Data gather

You can collect the data and logs of the application to create a backup of all the definitions, traces, and messages. This collection of data permits you to manage, monitor, and troubleshoot the application.

Collecting data

You can run the data-gather.sh file to gather the data and a zip file is created with the following folders.

Definitions: The folder contains definitions of all items in the database.
Logs: The folder contains the following log files.
- Messages.log: The file contains critical messages.
- Trace.log: The file contains critical messages and traces that describe information about the flow and time taken by each request through various microservices in the application.
- Metrics: Numerical representation of data about a specific aspect of the application.

You can download the data-gather.sh file from the GitHub repository.

After downloading the file, run the following steps to gather the data:

Connect to the required cluster and namespace.
Navigate to the file location where you have downloaded the data-gather.sh file.
Open the command line interface.
Run the following command:
```
./data-gather.sh uno-namespace /path/to/OCLI/executable/ocli
```
Where,
uno-namespace is the Kubernetes namespace where all the microservices of the HCL Universal Orchestrator are deployed.
/path/to/OCLI/executable/ocli is the location of Orchestration CLI executable file.
A file that contains messages, logs, and metrics are created in zip format at the same location as the script file.
