To View Details of Log Collections

The Log Collection screen automatically lists each collection currently stored in the Support Tools repository. For each collection, the screen displays:

•Name: The name of the collection.

•Requested: The date/time its request was sent.

•Status: The status of the collection--Ready (complete) or In Progress (incomplete).

To Download Collected Logs

Collected logs can only be viewed after downloading to your local machine; they cannot be viewed from within Support Tools.

To download collected logs:

1.Check the Select check box for the collection whose logs you want to view. You can only download the logs from one collection at a time. If necessary, before proceeding, verify that the collection's status is Ready (complete).

2.Click the View button. Details of the collection, along with the individual log files it contains, are displayed. If the log collection included a merged log, both the individual associated log files and the merged log file are listed.

3.Check the Select check box for the logs you want to download. If you select individual logs from a merged log collection, the merged log will automatically download along with the individual logs you select.
