Support Bundle

Support bundle is a collection of information from Google Cloud's Agent for SAP, that helps Customer Care in providing you troubleshooting support. This feature is available for Google Cloud's Agent for SAP version 2.1 or later.

Support bundle includes the following information:

Google Cloud's Agent for SAP log and configuration files, including those related to its Backint and disk snapshot features.
SAP HANA traces and topology files for the given hostname and SID.
Cloud Storage Backint agent for SAP HANA configuration file and logs.
For a high-availability (HA) cluster on RHEL, when you specify pacemaker-diagnosis="true", the output of the sosreport is saved in the following directory: /tmp/google-cloud-sap-agent/pacemaker-TIMESTAMP. If the execution of the sosreport command fails, then the output of crm_report is saved in the specified directory.
For an HA cluster on SUSE, when you specify pacemaker-diagnosis=true, the output of the hb_report and supportconfig utilities is saved in the following directory: /tmp/google-cloud-sap-agent/pacemaker-TIMESTAMP. If the execution of these utilities fails, then the output of the hb_report and crm_report are saved in the specified directory.
It also collects the /var/log/messages file which helps by providing useful information about the linux systems operation.

To generate the support bundle for an agent instance running on Linux, run the following command on your host:

sudo /usr/bin/google_cloud_sap_agent supportbundle --sid="SID" --instance-numbers="INSTANCE_NUMBERS" --hostname="HOST_NAME" [--pacemaker-diagnosis="BOOLEAN_VALUE"]

Replace the following:

SID: your SAP system ID.
INSTANCE_NUMBERS: the SAP instance numbers for which you want to generate the support bundle.
To specify multiple instance numbers, separate them using a space. For example, 00 11 22. When you specify two or more SAP instance numbers, the command generates one combined support bundle for the specified instances.
HOST_NAME: the name of the host on which you run the command.
BOOLEAN_VALUE: the value true or false, which determines if the Pacemaker related diagnosis is performed or not; the default value is false.
