lsdumps

Use the lsdumps command to display a list of files in a particular dumps directory on one of the nodes in the clustered system (system).

Syntax

lsdumps [ -nohdr ] [ -delim delimiter ] [ -prefix directory_name ] [ { node_name | node_id } ]

Parameters

-nohdr

(Optional) By default, headings are displayed for each column of data in a concise style view, and for each item of data in a detailed style view. The -nohdr parameter suppresses the display of these headings.

Note: If there is no data to be displayed, headings are not displayed.

-delim delimiter

(Optional) By default in a concise view, all columns of data are space-separated. The width of each column is set to the maximum possible width of each item of data. In a detailed view, each item of data has its own row, and if the headers are displayed, then the data is separated from the header by a space. The -delim parameter overrides this behavior. Valid input for the -delim parameter is a one-byte character. If you enter -delim : on the command line, the colon character (:) separates all items of data in a concise view; for example, the spacing of columns does not occur. In a detailed view, the data is separated from its header by the specified delimiter.

-prefix directory_name

(Optional) Specifies the name of the directory to list files for. The default is the /dumps directory. Valid directory names:

/dumps
/dumps/audit
/dumps/cimom
/dumps/easytier
/dumps/elogs
/dumps/feature
/dumps/iostats
/dumps/iotrace
/dumps/mdisk
/home/admin/update
/dumps/drive
/dumps/enclosure

node_name | node_id

(Optional) Specifies the node ID or name to list the available dumps for. If you do not specify a node, the available dumps on the configuration node are listed.

Description

This command displays a list of files detected by a node. You can specify the name of the directory to list files for, and the node ID or name. If you do not specify a directory, the /dumps directory is used.

The files are listed in order of time created, with the oldest files listed first.

Use the lsdumps command with the optional prefix parameter to specify a directory. If you do not specify a directory, /dumps is used as the default. Use the optional node_id_or_name parameter to specify the node to list the available dumps. If you do not specify a node, the available dumps on the configuration node are listed.

The resulting output:

id   filename 
0    svc.config.cron.bak_node1
1    svc.config.backup.xml_node1

3    dump.110584.100118.051550
4    ethernet.aaabbbX-1.trc

An invocation example to list the files in /dumps/easytier on the configuration node

lsdumps -prefix /dumps/easytier/ node_1

The resulting output:
