Abstract
A system and method for analyzing and/or testing member devices in a multi-device system. The multi-device system includes a device-under-analysis (DUA) and a device-under-observation (DUO). An analyzer that is external to the multi-device system generates and sends test messages to the DUA. The analyzer monitors the health of the multi-device system through the DUO and detects a system-wide impact of the DUA caused by the test messages. The analyzer analyzes the DUA based on the test messages and the system-wide impact.
