To help troubleshoot a problem, you can retrieve log files and system data (including configuration data) for your StorageGRID system. This information is retrieved using the Grid Manager.
You can use the Grid Manager to gather log files, system data, and configuration data from any grid node for the time period that you select. Data is collected and archived in a .tar.gz file that you can then download to your local computer.
Because application log files can be very large, the destination directory where you download the archived log files must have at least 1 GB of free space.
You can re-download the log file archive package later if you need to.
Optionally, you can click Delete to remove it and free up disk space, though there is no requirement to do so. The current log file archive package is automatically removed the next time you collect log files.
