Abstract

Aspects are related to reducing size of diagnostic data downloads. To reduce the size, format and content are read from a diagnostic data file so that pre-defined priority rules may be applied to the diagnostic data file and/or a subset of the diagnostic data file utilizing the format or the content. Then, a priority level is assigned to the diagnostic data file or the subset based on an ability of that file or that subset to diagnose a failure as determined by the pre-defined priority rules. Next, an ordering of the diagnostic data file and/or the subset into a file stream occurs, followed by a streaming of the file stream to a remote diagnostic system. A notification can be received from the remote diagnostic system to stop the streaming if sufficient diagnostic data to diagnose the failure has been received by the remote diagnostic system.
