If you encounter an issue with your SMART System and contact Wildlife Acoustics Support, they may ask you to generate a file containing copies of your SMART system's configuration and recent log files. This can help Wildlife Acoustics Support recreate and diagnose the issue.

About this task

A dump file is a .zip archive that includes the following information:

  • Microphone settings and schedules, including any schedules or settings profiles not currently in use
  • SMART Controller logs
  • System settings, including rsync login credentials

Procedure

  1. Connect to the SMART Control Panel and go to Maintenance.
  2. Select Create Diagnostic Dump File.

Results

If you are running version 1.3.4 or later of the SMART System software, a file named systemName_date_time_dump.zip will be downloaded through your browser. Otherwise, you can retrieve the file from the SMART filesystem at /var/www/html/storage/logs/dump.zip.
