NAME

       ipmctl-dump-debug-log - Dumps encoded firmware debug logs from specified PMem modules and
       optionally decodes to human readable text.

SYNOPSIS

           ipmctl dump [OPTIONS] -destination (file_prefix) [-dict (file)] -debug [TARGETS] [PROPERTIES]

DESCRIPTION

       Dumps encoded firmware debug logs from specified PMem modules and optionally decodes to
       human readable text using a dictionary file.

OPTIONS

       -h, -help
           Displays help for the command.

       -ddrt
           Used to specify DDRT as the desired transport protocol for the current invocation of
           ipmctl.

       -smbus
           Used to specify SMBUS as the desired transport protocol for the current invocation of
           ipmctl.

           Note
           The -ddrt and -smbus options are mutually exclusive and may not be used together.

       -lpmb
           Used to specify large transport payload size for the current invocation of ipmctl.

       -spmb
           Used to specify small transport payload size for the current invocation of ipmctl.

           Note
           The -lpmb and -spmb options are mutually exclusive and may not be used together.

TARGET

       -destination (file_prefix)
           The command will create files that use the given filename as a prefix and append the
           PMem module UID, PMem module handle, debug log source, and the appropriate file type
           (.bin for encoded logs, .txt for decoded logs) onto the end.

           file_prefix_Uid_Handle_logsource.[bin,txt]

       -dict (path)
           Optional file path to the dictionary file. If supplied, the command will create both
           the binary debug log and a text file with decoded log data with the file prefix
           specified by -destination. Firmware dictionaries are lookup tables that match firmware
           codes to their text descriptions. When referenced, the dictionary will be used to
           substitute the provided codes with text, making the logs more human readable.
           Dictionaries are included in every firmware release under the format
           nlog_dict.X.X.X.XXXX.txt.

       -dimm [DimmIDs]
           Dumps the debug logs from the specified PMem modules.

EXAMPLES

       Dumps and decodes the debug log from PMem module 0x0001 and 0x0011 using the dictionary
       file.

           ipmctl dump -destination file_prefix -dict nlog_dict.txt -debug -dimm 0x0001,0x0011

LIMITATIONS

       To successfully execute this command, the specified PMem modules must be manageable by the
       host software.

RETURN DATA

       Dumps the encoded and optionally decoded contents of all 3 firmware debug log sources for
       the specified PMem modules. Output file names are generated based on the -destination
       parameter above.

SAMPLE OUTPUT

           Dumped media FW debug logs to file (file_prefix_8089-A1-1816-00000016_0x0001_media.bin)
           Decoded 456 records to file (file_prefix_8089-A1-1816-00000016_0x0001_media.txt)
           No spi FW debug logs found
