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
