dumpdev

Purpose

Use the dumpdev command to display device errors logged by Oracle Secure Backup.

Error logs reside on the administrative server in the admin/log/device subdirectory path of the Oracle Secure Backup home.

See Also:

"Device Commands" for related commands

Prerequisites

You must have the right to manage devices and change device state to use the dumpdev command.

Syntax

dumpdev::=

dumpd•ev [ --since/-s date-time ] [ --clear/-c [ --nq ] [ --nd ] ]
{ --dumpfile/-f path ... | devicename ... }

Semantics

--since/-s date-time

Limits the display to those errors that have occurred since date-time. Refer to "date-time" for the date-time placeholder.

--clear/-c

Deletes the error log after it has been displayed. You are prompted before each log is deleted.

--nq

Does not display a confirmation message. If you do not specify this option, then the command displays a confirmation message. The message is described in "Command Execution in Interactive Mode".

--nd

Suppresses the display of the error log. This is useful if you want to clear the error log without displaying it.

--dumpfile/-f path ...

Specifies a path name of the file to be dumped. This option is useful if you have saved a device error log file to a file that dumpdev would not normally find.

devicename ...

Dumps the error log file associated with devicename. Refer to "devicename" for the rules governing device names.

Example

Example 2-32 dumps the error log for a tape drive named 10h_tape1.
