Create a Snapshot of the Switch State (Oracle ILOM Web)

The snapshot utility collects log files, executes various commands and collects their output, and sends the data collected to a user-defined location as a .zip file. The data set selected determines what data is to be included in the snapshot.

The snapshot describes the state of the switch at a particular moment in time. You can use this information for diagnosing system problems.

  1. Choose ILOM Administration→Maintenance, and click the Snapshot tab.
  2. Select the data set from the Data Set drop-down menu.

    See the table in Snapshot Dataset Information (Oracle ILOM Web).

  3. If you chose the Custom data set, check the data that you want to include in the snapshot.

    Note -  If you choose the Full data set, be aware that the switch might be reset.
  4. If you want only log files, select the Collect Only Log Files From Data Set checkbox.
  5. If you want security applied to the snapshot file, select the Encrypt Output File checkbox.
  6. Select the transfer protocol from the Transfer Method drop-down menu.
  7. Type the host IP address or host name, file path, user name, and password into the respective fields.
  8. Click Run.
