 show alarms [reverse]
Asynchronous events (also referred to as AENs or alarms) are originated by 
firmware and captured by their respective device drivers. These events reflect 
warning, debugging, and/or informative messages for the end user. These 
events are kept in a finite queue inside the kernel, awaiting extraction by user 
space programs such as CLI and/or 3DM. 
The /cx show alarms command displays all available alarms on a given 
controller. The default is to display the most recent alarm or AEN message 
first. The user can also use the [reverse] attribute to display the most recent 
alarm or AEN message last. 
Alarms generated on 7000/8000 controllers do not have dates, so you will see 
a '-'  in the Date column. This means that it is not applicable. In addition, 
alarm messages on 7000/8000 controllers contain the severity in the message 
text, so the Severity column also shows a '-'.
Typical output looks like:
 tw_cli> /c1 show alarms reverse
 Ctl Date                                              Severity Message

 show diag
This command extracts controller diagnostics suitable for technical support 
usage. Note that some characters might not be printable or rendered correctly 
(human readable). It is recommended to save the output from this command to 
a file, where it can be communicated to technical support or further studied 
with Linux utilities such as od(1).
