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 entering

y

instructs the

DLMgetras

utility to overwrite the existing files; 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
