NAME

       ndb_error_reporter - NDB error-reporting utility

SYNOPSIS

       ndb_error_reporter options

DESCRIPTION

       ndb_error_reporter creates an archive from data node and management node log files that can be used to help diagnose bugs or other problems
       with a cluster.	It is highly recommended that you make use of this utility when filing reports of bugs in MySQL Cluster.

       The following table includes command options specific to the MySQL Cluster program ndb_error_reporter. Additional descriptions follow the
       table. For options common to most MySQL Cluster programs (including ndb_error_reporter), see Options Common to MySQL Cluster Programs(1).

       ndb_error_reporter did not support the --help option prior to MySQL Cluster NDB 7.2.14 (Bug #11756666, Bug #48606). The
       --connection-timeout --dry-scp, and --skip-nodegroup options were also added in this release (Bug #16602002).

	       Usage

	   ndb_error_reporter path/to/config-file [username] [options]

       This utility is intended for use on a management node host, and requires the path to the management host configuration file (usually named
       config.ini). Optionally, you can supply the name of a user that is able to access the cluster's data nodes using SSH, to copy the data node
       log files.  ndb_error_reporter then includes all of these files in archive that is created in the same directory in which it is run. The
       archive is named ndb_error_report_YYYYMMDDHHMMSS.tar.bz2, where YYYYMMDDHHMMSS is a datetime string.

       ndb_error_reporter also accepts the options listed here:

       o   --connection-timeout=timeout

	   +--------------------+-------------+----------------+
	   Wait this many seconds when trying to connect to nodes before timing out.

       o   --dry-scp

	   +--------------------+-------------------+
	   |Introduced		| 5.5.34-ndb-7.2.14 |

	   |			| Default | TRUE    |
	   +--------------------+---------+---------+
	   Run ndb_error_reporter without using scp from remote hosts. Used for testing only.

       o   --fs

	   +--------------------+-------------------+
	   |Command-Line Format | --fs		    |
	   +--------------------+-------------------+

	   |			| Default | FALSE   |
	   +--------------------+---------+---------+
	   Copy the data node file systems to the management host and include them in the archive.

	   Because data node file systems can be extremely large, even after being compressed, we ask that you please do not send archives created
	   using this option to Oracle unless you are specifically requested to do so.

       o   --skip-nodegroup=nodegroup_id

	   +--------------------+------------------------------+
