To collect SPs logs you can use navicli from your local machine as follows-

# navicli h 10.31.160.31 spcollect

Where h is to specify IP of SPA/B

Now list all the files on that SP.

# navicli h 10.31.160.31 managefiles list

Now retrieve the SP log file (serial no._time stamp_cficl_data.zip) from SP toyour local machine

# navicli h 10.31.160.31 managefiles retrieve file File_Name
