addresses be unique in the network. The stack master will distribute the
addresses to the stack members for use on the out-of-band port only during
crash dump transfer. In addition, for the purposes of transferring the core file
to the server, a unique MAC address is assigned to the stack unit.
Example
This example enables core dumps to a TFTP server 10.27.9.1 reachable over
the out-of-band port. The core file is written to the “dumps” directory and
the name includes the host name of the switch and the switch TOD.
console(config)#exception dump tftp-server 10.27.9.1 file-path dumps
console(config)#exception core-file Core hostname time-stamp
console(config)#exception protocol tftp
exception protocol
Use the exception protocol command as directed by Dell Networking support
to enable full core dumps. Use the no form of the command to disable full
core dumps.
