D.1 Diagnostics Report

This chapter describes the Diagnostics Report. If you intend to communicate with MySQL Enterprise Monitor support, it is strongly recommended you provide this report with your support request.

Introduction

To generate a diagnostic report file, select Diagnostics Report from the Help menu. The information is provided as a time stamped Zip file (such as support-20160115T2238.zip). The information contained in the report includes detailed information about your server (or multiple servers if you selected a server group), including configuration, hardware, MySQL options/variables and historical graphs. To view the information extracted, unzip the downloaded file and double-click the index.html.

The Diagnostic Report is useful for debugging MySQL Enterprise Service Manager and MySQL Enterprise Monitor Agent. When filling out a My Oracle Support (MOS) ticket, include this report.
