Create Support command
Assembles all log files and switch memory data into a core dump file (dump_support.tgz
zip) and prompts you to send it to a remote host. This file is useful to technical support
personnel for troubleshooting switch problems. Use this command when directed by your HP
Authorized Service Provider. The command prompts for the IP address of the remote host, an
account name and password on the remote host, and a pathname for an existing folder on the
remote host.
