June 13, 201610 yr Are there any recommendations on how to post larger diagnostics files? Mine was about 6 times the limit. I have seen a feature request and several comments but haven't found the solution. Tried breaking it into multiple zip files which didn't work with a .z01 extension.
June 13, 201610 yr When the diagnostics zip file is too large, what I would suggest is the following: * Look at the files in the log folder: ls -al /var/log * There will be various log files there, similar to docker.log, syslog, syslog.1, syslog.2, and possibly others. Check their sizes and select the largest. There should normally be only one that is really huge, over 10MB. If more than one is huge (over 3MB), then chop each of them. * Run the following command to chop each down to size: (replace file_name with the name of the huge file you selected) truncate -s 2M /var/log/file_name (that's a small s and capital M) When you grab the diagnostics now, it should be MUCH smaller, suitable for attaching here. This truncation is done automatically for you in 6.2-beta22 or later. Don't worry about what was chopped, it's not useful and we don't want it!
