Thank you for taking the time to provide your ideas to IBM. We truly value our relationship with you and appreciate your willingness to share details about your experience, your recommendations, and ideas.I am sorry to inform you that our team has evaluated the request and has determined that it cannot be implemented at this time for Maximo Anywhere. However, it might be something that we can include in our new mobility solution, Maximo Mobile.We truly value your relationship and are committed to providing you with an outstanding experience. Thank you for bringing this idea forward. If you have any additional feedback, thoughts or ideas, or if there is anything else I can do, please do not hesitate to reply to this message to continue the conversation.
The "upload log" functionality delivered in IBM Maximo Anywhere 7.6.3.1 does not meet the full requirement.
The new functionality creates a copy of the log file and gives the user the path to the new file.
It doesn't appear to upload the log to any location e.g. the anywhere server.
It is not automatically upload it at regular intervals
It does meet the initial step that I mentioned in a comment on this RFE on 17 Feb 2017.
That is a temporary solution but system administrators require the full functionality because there will be users who cannot/will not use a manual process.
thanks
A useful initial change would be to have the ability to write the logs to a file on the device's filesystem.
The system administrators could then use other tools e.g. batch files on the device / device management software to retrieve the files on demand. Or users could be instructed to open a new email and select the
In that scenario the user may just have to go to folder containing the logs and select the last few files.
We are looking at how we could implement this as a customisation but it would be better if it could be implemented as part of the core product.
Hello IBM,
We have identified a new use case which makes it essential that we have this.
Not all clients use the built in email application so they can't "email" the logs. This means that users have to use the email option, then select the text, copy it and then put it into a different email application and send it from there.
In this case that the email functionality is based on a web page.
Trying to talk a non-technical user on how to do this as they are stood in a busy main road is an very difficult task and some users may give up.
Other customers may also have this scenario.
best regards,
Mark
