This command uses TFTP, USB, or Xmodem to copy the Crash Data content to a destination device. You can copy individual slot information or the management module’s switch information. If you do not specify either, the command defaults to the management function’s data.

Syntax: copy crash-data [master>] tftp <ip-address> <filename>

copy crash-data [mm>] usb <filename>

copy crash-data [mm>] xmodem

where: mm Retrieves crash log or crash data from the switch’s chassis processor. When “mm” is specified, crash files from both management modules are copied.

These commands copy the crash data content to a remote host, attached USB device, or to a serially connected PC or UNIX workstation. You can copy the management module (mm) switch information. If you do not specify either, the command defaults to the mm data.

For example, to copy the switch’s crash data to a file in a PC:

At this point, press [Enter] and start the Xmodem command sequence in your terminal emulator.
