Abstract
A computer-implemented method for collecting diagnostic data within a multiprocessor system that includes capturing diagnostic data via a plurality of collection points disposed at a source location within the multiprocessor system, routing the captured diagnostic data to a data collection station at the source location, providing a plurality of buffers within the data collection station, and temporarily storing the captured diagnostic data on at least one of the plurality of buffers, and transferring the captured diagnostic data to a target storage location on a same chip as the source location or another storage location on a same node.
