The CSMIM-T1 dumps its memory image to a host running load server software when certain software or hardware events occur. Table 5-9shows the LED states during a dump.

Events that trigger CSMIM-T1 dumps are:

Non-recoverable hardware or software errors.

Software fails to reset the CSMIM-T1’s watchdog timer.

Software fails one or more internal consistency checks.

Hardware detects an internal fault.

The CSMIM-T1 sends a dump file to a preferred load dump host. If you do not define this host by specifying an address, the CSMIM-T1 broadcasts a request and dumps to the first host that responds.

The CSMIM-T1 sends a dump to the /usr/spool/erpcd/bfs directory on the dump host. The /usr/spool/erpcd/bfs directory is a default pathname and can be changed. The receiving CSMIM-T1 assigns a unique file name for each device that it receives a dump from but not for each crash dump.
