System Debug
The System Debug Workstream is an open workstream of the OCP Hardware Management Project addressing the diagnosis and debugging of data center components and nodes across their lifecycle. It produces architectural documentation defining the interfaces, protocols, APIs, and data models for communicating diagnostic and debug information; analyzes existing architectures and standards-body approaches; addresses scalability across the lifecycle, including accessible ports, diagnostic capabilities, and security and privacy requirements; and coordinates with other workstreams on shared constructs. Its work-in-progress specification is developed on GitHub.

About This Workstream
The System Debug Workstream is a Workstream of the OCP Hardware Management Project and is open to the OCP community.
The workstream addresses the diagnosis and debugging of components and nodes within a datacenter across their lifecycle — defining the interfaces, protocols, APIs, and data models used to communicate diagnostic and debug information, and working with standards bodies and other OCP workstreams on shared constructs.

Scope
The System Debug Workstream addresses diagnosing and debugging components and nodes within a datacenter across the lifecycle. In scope:
- Architecture : architectural documentation defining the interfaces, protocols, APIs, and data models for communicating diagnostic and debug information across the datacenter
- Analysis : analysis of existing architectures and standards-body approaches to improve the effectiveness of diagnostics and debug
- Scale & Lifecycle : scalability across the datacenter lifecycle, including accessible ports, diagnostic capabilities, and security and privacy requirements
- Collaboration : coordination with other workstreams on shared constructs
