How do I generate an Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) dump using a Smarts Network Protocol Manager (Smarts NPM) domain?
How do I do an instrumentation dump for OSPF in Smarts NPM?




To do an OSPF dump using a Smarts NPM domain, do the following:
  1. Open a command prompt on the Smarts NPM and navigate to the NPM/smarts/bin directory
  2. Run the following command (see Note statement):

    sm_adapter --output=LOG_FILE --server<OSPF-INCHARGE-SERVER> utils/ic_dumpinst_ospf.asl

    (where OSPF-INCHARGE-SERVER is the name of the OSPF INCHARGE Server and LOG_FILE is the name of the log file to dump instrumentation objects)

     
  3. After the above command is run, the log file will be located in the BASEDIR/smarts/local/log directory


Additional Information

The ic_dumpinst_ospf.asl file should be in the <Basedir NPM> smarts/rules/utils directory. This file is not available in Smarts NPM in versions earlier than 8.1.x
