Send Logfiles to F5 Support and compress them

If you need to send all logfiles to F5 Support you need tom compress them all.

You can do this like this as root user:

1. Log in to the command line.
2. Create a tar archive in the /var/tmp directory that contains all the files in the /var/log directory, by typing the following command:
   tar zcvf /var/tmp/$HOSTNAME-logs.tar.gz /var/log/*
3. This will generate a file in /var/tmp with the name of the device followed by the -logs.tar.gz suffix. You need to transfer this file out of the system using an utility like scp/WinSCP
