x25upload(1M)
Requires Optional X.25 Software
NAME
x25upload − dump X.25/9000 interface card memory into a file.
SYNOPSIS
/etc/x25upload -d dev_file -o ofile -v
DESCRIPTION
x25upload dumps an interface card’s memory into a file. This memory dump is in a special format that is not readable by the user but is useful to HP service representatives in diagnosing problems with the X.25/9000 interface card on Series 300/400 and Series 700/800 machines.
Options
/etc/x25upload recognizes the following options:
-d dev_file Specify the device file for the X.25/9000 interface card to be dumped.
-o ofile Specify the name of file to which the card memory dump will be written.
-v Verbose option produces more information in error messages including CAUSE and a corresponding user ACTION.
NOTES
x25upload may be executed by x25init if it detects a problem in the interface card. When x25init executes x25upload, the ofile file is located in directory /etc/x25/dumps. The name of the file is in the form of a date/timestamp (MMMdd.hhmmss) representing month day, hour, minute, and second when the interface card memory dump occurred (for example, /etc/x25/dumps/dec31.115959). Directory /etc/x25/dumps must exist when x25init is executed.
DIAGNOSTICS
Refer to the Troubleshooting X.25/9000 manual for a description of the diagnostics generated by this command.
DEPENDENCIES
The /etc/x25/dumps directory is distributed as part of the X.25/9000 link products.
AUTHOR
x25upload was developed by HP.
NOTES
If the x25init could not or did not schedule x25upload, initialization continues and the previous state of the interface card is lost when the code is downloaded to the card.
The ofile produced by this command is useful to HP field service personnel. You may be asked to supply this file when troubleshooting the X.25/9000 interface card and its software.
FILES
/etc/x25/dumps/ directory to which the interface memory card dump is written when x25init calls x25upload if the interface card is not functioning properly.
