CHAPTER 7 FEATURES RELATED TO MAINTENANCE AND
FAILURE ANALYSIS
7.1 Log Information Collection Window
7.1.1 Overview
In the log information collection window, you can take the following actions by using a
graphical user interface.
(1) Collecting log data
This function saves the data used for preventive maintenance and post-failure analysis of
the problem. The data is compressed and saved as one file (File name: logsave.dat).
(2) Collecting memory dump files
This function collects the memory dump files saved by the OS. The data is saved as a
compressed file (File name: memory.mcf). At the same time, minimum memory dump
files are also collected.
For information about how to decompress the saved files and the contents of the files,
refer to "7.4 Maintenance Operation Commands" in the HF-BT1000 INSTRUCTION
MANUAL (manual number BT-62-0002).
CPU load increases while memory dump files are being collected. While CPU
load is high, operation of user applications can be disturbed. Make sure that you
do not collect memory dump files using the log information collection window
while the applications for business use are running on this equipment.
7.1.2 Starting the log information collection window
To start the log information collection window, follow the procedure below:
You need to have administrator privileges to use this window. Log on to the computer using
an administrator account and start the window.
1. Click Start.
2. Point to All Programs > RAS Software.
3. Click RAS Maintenance Support.
4. If you see the "User Account Control" window, click Yes.
NOTE
The log information collection window cannot be used by multiple users at the
same time. If you use, for example, user switching to try to start instances of the
log information collection window from multiple consoles, an error may occur. If
an error occurs, close the log information collection window on another console,
and then start the window.
