Log Bundle Naming

STA appends log information to a user-assigned prefix name to ensure each bundle has a unique name.

The filename is:

user-assigned_prefix--logtype_component_type-serial_number_timestamp.zip

Where:

  • user-assigned_prefix — maximum 210 alphanumeric characters or underscores. Multiple consecutive underscores are not valid. Spaces are automatically replaced with underscores. Cannot begin with AUX, CON, NUL, or PRN.
  • log_type — identifies the type of log bundle. For example, CAP, STA_DBSnapshot.
  • component_type— identifies the specific type of component, such as ROTATIONAL_CAP, HP_LTO5.
  • identifier—unique serial number of the hardware component. Does not apply to RDA log bundles.
  • timestamp—date and time when the log bundle was created.

For example:

NSDB--STA_DBSnapshot-14.4.2017.53.03.26.zip
NSCAP--Cap_CAP-516000100437+1643197981+4_-07.4.2017.51.08.09.zip
