To retrieve RSL files stored by Wavence devices using the NFM-P

Prerequisites

RSL file retrieval is supported on MSS-E/HE/XE, UBT-NIM, and MSS-4/8 nodes release Wavence 23A or later, and UBT-SA nodes release Wavence 25 or later.

Before you can retrieve RSL files from Wavence device, a File Retrieval Policy must be configured for the device. See To assign a file retrieval policy to a Wavence device in the NFM-P for information about assigning a policy, and To create or modify a file retrieval policy in the NFM-P for information about configuring a policy.

Note: Do not perform a file retrieval while a WebCT password reset is in progress.

Steps
 
1 

Choose Administration→NE Maintenance→File Retrieval from the NFM-P main menu. The File Retrieval form opens.


2 

Select the RSL file retrieval policy configured for the device and click Properties.


3 

Confirm the parameters in the SFTP Settings panel. For RSL file retrieval from MSS-E/HE/XE and UBT-NIM nodes the host key fingerprint must be ED25519, for CoreEvo nodes it must be ECDSA, and for UBT-SA nodes it must be RSA.


4 

Click on the File Retrieval Status tab. The supported Wavence devices that are managed by NFM-P are listed.


5 

Choose a device and click Retrieve Logs. The Log Retrieval State column displays the status of log retrieval. The RSL files are copied from the SFTP server to the NFM-P server. Retrieved RSL files are displayed in the Logs tab.

Note: RSL files are stored on the NFM-P in /opt/nsp/nfmp/nelogs/Wavence/. Folders are created for each nodeID from which files were retrieved, containing a RSLFiles folder where the RSL files are located.
