¢

Do not specify a directory that contains the directory to which the

collected information is output. If you specify this directory, the
DLMgetras utility will run indefinitely.

¢

Lines beginning with a hash mark (#) are handled as comment lines.

¢

If a hash mark (#) is encountered anywhere other than at the

beginning of a line, it is assumed to be part of the path name.

¢

Only one file or directory can be specified per line.

¢

The root directory (/) cannot be specified.

¢

When a directory is specified, the DLMgetras utility collects all the files

in that directory, including files contained in the directory's

subdirectories. If no files are found in a specified directory, the utility

does not perform file collection for that directory and does not create

a directory for it in the destination directory.

¢

Set up the specified file or directory so that it can be read by users

with root permissions. The DLMgetras utility can only obtain

information for a file or directory that can be read.

-h

Displays the format of the DLMgetras utility.

Note

Because the DLMgetras utility first stores error information in the

specified directory to which collected information is output before

compressing, ensure that information collection areas allocated are of

adequate size.

If the specified directory to which collected information is output already

exists, an overwrite confirmation message is displayed. Responding by

entering y instructs the DLMgetras utility to overwrite all of the existing

files. Responding by entering n (or anything other than y) instructs the

utility to terminate without executing.
In the latter case, you can either rename the existing directory before re-

executing the utility, or you can execute the utility with a different

directory name specified.

If you create an archive for the system crash dump collected by the
DLMgetras utility, execute the following:

# cd directory-to-which-collected-information-is-output

# tar cvfh archive-file-name ./var

# compress archive-file-name

In an environment that uses rsyslog from Solaris 11.1 or later, if the

syslog file name is defined by using the macros and template functionality

of rsyslog, syslog cannot be collected even if you execute the DLMgetras

utility. If the syslog file name is defined by using the macros and template

functionality, simultaneously collect syslog in addition to the information

collected by the DLMgetras utility.
