fmdump -m [-M][-t time][-T time]

DESCRIPTION The fmdump utility displays the contents of any of the logs associated with the Fault
Manager (fault manager daemon). The Fault Manager runs in the background on
each server. It records, in the error log, faults detected by the XSCF, and initiates
proactive self-healing activities, such as disabling faulty components.
The Fault Manager maintains two sets of logs for use by administrators and service
personnel:
Each problem recorded in the fault log is identified by:
The time of its diagnosis
A Universal Unique Identifier (UUID) that can be used to uniquely identify this
particular problem across any set of systems
A message identifier (MSG-ID) that can be used to access a corresponding
knowledge article located at the specified website.
If a problem requires action by a human administrator or service technician or
affects system behavior, the Fault Manager also issues a human-readable message.
This message provides a summary of the problem and a reference to the knowledge
article on the specified website.
You can use the -v and -V options to expand the display from a single-line
summary to increased levels of detail for each event recorded in the log. You can
also use the -M option to display only one screen at a time. The -c, -t, -T,and-u
options can be used to filter the output by selecting only those events that match
the specified class, range of times, or uuid. If more than one filter option is present
on the command line, the options combine to display only those events that are
selected by the logical AND of the options. If more than one instance of the same
Error log Records error telemetry, the symptoms of problems detected by
the system
Fault log Records fault diagnosis information; the problems believed to
explain these symptoms. By default, fmdump displays the
contents of the fault log, which records the result of each
diagnosis made by the fault manager or one of its component
modules.
