7.2 The DLMgetras Utility for Collecting HDLM Error Information

This utility collects information that is needed to analyze HDLM errors that have

occurred: information such as error logs, integrated trace files, trace files, definition

files, and OS information. The collected information is archived in a file and saved to

a folder of your choosing.
Whenever the host is restarted, some of the information that is collected by the

DLMgetras

utility will be cleared. As a result, whenever an error occurs, immediately

execute this utility to avoid losing any valuable information.
This utility is in the following locations:
HDLM-installation-folder

\bin

and

drive-where-the-installation-DVD-has-been-inserted

:\HDLM_Windows\DLMTools

#

#

Use this utility only in an environment where the version of the installed HDLM

and the version on the DVD are the same.
