A computer-implemented method, computer system, and computer program product for introspection of classes within source code. A computing device receives access to object-oriented source code. The computing device parses the source code to determine one or more objects contained in the source code. The computing device determines one or more classes associated with the one or more objects. The computing device generates a class table including one or more class data points associated with the one or more determined classes. The computing device generates one or more source code methods to perform a class-level introspection based upon the generated class table.

Tool for introspection in object-oriented source code

An instruction directed towards a network adapter is detected. Based on the detected instruction it is determined that the network adapter should operate in a loopback mode. One or more network signals are transmitted through a dedicated loopback pathway. The transmission is based on the determination. The transmission occurs on a first network interface of the network adapter. The dedicated loopback pathway connects to a second network interface of the network adapter. Listening on the dedicated loopback pathway for the one or more network signals. Performing a network loopback test of the network adapter based on the listening.

Multiport network adapter loopback hardware

A request to perform a testing procedure on a multi-client adapter is received. The multi-client adapter is capable of hosting network connectivity for multiple clients simultaneously and operating within a computing system. A client adapter configuration for the multi-client adapter is determined. The client adapter configuration lists clients that are assigned to the multi-client adapter. The computer system is instructed to operate in an I/O error state. The computer system is instructed in response to the received request and based on the determined client adapter configuration. The I/O error state has a time frame for recovery of a first client of the clients assigned to the multi-client adapter. A first adapter test of the testing procedure is performed on the multi-client adapter during the time frame for recovery and based on the received request.

Input output adapter error recovery concurrent diagnostics

A method for managing an initiation of a computing system. In an embodiment, the method includes a computer processor detecting that a first computing system receives a request to initiate a second computing system. The method further includes accessing a table that includes information associated with a plurality of storage entities that include bootable OS images, where the plurality of storage entities are included in at least one storage system. The method further includes determining a first storage entity that includes a corresponding instance of a first bootable OS image of the requested second computing system. The method further includes initiating the requested second computing system based, at least in part, on the instance of the bootable OS image of the first storage entity.
