Save input output controller (IOC) dump

The save IOCLog command saves the IOC dumps from the controllers in a storage system to a file on a host.

Supported Series

This command applies to any individual storage system, including the HB2100/HB2200/HB2300, HB5100/HB5200, AB6100 and AB3100 series, as long as all SMcli packages are installed.

Roles

To execute this command on an HB2100/HB2200/HB2300, HB5100/HB5200, AB6100, or AB3100 storage system, you must have the Storage Admin role.

Syntax

save IOCLog [file="filename"]

Parameter

Parameter Description

file

The file path and the file name to which you save the IOC dump. Enclose the file name in double quotation marks (" "). For example:

file="C:\Array Backups\IOCcoredump1.7z"

This command saves the data to a compressed file and adds the file extension .7z to the saved file. The default name of the file that contains the IOC-related data for controllers in the storage system uses the WWN of the storage system.

Notes

This command retrieves from both controllers the IOC dump log data and the IOC dump metadata. Using a 7zip file format, the retrieved data is archived and compressed into a single file with a file name of your choice. The 7zip archive file contains the following:

  • filename+"IOCLog"+[A|B].gz — the IOC logs retrieved from controller A or controller B if available

  • filename+"IOCLogInfo"+[A|B].txt — the IOC logs metadata info retrieved from controller A or controller B . If the IOC log data cannot be retrieved from a controller, the metadata .txt file will contain the error condition and reason.

The following are error conditions:

  • The controller platform and HIC do not support IOC dump.

  • The controllers have not collected IOC dump data.

The compressed logs are not in a human-readable format. You must return the logs to Fujitsu Support to be evaluated.
