Packaging Installation Manager log files via wizard

By using the Installation Manager wizard, you can create a .zip file that contains the following log files:

• Native log files in the <INSTALLATION_MANAGER_LOGS_DIR>\native directory.
• xml log files in the <INSTALLATION_MANAGER_LOGS_DIR> directory.

Where <INSTALLATION_MANAGER_LOGS_DIR> is the directory where Installation Manager creates the log files.

The <INSTALLATION_MANAGER_LOGS_DIR> default value is:

On Windows operating systems

C:\ProgramData\IBM\InstallationManager\logs

On UNIX and Linux operating systems

/var/ibm/InstallationManager/logs

To create a .zip file of the native log directory, perform the following steps:

1. Open the Installation Manager Start page.
2. Select Help>Export Data for Problem Analysis.
3. Enter the name of the directory where you want to create the .zip file and the .zip file name.
4. Press Ok. A .zip file that contains all log files is created in the directory you specified.
