debug

Required Command-Line Mode = Configure

Use the debug command to generate a system dump file for use with Gigamon Technical Support staff. You can generate the system dump files for all the nodes that are part of a cluster by logging into the leader leader in clustering node relationship (formerly master). However, to download the system dump file for a node, you must log into the respective node.

The debug command has the following syntax:

debug generate dump

box-id <box-id>

In response, the system will generate an encrypted sysdump file and show you the filename for the leader in a cluster. For example:

Generated dump sysdump-newHD-20150105-215155.tgz.gpg

Note:  To view the sysdump files generated for the member node follower in clustering node relationship (formerly slave or non-master)s in a cluster, run the # show file debug-dump box-id <box-id> command.
