270 IBM Systems Director Management Console: Introduction and Overview
The usage of the pedbg command is as follows:
pedbg [ -d [on | off] | -c | [-c & -q [n]] | -r ] ]
Where:
-d on | off Controls debug tracing by restarting subsystems to start
or stop internal tracing.
-c Collects various logs and core files.
-D data_directory Specifies the directory to which to save collected data. If
this option is not specified, the current home directory is
used.
-q log_option Specifies that logs are to be collected in quiet mode with
the specified log option:
1 Specifies to collect network information (ifcfg, dhcpd,
and arp)
2 Specifies to collect network information and appliance
information only (Java core files, high availability
information, and appliance level).
3 Specifies to collect network, appliance, and embedded
operating system information (processes, disk usage,
and CPU usage).
4 Specifies to collect network, appliance, embedded
operating system, management server information
(Director Logs), and SDMC specific information. This
will capture FFDC and audit logs as well.
-r Removes all log files collected under the directory
specified with the -D option. If the –D option is not
specified, the current home directory is used.
9.4.5 Using pesh
The pesh command can be used to obtain an unrestricted shell on the SDMC and
log on as root. The pesh password has to be obtained from IBM Support and will
be eight characters long with alphabetical characters in lower case. You must
have the UVMID of the SDMC to execute a pesh command. You can log in to the
pesh utility using the predefined pe user only.
Note: The -c option is required when using the –q option.
