8.4 Reviewing Panic Snapshots
Refer to the Panic Snapshots screen for an overview of the panic files available. Typically, panic files refer
to switch events interpreted as critical conditions (and thus requiring prompt attention). Use the information
displayed within the screen to make informed decisions whether a target file should be discarded or
transferred to a secure location for permanent archive.
To review the current panic snapshots on the switch:
1. Select Diagnostics > Panic Snapshots from the main menu.
2. Refer to the following table headings within the Panic Snapshots screen:
Name Displays the title of the panic file. Panic files are named n.panic where n is in the
range 0-9. 0 is always the oldest saved panic file and the highest number is the
most recent. If the system experiences a panic, there are ten existing panics, the
oldest is deleted and the remaining nine are renamed so the newest can be saved
as 9.
