1. A computer-implemented method, comprising:

  • setting, with a processing device, a range of acceptable deviance values from a baseline behavior for parameters of an operating system;

    monitoring the parameters at specified intervals for a deviance from the baseline behavior;

    determining whether the deviance falls within an exception list, wherein the exception list specifies an allowable amount of deviation of the monitored parameter values from the baseline behavior and allowable time values of deviation for the monitored parameter values from the baseline behavior, wherein the allowable time values include a set of time units and percentages of time units for which deviation is expected and wherein the exception list also specifies a list of programs associated with the monitored parameter values; and

    triggering diagnostic data gathering on the parameters of the operating system in response to the deviance exceeding a predetermined threshold.
