NAME

       opacaptureall

       (Chassis  and Host) Captures supporting information for a problem report from all hosts or
       Intel(R) Omni-Path Chassis and uploads to this system.

       For Hosts: When a host opacaptureall  is  performed,  opacapture  is  run  to  create  the
       specified  capture  file within ~root on each host (with the .tgz suffix added as needed).
       The  files  are  uploaded  and  unpacked   into   a   matching   directory   name   within
       upload_dir/hostname/ on the local system. The default file name is hostcapture.

       For  Chassis: When a chassis opacaptureall is performed, opacapture is run on each chassis
       and its output is saved to upload_dir/chassisname/file on the local  system.  The  default
       file name is chassiscapture.

       For  both  host  and  chassis capture, the uploaded captures are combined into a .tgz file
       with the file name specified and the suffix .all.tgz added.

Syntax

       opacaptureall [-C] [-p] [-f  hostfile] [-F  chassisfile] [-h 'hosts']

       [-H 'chassis'] [-t  portsfile] [-d  upload_dir] [-S] [-D  detail_level]

       [ file]

Options

       --help

                 Produces full help text.

       -C

                 Performs capture against chassis. Default is hosts.

       -p

                 Performs capture upload in parallel on all host/chassis.  For  a  host  capture,
                 this only affects the upload phase.

       -f hostfile

                 Specifies the file with hosts in cluster. Default is /etc/opa/hosts file.

       -F chassisfile

                 Specifies  the  file  containing  a  list  of chassis in the cluster. Default is
                 /etc/opa/chassis file.

       -h hosts

                 Specifies the list of hosts on which to perform a capture.

       -H chassis

                 Specifies the list of chassis on which to perform a capture.

       -t portsfile

                 Specifies the file with list of local HFI ports used  to  access  fabric(s)  for
                 switch access. Default is /etc/opa/ports file.

       -d upload_dir

                 Specifies  the directory to upload to. Default is uploads. If not specified, the
                 environment variable UPLOADS_DIR is used. If that is not exported,  the  default
                 ./uploads is used.

       -S

                 Securely prompts for password for administrator on a chassis.

       -D detail_level

                 Specifies  the  level  of detail of the capture passed to host opacapture. (Only
                 used for host captures; ignored for chassis captures.)

                 1 (Local) Obtains local information from each host.

                 2 (Fabric)
                           In addition to Local, also obtains basic fabric information by queries
                           to the SM and fabric error analysis using opareport.

                 3 (Fabric+FDB)
                           In  addition  to  Fabric,  also obtains the Forwarding Database (FDB),
                           which includes the switch forwarding tables from the SM.

                 4 (Analysis)
                           In addition to Fabric+FDB, also  obtains  opaallanalysis  results.  If
                           opaallanalysis has not yet been run, it is run as part of the capture.

       NOTE: Detail levels 2-4 can be used when fabric operational problems occur. If the problem
       is node-specific, detail level 1 should  be  sufficient.  Detail  levels  2-4  require  an
       operational  Intel(R)  Omni-Path  Fabric  Suite  Fabric  Manager.  Typically  your support
       representative requests a given detail level. If a given detail  level  takes  excessively
       long or fails to be gathered, try a lower detail level.

       For detail levels 2-4, the additional information is only gathered on the node running the
       opacaptureall command. The information is gathered  for  every  fabric  specified  in  the
       /etc/opa/ports file.

       file

                 Specifies  the  name  for capture file. The suffix .tgz is appended if it is not
                 specified in the name.

Examples

Host Capture Examples

       opacaptureall

       # Creates a hostcapture directory in upload_dir/hostname/ for each host
       in /etc/opa/hosts file, then creates hostcapture.all.tgz.

       opacaptureall mycapture

       # Creates a mycapture directory in upload_dir/hostname/ for each host
       in /etc/opa/hosts file, then creates mycapture.all.tgz.

       opacaptureall -h 'arwen elrond' 030127capture

       # Gets the list of hosts from arwen elrond file and creates
       030127capture.tgz file.

Chassis Capture Examples

       opacaptureall -C

       # Creates a chassiscapture file in upload_dir/chassisname/ for each
       chassis in /etc/opa/chassis file, then creates chassiscapture.all.tgz.

       opacaptureall -C mycapture

       # Creates a mycapture.tgz file in upload_dir/chassisname/ for each
       chassis in /etc/opa/chassis file, then creates mycapture.all.tgz.

       opacaptureall -C -H 'chassis1 chassis2' 030127capture

       # Captures from chassis1 and chassis2, and creates 030127capture.tgz file.

Environment Variables

       The following environment variables are also used by this command:

       HOSTS

                 List of hosts, used if -h option not supplied.

       CHASSIS

                 List of chassis, used if -C is used and -h option is not supplied.

       HOSTS_FILE

                 File containing a list of hosts, used in the absence of -f and -h.

       CHASSIS_FILE

                 File containing a list of chassis, used in the absence of -F and -H.

       UPLOADS_DIR

                 Directory to upload to, used in the absence of -d.

       FF_MAX_PARALLEL

                 When -p option is used, maximum concurrent operations are performed.

       FF_CHASSIS_LOGIN_METHOD

                 How to log into chassis. Can be Telnet or SSH.

       FF_CHASSIS_ADMIN_PASSWORD

                 Password for administrator on all chassis. Used in absence of -S option.

More Information

       When  performing  opacaptureall  against  hosts,  internally  SSH  is  used.  The  command
       opacaptureall  requires that password-less SSH be set up between the host running Intel(R)
       Omni-Path Fabric Suite  FastFabric  Toolset  and  the  hosts  opacaptureall  is  operating
       against. The opasetupssh command can aid in setting up password-less SSH.

       When  performing  operations  against  chassis,  Intel recommends that you set up SSH keys
       using opasetupssh. If SSH keys are not set  up,  Intel  recommends  that  all  chassis  be
       configured with the same admin password and that you use of the -S option to avoid keeping
       the password in configuration files.

       NOTE: The resulting host capture files can require significant amounts  of  space  on  the
       Intel(R) Omni-Path Fabric Suite FastFabric Toolset host. Actual size varies, but sizes can
       be multiple megabytes per host.  Intel  recommends  that  you  ensure  adequate  space  is
       available on the Intel(R) Omni-Path Fabric Suite FastFabric Toolset system. In many cases,
       it may not be necessary to run opacaptureall against all  hosts  or  chassis;  instead,  a
       representative  subset  may  be  sufficient.  Consult with your support representative for
       further information.
