Creating a Support Bundle

Our support team may request a support bundle from you. The support file is an archive containing logs, diagnostic data, and system information that helps the team diagnose problems.

To create a support file:

  1. Open a terminal window.

  2. Launch the support bundler:

    /Applications/PCoIPClient.app/Contents/Resources/pcoip-client-support-bundler $USER 
    

where,

$USER is the environment variable that represents the username of the current user.

The support bundler will collect diagnostic information and logs, and bundle them into a .tar.gz archive in the user's home directory. Support bundle files look like this: supportbundle-client-2021-04-21T21212112Z.tar.gz.
