The following table includes command options specific to the NDB Cluster program ndb_error_reporter. Additional descriptions follow the table. For options common to most NDB Cluster programs (including ndb_error_reporter), see Options Common to NDB Cluster Programs(1).

Table 21.96. This table describes command-line options for the ndb_error_reporter program

Usage

    ndb_error_reporter path/to/config-file [username] [options]

This utility is intended for use on a management node host, and requires the path to the management host configuration file (usually named config.ini). Optionally, you can supply the name of a user that is able to access the cluster's data nodes using SSH, to copy the data node log files. ndb_error_reporter then includes all of these files in archive that is created in the same directory in which it is run. The archive is named ndb_error_report_YYYYMMDDHHMMSS.tar.bz2, where YYYYMMDDHHMMSS is a datetime string.

ndb_error_reporter also accepts the options listed here:

    • --connection-timeout=timeout
    Command-Line Format | --connection-timeout=timeout
    Permitted Values | Type | integer
     | Default | 0

    Wait this many seconds when trying to connect to nodes before timing out.

    • --dry-scp
    Command-Line Format | --dry-scp
    Permitted Values | Type | boolean
     | Default | TRUE

    Run ndb_error_reporter without using scp from remote hosts. Used for testing only.

    • --fs
    Command-Line Format | --fs
    Permitted Values | Type | boolean
     | Default | FALSE

    Copy the data node file systems to the management host and include them in the archive.

    Because data node file systems can be extremely large, even after being compressed, we ask that you please do not send archives created using this option to Oracle unless you are specifically requested to do so.

    • --skip-nodegroup=nodegroup_id
    Command-Line Format | --connection-timeout=timeout
    Permitted Values | Type | integer
     | Default | 0

    Skip all nodes belong to the node group having the supplied node group ID.
