ABSTRACT:
Techniques are provided for automatically diagnosing errors in a software system. The software system automatically determines whether conditions associated with the software system warrant use of any diagnostic features that are not currently enabled. When the software system determines that the conditions associated with the software system warrant use of any diagnostic features that are not currently enabled, the software system determines which of a plurality of available diagnostic features should be enabled. The software system then enables the determined one or more diagnostics features.
