1. Ensure that the CLUI is installed and set up as described in the CLUI installation documentation,

which is located in the Tools folder on the product DVD.

2. After the CLUI is installed, enter the following command at the command prompt in the working

directory:

Exportdb st MM.DD.YYYY hh:mm:ss -et MM.DD.YYYY hh:mm:ss file myfile-

name.txt -dkc <serial number>

where:

The command.Exportdb

The date and time to begin the export.–st

The last date and time to include in the export.–et

The full path to the file to which the data is to be exported.–file

The serial number of the specific disk controller from which you want to export data.–dkc <#>

The version number of the output type. This is an optional switch.

The current acceptable values for this switch are 010500, 010600, 016000, and

020000.

The default is 010500.

–dver <XXXXXX>

Example 3. Exportdb 1

Exportdb -st 07.06.2001 11:00:00 et 07.06.2001 12:00:00 file 0706export.txt

-dkc 31045

This command retrieves the data collected between 11am and noon, and places the data in a single

text file named 0706export.txt. Using this command, without the -dver switch, ensures that the output

produced is consistent with PA Version 1.05.00.

If you want the output to be consistent with the PA Version 1.06.00 formatting, use the –dver switch,

as shown in Example 4.

Example 4. Exportdb 2

Exportdb -st 07.06.2001 11:00:00 et 07.06.2001 12:00:00 file 0706export.txt

-dkc 31045 -dver 010600

Example 5. Exportdb 3

Exportdb -st 02.23.2006 16:15:00 -et 02.23.2006 17:15:00 -file export.csv

-dkc 10851 -dver 020000 rgutil -hr

This command generates a new file containing the RAID GROUP–specific performance data,

rgutil_filename, along with the following files: dkc_filename, ldev_filename,

port_filename, and clpr_filename.

If you specify the –dver 010600, the output is generated in three separate text files:

(dkc_filename) — DKC-specific performance data

(ldev_filename) — LDEV-specific performance data

(port_filename) — port-specific performance data

The data is exported in a comma-delimited file. The first line contains the column headers for the data

that follows. All other lines contain performance data.
