How to send or upload Mobility log files to Novell's FTP

Resolution

Download dsapp to fetch and upload log files automatically:

  1. See TID 7015282  - How to install dsapp on a Mobility server.
    Note: Once dsapp is loaded, proceed with the steps below.
  2. Select Logs | Upload Logs
  3. Enter y for Grab log files
  4. Provide the SR# for the filename of the upload.
    Note: The name of the compressed file containing relevant log files is displayed:
    /opt/novell/datasync/tools/dsapp/upload/1092834154_12-17-13_100526.tgz
  5. Enter y for Do you want to upload the logs to Novell?
    Note: If connection to ftp fails, the port may be blocked. In this case, email the compressed file noted in Step 4 to a Novell Technical Engineer instead. Otherwise, if the upload was successful, the remote path to the uploaded file is displayed:
    Uploaded to Novell: ftp://ftp.novell.com/incoming/1092834154_12-17-13_100526.tgz
