HP (Hewlett-Packard) 331404-008 Switch User Manual


 
Maintenance Menu 169
The Miscellaneous Debug Menu displays trace buffer information about events that can be helpful in understanding
GbE2 Interconnect Switch operation. You can view the following information using the Debug Menu:
Events traced by the management processor (MP)
Events traced to a buffer area when a reset occurs
If the GbE2 Interconnect Switch resets for any reason, the management processor (MP) trace buffer is saved into the
snap trace buffer area. The output from these commands can be interpreted by HP technical support.
The following table describes the Miscellaneous Debug Menu options:
Table 197 Miscellaneous Debug Menu options
Command Usage
tbuf Displays the management processor trace buffer. Header information similar to the following is
shown:
MP trace buffer at 13:28:15 Fri May 25, 2002; mask: 0x2ffdf748
The buffer information is displayed after the header.
snap Displays the management processor snap (or post-mortem) trace buffer. This buffer contains
information traced at the time that a reset occurred.
clrcfg Deletes all flash configuration blocks. The next time the GbE2 Interconnect Switch is rebooted,
it returns to the factory default settings.
