About this task
A performance dump of the system is a collection of data from a service processor after a failure of the system, an external reset of the system, or a manual request. You can initiate the performance dump of the system to collect and store the hardware performance data in the format of a hardware unit dump. The information is stored in a new dump file when the performance dump of the system is initiated. The performance dump of the system can be initiated during the system power-on (service processor runtime) state only.
