captureall

(Switch and Host): Captures supporting information for a problem report from
all hosts or SilverStorm IB chassis and uploads to this system
Usage:
captureall [-Cp] [-f hostfile] [-F chassisfile] [-h 'hosts']
[-H 'chassis'] [-d upload_dir] [-S] [file]
-C - perform capture against chassis, default is hosts
-p - perform capture in parallel
[for a host capture this only affects the upload phase]
-f hostfile - file with hosts in cluster, default is
/etc/sysconfig/iba/hosts
-F chassisfile - file with chassis in cluster, default is
/etc/sysconfig/iba/chassis
-h hosts -a list of hosts to perform a capture of
-H chassis - a list of chassis to perform a capture of
-d upload_dir - directory to upload to, default is uploads. If not specified,
the environment variable UPLOADS_DIR will be used. If that is not exported,
the default (./uploads) will be used.
-S - securely prompt for password for administrator on a chassis
file - name for capture file [.tgz will be appended]
When a host captureall is performed, iba_capture will be run to create the
specified capture file within ~root on each host (with the .tgz suffix added).
The files will be uploaded and unpacked into a matching directory name within
upload_dir/hostname/ on the local system. The default file name is
hostcapture.
When a chassis capture all is performed, the chassis capture CLI command
will be run on each chassis and its output will be 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 will be combined into
a tgz file with the file name specified and the suffix .all.tgz added
