Dumps encoded firmware debug logs from specified PMem modules and optionally
decodes to human readable text using a dictionary file.

.SH "TARGET"
.sp
\-destination (file_prefix)
.RS 4
The command will create files that use the given filename as a prefix
and append the PMem module UID, PMem module handle, debug log source, and the appropriate
file type (.bin for encoded logs, .txt for decoded logs) onto the end.
.RE
.sp
.if n .RS 4

.sp
\-dict (path)
.RS 4
Optional file path to the dictionary file. If supplied, the command will
create both the binary debug log and a text file with decoded log data with
the file prefix specified by \-destination. Firmware dictionaries are lookup tables
that match firmware codes to their text descriptions. When referenced, the dictionary
will be used to substitute the provided codes with text, making the logs more human
readable. Dictionaries are included in every firmware release under the format
nlog_dict.X.X.X.XXXX.txt.
.RE
.sp
\-dimm [DimmIDs]
.RS 4
Dumps the debug logs from the specified PMem modules.
.RE
.SH "EXAMPLES"
.sp
Dumps and decodes the debug log from PMem module 0x0001 and 0x0011 using the
dictionary file.
.sp
.if n .RS 4

.if n .RE
.SH "LIMITATIONS"
.sp
To successfully execute this command, the specified PMem modules must be manageable
by the host software.
.SH "RETURN DATA"
.sp
Dumps the encoded and optionally decoded contents of all 3 firmware debug log
sources for the specified PMem modules. Output file names are generated based on the
\-destination parameter above.
.SH "SAMPLE OUTPUT"
