Collecting Error Information

You need to collect HDLM error information both from the ESXi host and from

remote management clients. Note that, if syslog transfer is set up in the ESXi

host, you need to collect syslog from the transfer destination.

Collecting from the ESXi host

You can collect ESXi host log information by either of the following

methods:

¢

Using a vSphere client, export the system logs.
Use the default setting for specifying the sources to be collected.

¢

Log in to the ESXi host and execute the vm-support command to

collect the system logs.

Also, if a kernel panic occurs on the ESXi host, collect a core dump for

investigation.

Collecting from the remote management client

HDLM provides the utility for collecting HDLM error information

(DLMgetras).
By using the DLMgetras utility, you can simultaneously collect all the

information required for analyzing errors: information such as integrated

trace files, definition files, and information on the OS. You can use the

collected information for when you contact your HDLM vendor or

maintenance company.

For details on the DLMgetras utility, see

HDLM Error Information on page 7-2
