A data correlation technique is provided for a computing environment having multiple independent operating environments. The technique includes associating by a first operating environment a first key to a set of data to be obtained responsive to an identified event within the computing environment; obtaining by a second operating environment the set of data with the associated first key, and associating a second key therewith; and using the set of data with the associated first key and second key to match to the set of data at least one other set of data obtained by the first operating environment or the second operating environment responsive to the event. The at least one other set of data has only the first key or the second key associated therewith. In one implementation, the event is a fatal event at a network interface adapter.
