Generating a Grid Status report

Use this procedure to generate a Grid Status report.

The ION Grid can generate a report that includes a variety of information that is useful for determining the state of a grid and its deployed applications.

The report will indicate problems that it finds and it will also contain log files, configuration files, and other things that may be of use for tracking down problems.

Although you can use the report to confirm that the grid is working satisfactorily, the report is helpful to include when you are required to report a bug or problem with the ION Grid or an application running in the grid.

  1. Select the Monitoring tab and then the Status Report tab.
  2. Click the question mark icon for detailed instructions on the task.
    When the report is ready, a Save dialog box is displayed, or the generated file is downloaded. This will depend on the settings of your browser.
  3. Optionally, If the Grid Management Pages user interface is not available, you can use the Grid CLI, and perform this command:
    See grid-cli.jar statusReport create:
    E.g. java -jar <Grid installation folder path>/tools/grid-cli.jar statusReport create -file=statusreport.zip
    Note: When generating a Grid Status Report from a CLI, it needs to be performed on all relevant hosts in the Grid, as this only collects the logs locally.
