5.3. About Support Log Gather
Support Log Gather Operator builds on the functionality of the traditional must-gather tool to automate the collection of debugging data. It streamlines troubleshooting by packaging the collected information into a single .tar file and automatically uploading it to the specified Red Hat Support case.
Support Log Gather is a Technology Preview feature only. Technology Preview features are not supported with Red Hat production service level agreements (SLAs) and might not be functionally complete. Red Hat does not recommend using them in production. These features provide early access to upcoming product features, enabling customers to test functionality and provide feedback during the development process.
For more information about the support scope of Red Hat Technology Preview features, see Technology Preview Features Support Scope.
The key features of Support Log Gather include the following:
- No administrator privileges required: Enables you to collect and upload logs without needing elevated permissions, making it easier for non-administrators to gather data securely.
- Simplified log collection: Collects debugging data from the cluster, such as resource definitions and service logs.
-
Configurable data upload: Provides configuration options to either automatically upload the
.tarfile to a support case, or store it locally for manual upload.
