Maintenance Data

When firmware detects a critical error, the product automatically
copies the contents of dynamic random access memory (DRAM) to a
dump area in FLASH memory on the CTP card. Perform this
procedure after a firmware fault or FRU failure to capture data for
analysis by support personnel. Maintenance data includes the dump
file and engineering logs.

NOTE:

An optional full-volatility feature is often required at military sites

that process classified data. If the feature is enabled through a product feature
enablement (PFE) key, a memory dump file (that may include classified Fibre
Channel frames) is not included as part of the data collection procedure.

To collect maintenance data:

1. At the EFCM Basic Edition interface, select System Files from the

Maintenance menu at any view. The System Files View displays
(
