Abstract

A method includes providing a service co-processor with a service address space attached to a main processor. The main processor is provided with a main address space. The service co-processor updates the service address space to create and maintain an independent copy of the main address space. The service co-processor receives a system dump request from the main processor, initiates a system dump, and responsive to initiating the system dump, ceases updating the service address space. The service co-processor, upon completion of the system dump, resets the service address space.
