Abstract
According to one aspect of this disclosure, a distributed control system may include a diagnostic engine, a plurality of computing resources generating diagnostic parameters for transmission to the diagnostic engine, a first communication link operatively coupling the plurality of computing resources to one another, a second communication link operatively coupling the plurality of computing resources to the diagnostic engine, and a remote connection operatively coupling the diagnostic engine to a remote computing resource. The diagnostic parameters may indicate one or more conditions for at least one of the plurality of computing resources. The diagnostic engine locally observes the diagnostic parameters of the plurality of computing resources via the first communication link, and the remote computing resource initiates operation of the diagnostic engine via the remote connection and evaluates the diagnostic parameters remotely.
