    EMC Grab Utility is available for Microsoft Windows NT, SUN Solaris, HP-UX, IBM AIX, Linux and Compaq Tru64.

    You can download the appropriate Grab Utility from Powerlink using the following navigation -

    Home > Support > Product and Diagnostic Tools > Grab Utilities

    You may also download the same from ftp site -

    ftp.emc.com/pub/emcgrab, then go to the appropriate platform

    However, for vmware hosts - you can run vm-support command to collect logs for escalation to Level 2 Technical Support.

    Run the VMware support script -

    For ESX Servier 2.X they are located here: /usr/lib/vmware/vm-support.


    For ESX Servier 3.X they are located here: /usr/bin/vm-support

    CD to the directory and run: "vm-support". This creates a Tar-zipped file

    Refer to Primus solution - emc77366 for more details.

    Hope this helps.
    Thanks,
