Generate Support Archive in Exasol Admin
This article explains how to generate an archive with logs and system information in Exasol Admin.
In Exasol 2025.1 and later you can use Exasol Admin to automatically create an archive with the necessary logs, which you can then include with your support case. For earlier versions, you must generate the logs manually using EXAsupport.
Prerequisites

Generate logs and system information
-
Log in to Exasol Admin and open the Databases page.

On the Support archive page, use the dropdown menus to select the logs and backtraces that you want to retrieve, and the databases and nodes to retrieve the information from. You must select at least one node and at least one of the following sources: Cluster logs, Backtraces, Database logs, or Databases.
You can collect information about a specific SQL session by entering the session ID in Sessions.

Click on Create and download support archive.
