Abstract
A system for diagnosing and correcting errors in remote data processing equipment is provided in which a remote data processor subject to an error condition has associated therewith disk, e.g., diskette storage means together with means for recording on said diskettes, data representing the status of the data processor under a particular error condition. The remote data processor further has associated therewith means for transmitting the status data stored on said diskette. First receiving means distant from the remote data processor receives the transmitted data and means associated with the receiving means reconstruct the diskette containing the error status data whereby this reconstruct diskette is now available for diagnostics at a point distant from said remote data processor.
