Manage Debug Bundles in Redpanda Console

This feature requires an enterprise license. To get a trial license key or extend your trial period, generate a new trial license key. To purchase a license, contact Redpanda Sales.

If Redpanda Console has enterprise features enabled and it cannot find a valid license either in its local configuration or in the connected Redpanda cluster, it redirects you to the license expiration landing page, and all other access is restricted.

Learn how to generate, download, and delete debug bundles in Redpanda Console for comprehensive cluster diagnostics.

Prerequisites

Generate a debug bundle

You can generate a debug bundle for all brokers in the cluster and download it onto your local computer for inspection.

Only one debug bundle can exist at a time. If you generate a new debug bundle, any existing bundle from a previous run will be automatically deleted.

  1. Log in as an admin user.

  2. Click Admin in the sidebar.

    This option is visible only when logged in as an admin user.

  3. Go to Debug bundle.

  4. Click Generate new.

  5. Wait until the process is complete.

  6. Click debug-bundle.zip to download the bundle on your local computer.

  7. Unzip the file to inspect the contents.

For guidance on reading the debug bundle, see Inspect a Debug Bundle.

Delete a debug bundle

To manually delete a debug bundle:

  1. Log in as an admin user.

  2. Click Admin in the sidebar.

    This option is visible only when logged in as an admin user.
