UCS powershell get-ucstechsupport for fex not working
Answer
3/7/13 12:12 AM
i can use get-ucstechsupport with the following cmds straight from the guide and it works fine.
Get-UcsTechSupport -PathPattern 'C:\${ucs}-techsupp-ucsm.tar' –UcsManager -RemoveFromUcs -TimeoutSec 600

Get-UcsTechSupport -PathPattern 'C:\${ucs}-techsupp-chassis.tar' -RemoveFromUcs -TimeoutSec 600 -ChassisId 1 -CimcId 1
but

if i try to execute the following cmd



Get-UcsTechSupport -PathPattern 'C:\${ucs}-techsupp-fex.tar' -RemoveFromUcs -TimeoutSec 600 -FexId 1

i get warning message below for about 10 secs or less

WARNING: Waiting for the Tech Support file to become available (this may take several minutes).

then i get the following error

Get-UcsTechSupport : V1CL16140-FI:Failed to create the TechSupport file.
At line:1 char:19
+ Get-UcsTechSupport <<<< -ucs $handle -PathPattern 'C:\${ucs}-techsupp-fex.tar' -RemoveFromUcs -TimeoutSec 600 -FexId 1
+ CategoryInfo : NotSpecified: (emoticon [Get-UcsTechSupport], Exception
+ FullyQualifiedErrorId : Cisco.Ucs.Cmdlets.GetUcsTechSupport

i have no idea why. i loaded the lastest ucs powershell files from dec 2012, ver 0.9.11.0 , still no change. again when i run the other 2 cmds it creates the files on my C: drive perfectly fine.

Benton,
How long after the warning do you see the error? When you get this error from PowerTool; Can you try getting Fex tech-support from UCSM GUI? My guess it that fex tech support collection is taking time and the process is timing out. Let me know if this happens consistenly, I will have someone take a look at it.
Thanks,
Vikrant
