NAME
mca -- Machine Check Architecture control utility
SYNOPSIS
mca [-d] [-f filename]
DESCRIPTION
The mca utility provides minimal functionality to dump or display MCA records that were saved by the kernel during boot. The default behav-
iour of the mca utility is to display all new MCA records on stdout. When the -d option is given, the records are dumped in binary form.
The default file to which records are dumped is /var/log/mca.log. This can be changed by specifying the -f option. New records are appended
to the dump file.
Previously dumped records can be displayed by giving the name of the dump file with the -f option.
FILES
/var/log/mca.log default dump file
HISTORY
The mca utility appeared in FreeBSD 5.0 for ia64.
BUGS
The development of the mca utility is still a work in progress.
