The following is an example of the coding in the file that defines the

information to be collected.

Figure 7-1 Coding Example of a File that Defines the Information to

be Collected

Rules for coding a file that defines the information to be collected

•

Use an absolute path to specify a directory or file whose

information is to be collected. If you use a relative path to specify

a directory or file, that directory or file will be searched for only

within the directory in which the DLMgetras utility was executed,

and the files found will be collected.

•

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 the hash mark (#) are handled as comment

lines.

•

If the 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 DLMgetras first stores error information in the specified output

directory 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
