Apparatus and method for collecting and analyzing machine check interrupts generated by a central processor complex. Each logic card is scanned to detect the presence of error data generated by logic circuits on the card. A primary maintenance interface card collects the interrupt information identifying the interrupt as to type of interrupt and location of the card generating the interrupt. A system support adapter reports the collected interrupt information over a LAN to a support processor which may thereafter initiate diagnostic operations with the central processor complex.
