DIAGNOSTIC ANALYSIS TOOL FOR DISK STORAGE ENGINEERING AND TECHNICAL SUPPORT
First Claim
1. A method for reducing storage device vulnerability to degraded performance, data unavailability or data loss, the method comprising:
- storing debug data associated with at least one storage device;
obtaining data for the at least one storage device;
performing an analysis including the obtained data and the stored debug data;
identifying one or more issues and one or more action plans for resolution based upon the analysis; and
providing a report to one or more users including the one or more identified issues and the one or more action plans.

Abstract
The invention pertains to a method and information handling system (IHS) for reducing storage device vulnerability to degraded performance, data unavailability or data loss. An embodiment of the method of the present invention begins by storing debug data associated with at least one storage device and obtaining diagnostic data for the at least one storage device. Next, an analysis is performed using the obtained data and the stored debug data. Then, one or more issues and one or more action plans for resolution may be identified. Finally, a report is provided to one or more users including the one or more identified issues and the one or more action plans.

25. A non-transitory computer readable medium having stored thereon a sequence of instructions which, when loaded and executed by a processor coupled to an apparatus, causes the apparatus to:
-
store debug data associated with at least one storage device; obtain data for the at least one storage device; perform an analysis including the obtained data and the stored debug data; identify one or more issues and one or more action plans for resolution based upon the analysis; and provide a report to one or more users including the one or more identified issues and the one or more action plans.
