Generating System Diagnostics
How to Generate System Diagnostics#
VergeOS support may request that a system administrator generate a system diagnostics file for detailed logs from the platform. The diagnostic file will include detailed logs from all nodes in a system and package it into a single compressed file which can easily be then uploaded to support automatically or downloaded to be sent via email or a 3rd party file-sharing service.
Here are the steps to create and download a System Diagnostics file. 1. Log in to the parent/root environment. The diagnostics file needs to be generated at the Parent environment, rather than a Tenant. 1. From the top menu, select System > Dashboard 1. On the System dashboard, in the left navigation menu, click System Diagnostics 1. From the System Diagnostics, in the left navigation menu, click New Report**
- Once inside the New System Diagnostic Report, complete the Name, Description, and check the "Send diagnostic information to VergeOS support, then click Submit at the bottom. This will generate a compressed file of system logs.
- Wait while the compressed log file is built. The status column will show the status as 'Building" then on to 'Sending to Support'.
- When it is finished, the status will change to 'Sent to Support'.
- When sending completes, you can also download the file to your local computer.
