Abstract

In response to a notification of a fault captured in a system, a fault isolator serially analyzes each clock object to determine captured faults associated with the clock object. For each of the clock objects determined to have a captured fault, the fault isolator initiates a repair action for the chip represented by the clock object. The fault isolator concurrently analyzes the non-clock objects to determine captured faults associated with the non-clock objects after analysis of the clock objects. For each of the non-clock objects determined to have a captured fault, the fault isolator initiates a repair action for the chip represented by the non-clock object.
