Troubleshooting Management Servers

You need to run a kernel debug for an extended period because the issue occurs only once or twice each week. You therefore need to add a timestamp to the kernel debug and write its output to a file, but you cannot risk consuming all remaining disk space and have only 10 GB available to save the debug output. What is the correct syntax for this?

Explanation

fw ctl kdebug -T -f -o <file> -m <count> -s <size> writes continuous, timestamped kernel-debug output into cyclic files. -m 10 creates ten cyclic files and -s 1000000 limits each to 1,000,000 KB, bounding storage at approximately 10 GB. Check Point documents -T for timestamps and -o together with -m and -s for cyclic output files.
