ovs-bugtool - Open vSwitch bug reporting utility
ovs-bugtool
Generates a debug bundle with useful information about Open vSwitch
on this system and places it in /var/log/ovs-bugtool.
These options influence what categories of data ovs-bugtool collects.
--entries=list
Collect the capabilities specified in the comma-separated
list.
--all Collect all available capabilities.
--ovs In addition to Open vSwitch configuration and status,
ovs-bugtool can collect a variety of relevant system
information. This option limits collection to Open vSwitch-
specific categories.
--log-days=days
Include the logs with last modification time in the previous
days days in the debug bundle. The number of log files
included has a big impact on the eventual bundle size. The
default value is 20 days.
-y
--yestoall
Answer yes to all prompts.
--capabilities
Writes the categories that ovs-bugtool can collect on stdout
in XML, then exits.
These options influence the format and destination of ovs-bugtool
output.
--output=filetype
Generates a debug bundle with the specified file type.
Options include tar, tar.gz, tar.bz2, and zip.
--outfile=file
Write output to file. Mutually exclusive with --outfd.
--outfd=fd
Write output to file descriptor fd. This option must be used
with --output=tar.
--unlimited
Do not exclude files which are too large. Also skip checking
free disk space. By default up to 90 percent of the free disk
space can be used.
--debug
Print verbose debugging output.
-s
--silent
Suppress most output to stdout.
--help Print a summary of ovs-bugtool usage to stdout, then exit.
Here's a collection of some commonly useful options:
ovs-bugtool -y -s --output=tar.gz --outfile=/var/log/bugtool-
report.tgz
ovs-bugtool makes many assumptions about file locations and the
availability of system utilities. It has been tested on Debian and
Red Hat and derived distributions. On other distributions it is
likely to be less useful.
