Subject: FFDC tool?
Date: Thu, 27 Jul 2017 10:23:31 +1000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <87bmo6sp6k.fsf@linux.vnet.ibm.com> (raw)
So, I spotted https://gerrit.openbmc-project.xyz/#/c/4881/ (well, an
associated internal bug report), and it appears there is a FFDC tool in
existence?
(FFDC seems like a bit of an IBM specific term, First Failure Data
Capture - i.e. gather all the things when something goes wrong and
attach it to a bug report)
I'm wondering where I missed any announce/info on its availability and
use?
Perhaps an idea would be to put it in the motd and/or /etc/issue(.net)
so that it's prominently documented (we do this for petitboot for
OpenPOWER host firmware, and I think that helps)?
