SANtricity 11.8 Commands ( CA08871-194 ~ 196 )

Save storage Array diagnostic data

The save storageArray diagnosticData command saves the storage system diagnostic data from either the controllers or the environmental services modules (ESMs) to a file.

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.

Context

You can review the file contents at a later time. You can also send the file to Fujitsu Support for further review.

After you have saved the diagnostic data, you can reset the NVSRAM registers that contain the diagnostic data so that the old data can be overwritten. Use the reset storageArray diagnosticData command to reset the diagnostic data registers.

Run this command only with the assistance of Fujitsu Support.

Syntax

save storageArray diagnosticData [(controller | tray)]
file="filename"

Parameters

Parameter Description

diagnosticData

This parameter allows you to download the diagnostic data from either the controllers or the ESMs.

file

The file path and the file name to which you want to save the storage system diagnostic data. Enclose the file name in double quotation marks (" "). For example:

file="C:\Program Files\CLI\logs\sadiag.zip"

This command automatically saves the data to a compressed file; however, this command does not automatically append a file extension to the saved file. You must specify the .zip extension when entering the file name.

Notes

In versions of this command before 7.77, the user option was esm instead of tray. Starting in 7.77, tray replaces esm. The use of esm is still supported, but for best compatibility with future releases, replace esm with tray.
