Collect Log Files with mxcollect
The mxcollect utility collects error event logs that can be useful for
diagnosing technical issues with HP Clustered File System. When you
report a problem to HP Support, you may be asked to run the mxcollect
utility and then send the logs to HP Support for analysis.
Create an FTP Account
An FTP server is available to help you submit log files. To obtain an FTP
account, contact HP Support.
Run mxcollect
You will need to run the mxcollect utility on each node. The utility is
located in the %ProgramFiles%\Hewlett-Packard\HP Clustered File
System\tools folder. Go to this location and double-click the file
mxcollect.exe.
