The dumperrlog command dumps the contents of the error log to a text file.
Syntax
>>- svctask -- -- dumperrlog -- --------------------------------> >--+------------------------------+---------------------------->< '- -prefix -- filename_prefix -'
Parameters
- -prefix filename_prefix
- (Optional) A file name is created from the prefix and
a time stamp, and has the following format:
prefix_NNNNNN_YYMMDD_HHMMSS
where NNNNNN is the node front panel name.Note: If the -prefix parameter is not supplied, the dump is directed to a file with a system-defined prefix of errlog.
Description
When run with no parameters, this command dumps the cluster error log to a file using a system-supplied prefix of errlog, which includes the node ID and time stamp. When a file name prefix is provided, the same operation is performed but the details are stored in the dumps directory within a file with a name that starts with the specified prefix.
A maximum of ten error-log dump files are kept on the cluster. When the 11th dump is made, the oldest existing dump file is overwritten.
Error log dump files are written to /dumps/elogs. The contents of this directory can be viewed using the svcinfo lserrlogdumps command.
Files are not deleted from other nodes until you issue the cleardumps command.
