Downloading Trace Files Using the FD Dump Tool
Remote Web Console supports the FD Dump Tool. The FD Dump Tool is available to only storage
administrators, and allows them to download the Remote Web Console configuration information
from the SVP either onto a floppy disk or onto a hard disk drive. The downloaded information
(trace files) can be used by HP service representatives to diagnose problems related to Remote
Web Console operations for troubleshooting purposes.
Only storage administrators can use the FD Dump Tool. However, if a user ID or password includes
a symbol, this storage administrator may not be able to use the FD Dump Tool. In addition, if
another user (including an SVP user) is using the FD Dump Tool, or a maintenance operation is
being performed, you cannot download trace files using the FD Dump Tool.
If you are unable to resolve an error condition, copy the Remote Web Console configuration
information onto floppy disks using the FD Dump Tool. Contact HP technical support (see
HP Technical Support” (page 136)
), and give the information on the floppy disks to the HP service
representative.
To download trace files to see the configuration information, select the Refresh All ( ) command
from the menu bar of Remote Web Console first to refresh the configuration information, and then
use the FD Dump Tool to perform the downloading operation.
