Diagnostic Data Capture in a Computing Environment
First Claim
1. A method in a multithreaded computing environment for capturing diagnostic data, the method comprising the steps of:
- in response to a determination that the computing environment is in a predetermined invalid state, a first thread recording diagnostic data for the computing environment,wherein the determination includes a verification that the invalid state corresponds to a state other than a transient state of the computing environment, the transient state corresponding to a transition of the computing environment by one or more other threads from a first valid state to a second valid state.

Abstract
A method in a multithreaded computing environment for capturing diagnostic data, the method comprising the steps of: in response to a determination that the computing environment is in a predetermined invalid state, a first thread recording diagnostic data for the computing environment, wherein the determination includes a verification that the invalid state corresponds to a state other than a transient state of the computing environment corresponding to a transition of the computing environment by a second thread from a first valid state to a second valid state. An apparatus and computer program element for providing such diagnostic data capture are also provided.

- 13. Apparatus in a multithreaded computing environment for capturing diagnostic data, the apparatus comprising a recorder for, in response to a determination that the computing environment is in a predetermined invalid state, a first thread to record diagnostic data for the computing environment, wherein the determination includes a verification that the invalid state corresponds to a state other than a transient state of the computing environment, the transient state corresponding to a transition by at least one other thread from a first valid state to a second valid state.
