Disable Dumping
The multiaccess enclosure can be set up to dump the contents of memory to
permanent storage in the unlikely event of a complete system failure. If dumping is
enabled, using this selection will cause the multiaccess enclosure
not to dump to
disk.
To disable dumping, type talk 6 or t 6 at the (* prompt), press Enter, and then type
disable dump memory or dis dump at the
Config
>
prompt. You will see the
message:
System memory dump function disabled successfully.
Enable Dumping
This command enables the dumping of memory without intervention from anyone in
the event that the multiaccess enclosure has a catastrophic error. The multiaccess
enclosure will dump memory onto the hard disk. Once a successful dump has
been taken, the multiaccess enclosure attempts to restart. Depending upon the
failure of the multiaccess enclosure, it cannot always restart. In this case, you
should restart it manually and call a service person who will dial into the
multiaccess enclosure to determine the nature and the causes of the failure.
Before you can enable dumping, you must first enable system rebooting.
Finally, to enable dumping, type t 6 at the (* prompt), press Enter, and then type
enable reboot-system
enable dump-memory
You will see the message:
System memory function enabled successfully
The default state is to have dumping enabled.
Erase Files
The multiaccess enclosure has a DOS file system structure with user access files in
the /sys0 and /sys1 banks. The contents of these banks are the operational
software load images and the configuration files. Note that the following rules apply
to erasing files from the multiaccess enclosure:
¹
Image files that are not ACTIVE can be overwritten anytime
¹
ACTIVE image files
cannot be erased
¹
ACTIVE configuration files
cannot be erased
