4.15 prterrlog (1M)

Name

prterrlog - SCF error log display command

Format

/usr/sbin/FJSVmadm/prterrlog [-i] [-e error_code] [-f file[-m model]] [-g] [-r] [-s] [-t type ] [-x] [-A yyyymmdd[HHMM]] [-B yyyymmdd[HHMM]] [ -S HHMM] [-E HHMM]

Function

The prterrlog command displays the SCF error log of hardware errors detected by the main unit.

Option

The options are:

-i

Displays the error log without updating the SCF error log information.

-e error_code

Displays the record of the specified error_code.
For error_code, specify a hexadecimal number such as 0x06040001.
To specify multiple error codes, write them in the form [-e error_code -e error_code].

-f file

Displays the specified file as an SCF error log file.
Do not update the SCF error log file before you display it.

-m model

Specify the model code of the host.
This option is useful for editing an SCF error log recorded on a different main unit. If this option is not specified, the system edits the log according to the model of the main unit and displays it.

-g

The time at which the log is stored in GMT is displayed.

-r

Information is displayed in reverse chronological order.

-s

Displays the following information in the one-line-one-event form.

• Event number
• Type
• Time when the log was stored.
• Error code or component

-t type

The following table shows the log types that can be specified.

type	Displayed item
E	Device or environment error detected by SCF.
H	Watchdog monitoring error
R	Error detected by OBP/POST

-x

Dump data is displayed in hexadecimal form.

-A yyyymmdd[HHMM]

Records logged since the date specified in yyyymmdd are displayed.
In cases where HHMM is specified, records logged since the time specified in HHMM of the day specified in yyyymmdd are displayed.

-B yyyymmdd[HHMM]

Records logged prior to the date specified in yyyymmdd are displayed.
In cases where HHMM is specified, records logged prior to the time specified in HHMM of the day specified in yyyymmdd are displayed.

-S HHMM

Displays the records logged from the time specified in HHMM through 23:59.
If -E is specified, records logged from the time specified with -S until the time specified with -E are displayed.

-E HHMM

Records logged from 00:00 until the time specified in HHMM are displayed.
