SetDumpDirectory
This command sets the dump directory for the VMware ESXi hosts only.
Supported By
VMware ESXi
To use the SetDumpDirectory command, you must have a directory (which must be a
“Storage” partition) mapped under /vmfs/volumes where the files will be dumped.
This directory points to the internal hard disk or an external storage area and can also
be mapped using the vSphere Client utility from VMware.
The application checks for the dump directory and creates the dump files in that
location.
Notes

The dump directory applies to all adapters in the server. There is no separate
dump directory for each adapter.

In a remote environment, you can use the SetDumpDirectory command from a
host running any operating system (including Linux, Solaris, and Windows),
but only to a remote host that is running VMware ESXi.
Syntax
hbacmd h= m=cim [u=] [p=]
[n=] SetDumpDirectory

SetRetentionCount
This command specifies the maximum number of diagnostic dump files for the

DumpDirectoryName
The directory under /vmfs/volumes that you created to store
the dump files.
