NAME

cam_report − Reports SCSI/CAM events from the binary event log

SYNOPSIS

/usr/field/cam_report [-h] [-f file] [-H] [-R]

DESCRIPTION

The cam_report utility provides a detailed SCSI/CAM event report.  The SCSI/CAM subsystem records software data structures and hardware device information in the binary event log. This data can be informational or it can describe recoverable or fatal errors. 

The cam_report utility supplements the uerf utility. The cam_report utility has supplemental knowlwdge of SCSI/CAM events recorded in the binary event log. The cam_report utility provides additional capabilites for debugging the SCSI/CAM subsystem. 

The cam_report utility reads the binary event log file given for the ∗.∗ specifier in the /etc/binlog.conf file. A detailed report of SCSI/CAM events is displayed. Use the -f option to specify alternate binary event log files. By default, the file is read from beginning to end, reporting the earliest events first. Use the -R option to report the latest events first. 

The uerf command, using the -r 199 and -o full options, displays brief information about SCSI/CAM events.  Use the cam_report utility’s -H option to display equivalent information. 

Refer to the %%CamGd%% for descriptions of the SCSI/CAM software data structures.  Refer to the applicable hardware device technical manual for descriptions of the hardware data displayed. 

FLAGS

-hDisplays a brief help message. 

-fSpecifies an alternate binary event log file to use. 

-HReports only a subset of the total event information, that which is useful for diagnosing hardware related problems. 

-RReads the binary event log file in reverse.  This reports the latest events first.
