NAME
     cxfsdump - CXFS configuration gathering tool

SYNOPSIS
     cxfsdump


DESCRIPTION
     cxfsdump is a command-line tool used to gather configuration information
     in a CXFS cluster.  It currently supports IRIX,Solaris and Windows nodes.
     The tool is started from an IRIX CXFS Administration node in the cluster
     and then it propogates itself to the other nodes.The output of the tool
     can be collected from the IRIX CXFS Administration node from which it was
     started.


     Due to the self propogatory nature of the tool,it needs rsh,rcp access
     across all nodes in the cluster.The non-availability of these(rsh,rcp) on
     Windows nodes forces the tool to be run in a stand-alone mode on Windows
     nodes.

     Root/Super User privileges are needed to run cxfsdump.


     cxfsdump needs Perl to run.


NOTES
     cxfsdump can be run from an IRIX node with an optional parameter
     specifying the CXFS cluster name.


     1) Command line execution in IRIX :

          # ./cxfsdump

          # ./cxfsdump cxfs-cluster-name


     2) Command line execution in Windows :

          c:\>perl cxfsdump.pl

          IMPORTANT:

          The Win32::TieRegistry module is needed to run cxfsdump under
          Windows.  This module is shipped along with the ActiveState perl
          distribution for Windows.It can also be downloaded separately from
          CPAN.
