About this task

This topic describes the procedure for getting diagnostic data from IBM z/OS Connect server containers in Red Hat CodeReady Workspaces.

Procedure

  1. List the namespaces and get the required namespace.
    From the oc client command line, enter the following command:
    oc get namespace
  2. List the pods
    Use the oc get pods command. This command has the following format:
    oc get pods -n <namespace>
    For example,
    oc get pods -n employeeProject
  3. Collect the must gather documents
    Use the oc exec command to invoke the zosconnect_must_gather.sh script. This command has the following format:
    oc exec -it <pod_name> /opt/ibm/zosconnect/zosconnect_must_gather.sh -n <namespace>
    For example,
    oc exec -it ibm-zcon-server-5467d7989b-m8kpw /opt/ibm/zosconnect/zosconnect_must_gather.sh -n employeeProject
  4. Use the oc cp command to copy the must gather documents to the host system.
    The command has the following format:
    oc cp <pod_name>:/logs/zosconnect_mustgather.<timestamp>.tar.gz /logsToIBM/ -n <namespace>
    For example,
    oc cp ibm-zcon-server-5467d7989b-m8kpw::/logs/zosconnect_mustgather.22.02.15_15.38.55.tar.gz /logsToIBM/ -n employeeProject
