Running STM to check out device status

Using the STM character mode, cstm, I've run "info" on all devices - each one has completed successfully except for "Memory".
So when I go to check out the Memory infolog, I get;
"Information Tool Log for MEMORY on path 63 file does not exist"
Any ideas why?
Thanks.

Hi Mike:

I always do it this way:

# echo "selclass qualifier memory;info;wait;infolog"|cstm > /tmp/meminfo

I'd already run that one since I'd seen you recommend it before in another post.
This what I get;
# cat /tmp/meminfo
Running Command File (/usr/sbin/stm/ui/config/.stmrc).

Now, judging by other responses to other posts, it could be the version of STM I'm using, (I know it's not that recent).

Hi Mike:

Interesting. I've got A.24.00 on a K560 running 11.0 and A.19.00 on some 10.20 K and D boxes.

Are you running as root? What's the server kind?

Hi (again) Mike:

Also, since you indicate that memory is at path 63 (confirm this with an 'ioscan'), does this work (?):

# echo "sel path 63;info;wait;infolog"|cstm > /tmp/meminfo

Yes, as root. And it's a D320.
Thanks for the quick responses.

Re: Running STM to check out device status

James - HW Path is confirmed as 63.
And your last suggestion gives me the same result as above.

Re: Running STM to check out device status

Try this,

# cstm
cstm> map # list of devices
cstm> sel path 63
cstm> info
cstm> infolog

save above log and view it.

Re: Running STM to check out device status

It looks like that STM has a problem.
If I were in your shoes, I would get the latest version of STM and give it a try again.
Never say "no" first.

Re: Running STM to check out device status

Ok, guys - I've tried all your suggestions, same result. I suspect my STM install is flaky and needs to be removed and re-done. Just wanted to see if anyone out there suggested anything radically different.
Thanks for your input.
