It is intended to collect information on a Linux on System z system to support the debugging process. You can find the package on a Novell SUSE SLES distribution (I'm not sure if the package is already in a Rad Hat RHEL distribution) Since the tool gets always improved and enhanced an even better source is a download of the latest version from the developerworks page http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/linux/linux390/s390-tools-1.6.1.html dbginfo.sh collects data in the /proc file system and logs and issues z/VM and Linux commands.
