Syntax
>>- svcservicemodetask -- -- dumperrlog -- ---------------------> >--+------------------------------+---------------------------->< '- -prefix -- filename_prefix -'
Parameters
- -prefix filename_prefix
- (Optional) Creates a file name 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
With no parameters, the svcservicemodetask dumperrlog command dumps the cluster error log to a file using a system-supplied prefix of errlog, which includes the node ID and time stamp. This information is from when the node was last a part of a cluster. 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 node. When the 11th dump is made, the oldest existing dump file is overwritten.
Error log dump files are written to the /dumps/elogs directory. You can view the contents of this directory using the svcinfo lserrlogdumps command.
Files are not deleted from other nodes until you issue the cleardumps command.
