Where does Analyzer actually store those nar files?

Question

When do a navicli managefiles list, i don't see those nar files, but i do know i can retrieve them, so my question is where are the nar files stored, in memory?

Sorry, the analyzer -archiveretrieve command is only in release 26. In release 24 you still need to use the JAVA commands (java -jar archiveretrieve.jar).

Send me an email - I've put together a PPT about using Analyzer R24/26 and the differences between them and some sample scripts for automating the collection of archives.

when you use the managefiles, it's looking in a directory on the array called c:\dumps - this is where the spcollects and dumps are stored.

Analyzer uses a different directory and managefiles can not access that directory, you need to use the Analyzer commands. The directory on the array is c:\emc\archives - BUT only for release 24 and later.

a few follow up questions,1) what's the difference between 'analyzer -archive' and 'analyzer -archiveretrieve', the command reference guide isn't very clear on that2) i couldn't test the above question out bcuz i couldn't run the following command, am i doing something wrong, 'naviseccli -h analyzer -archiveretrieve', i can do a 'analyzer -archive -file ', but not '-archiveretrieve'
