Abstract
A method of processing data is proposed. In response to determining that a reconfiguration of a data processing system has occurred, one or more system items are surveyed to identify a change to the data processing system. One or more requests for status instructions for the one or more system items are generated, and the status instructions are compiled into a data structure. In response to determining that a status instruction is present in the data structure for which no status data has been collected, a method of collection for the instruction is determined, the collection is performed according to the method to obtain the status data, and the status data is compiled in a dump data structure.
