GOAL
To discuss this information further with Oracle experts and industry peers, we encourage you to review, join or
start a discussion in the My Oracle Support Community - Sun x86 Systems
How to run an ILOM Snapshot on a Sun/Oracle X86 System from either the web GUI interface or from the CLI
prompt.
This document shows enough information (including screenshots) to quickly collect a snapshot. It shows both ILOM
2.x and 3.x.
For additional detail in ILOM 3.x and later, see the document listed under the reference section.
SOLUTION
To collect SP data using the Snapshot data collector utility, you may need the Admin (a) role enabled.

smaller sub-section of log files.
Browser
Click Run.
In the dialog box, specify the directory to which to save the file and the file name.

Note:
ILOM 1.x firmware does not have snapshot data collector.
ILOM 2.x firmware may or may not have snapshot data collector enabled depending on the platform. If your
platform does have it enabled, please note the data it collects is quite limited and the snapshot may not be too
helpful for support.
