IBM Tivoli Composite Application Manager for Application Diagnostics, Version 7.1.0.1
Gather Script
The Gather Script is a script that collects system information such as CPU and memory data, network status, registry and environment variables. It also collects specific information on the product such as configuration settings, log files and maintenance level. It compresses all the collected information into a single file. When contacting IBM support for assistance, you will be asked to upload the file for further analysis.
The Managing Server Gather Script is located in MS_HOME/bin/MS_Gather_Data.sh. It is invoked using the command:
./MS_Gather_Data.sh pmr-number [appserver_home where VE is installed] [SERVER_NAME], for example:./MS_Gather_Data.sh 70023.900.000On Windows, use the Microsoft Services for Unix shell to start this script.
The result of running the MS gather script is a zipped file, containing the following:
- Most contents of MS_HOME (bin, etc, logs and scripts)
- All logs in the /var directory
- Status of all components (text file for each component)
- Text file of OS information
- List of installed libraries
- server.xml for the specified server
- Netstat output
