Log\_SubmitLogs

VB Scripting Library > OSD Scripting Library > Log functions (OSD)

Submits all registered logs to a subfolder under the specified root folder set in the global value gsLogServerFolder.
The logfiles will be copied to a subfolder with the same name as the UUID of the computer.
Before submitting, all logfiles are scanned for unwanted passwords etc.

No arguments provided.

Boolean, TRUE if function completed successfully.

Typpically used in the PreBootScript.wsf
If the web service is enabled in OSDGui.ini, files are submitted to this service instead of copying files to a file share.

The following example will do the following:

  • Set the global variable gsLogServerFolder to a log share on the OSD server.

  • Add a custom logfile is registered for submit along with the well-known logfiles.

  • Register the product key as an unwanted text string that should be excluded from all files.

  • Submit the logfiles.
