2 supportSave -d remote_dir -R -l ftp|scp -U Specifies the remote directory to which the file is to be transferred. When saving to a USB device, the predefined /support directory must be used. Removes all core files on the CP and BP. This option is exclusive with all other options. Specifies the transfer protocol as either FTP or SCP. If you plan to use secure copy (SCP) to transfer files, it is important to test the supportSave command prior to its use with various scp mode services. Because the supportSave command makes several access requests to copy files, it is important that the scp mode service be configured so that passwords are not required for each attempted transfer by the supportSave command. Failure to pretest and properly configure the service could result in significant delays in obtaining transferred output from the supportSave command. When using secure copy (SCP), supportSave may create a directory specified by the -d option if it does not already exist and the parent directory has the appropriate permissions. Use of FTP requires the directory to exist on the remote server. Saves support data to an attached USB device. When using this option, a target directory must be specified with the -d option. Examples To save RASLOG, TRACE, supportShow, and other support information to an FTP server in interactive mode: switch:admin> supportsave This command will collect RASLOG, TRACE, supportShow, core file, FFDC data and other support information and then transfer them to a FTP/SCP server or a USB device. This operation can take several minutes. NOTE: supportSave will transfer existing trace dump file first, then automatically generate and transfer latest one. There will be two trace dump files transfered after this command. OK to proceed?
