DESCRIPTION

Modes of Operation

The following is a brief overview of the modes of operation for the snapshot
command.

The first mode is SSH Target Mode. The data collector is run in this mode when it is
invoked with the -t or -T option. In this mode, the data collector opens an SSH
connection from the Service Processor to the specified target (after appropriate
authentication) and sends the zip data archive through the SSH connection to the
target host. The user must create the target directory on the remote host, snapshot
does not create the target directory. The transmission encryption in this mode is
provided by SSH.

The second mode is USB Device Mode. The data collector is run in this mode when
it is invoked with the -d flag. In this mode, the data collector’s output (which is the
zip archive) is saved in a file on the USB device. The USB device should be
formatted using the FAT32 file system. As in SSH Target mode, you can use the -e
option to encrypt the zip file in this mode. However, no transmission encryption
(such as SSH) occurs in this mode, since the data stays local to the Service
Processor.
