Does RHEL 5 provide a command to collect RHEL system log in single compress file?

Hi,

I heard a command that can collect all RHEL 5 log in a single compress file before I forget.

Does any body know...What the command is ?

Thanks.

There's probably not a collect_all_log_files_into_single_archive.exe anywhere.

Given that, I don't know exactly what the thing you "heard of" did. But the obvious way to collect all logs:

Code:
tar -zcf /path/to/logs.tar.gz /var/log

This will archive the entire /var/log folder.

If that's not what you wanted, please explain exactly what you want.

Hi Corona688

Thanks for your reply.

Finally I remember the RedHat useful command " sosreport " or " sysreport "

That's I want, single command get all information into file. :-)
