic setting object may also include a precedence property that indicates whether the device-specific settings property should be utilized by the diagnostics control module rather than any default properties specified by the industry-standard diagnostic setting object prototype.
