Support bundle of integrated OVA should collect Admiral logs

[angel-ivanov]

Support bundle should collect Admiral container(vic-admiral) logs.
Also it might be useful if logs of the docker which is running in the integrated OVA, to be collected too for more debugging information.

[andrewtchin]

Is this something I need to do or will this be functionality in Admiral?

[angel-ivanov]

This is not part of Admiral functionality. I am not aware how support bundle is created, but it should collect Admiral's container logs.

[bradmeiseles]

Let's make sure the Harbor logs and the logs for new components that are introduced in 1.2 are also collected as part of the support bundle.

[andrewtchin]

Workaround is to manually collect the logs off of Admiral

This needs to be prioritized for 1.3 or beyond? @karthik-narayan

Added a pretty pitiful release note in https://github.com/vmware/vic-product/releases/tag/v1.2.0.

@angel-ivanov and @andrewtchin how do we a) download the OVA support bundle in the first place and b) download the Admiral logs manually?

This really needs to go in the core doc too: #318

Here's the release note entry:

---

• vSphere Integrated Containers appliance support bundle does not include Management Portal logs. #225
  Workaround: Download the Management Portal logs manually.

Repurposing this story to cover creating the support bundle and making sure all logs are under /var/log/vmware
vmware/vic#4680 and vmware/vic#5265 can probably also be closed when this is resolved
We need to get the admiral logs off of the container

@andrewtchin is the release note above OK? Thanks!

[andrewtchin]

@stuclem release note lgtm

[stuclem]

Thanks @andrewtchin !

[andrewtchin]

Closing this as we have an alternative method for gathering all appliance state information #1197

[stuclem]

@andrewtchin do we need to keep the release note entry about this from 1.3.0 in the 1.3.1 release notes?

[andrewtchin]

No, the release note can be removed as in 1.3.1 we have the appliance-support.sh script
