Creating Diagnostic Dumps
The diagnostic dump feature enables you to create a “dump” file for a selected HBA. Dump files contain
various information such as firmware version, driver version and so on, that is particularly useful when
troubleshooting an HBA.
To start a diagnostic dump:
1. From the discovery-tree, select an HBA whose diagnostic information you wish to dump.
2. Select the Diagnostics tab and click Diagnostic Dump. The Diagnostic Dump dialog box
appears. You can specify how many files you want to save using the Files Retained counter.
Click Delete Existing Dump Files if you wish to remove existing dump files from your system.

3. Click Start Dump.
Displaying PCI Registers and Wakeup Information
A PCI Register dump for the selected HBA appears in the lower left panel of the Diagnostics tab.
Wakeup information for the selected HBA appears in the lower right panel of the Diagnostics tab. The
information is read-only and is depicted below:
