femDump femDump Collects limited debug information to a remote directory through FTP, SFTP, or SCP. This command is a minimal version of supportsave command. Synopsis femdump [-u user_name -p password -h host_ip -d remote_dir -l protocol] Description Use this command to collect limited debug information to a remote directory through FTP or SCP. This command is a minimal version of a supportsave command. The files generated by this command are compressed before being sent off the switch. The core files and panic dumps remain on the switch after the command is run. The FFDC data are removed after the command has finished. If there are blade processor (BP) blades installed on the switch, a support file (a tar.gz file) is generated from each slot. This command accepts IPv4 and IPv6 addresses. If the configured IP address is in IPv6 format, the RAS auto-file transfer and event notification to syslog will not work in the case where the Fabric OS version is downgraded. You must reconfigure auto-file transfer and syslog with IPv4 IP addresses. In a Virtual Fabric environment, the command saves all chassis-based information and iterates through the defined switch-based information for all logical switches. Chassis permissions are required to execute this command. Note that quotes should be used around path entries to ensure proper handling of special shell characters. Notes The execution of this command is subject to Virtual Fabric restrictions that may be in place. Refer to "Using Fabric OS Commands" and "Command Availability" for details. If you use anonymous FTP to run femDump on a chassis with multiple AP blades, configure the FTP Windows server to allow unlimited anonymous users.
