3.2 Creating a Diagnostics Package

If Technical Support is helping you resolve an Endpoint Security Agent issue on one of your devices, you might be asked to generate a diagnostic package for Support to review. This package contains information about the device’s Group Policy object, registry settings, system, and system events.

To create a diagnostics package:

  1. Open the Endpoint Security Agent About dialog box. See Working with the Endpoint Security Agent.

  2. Click Diagnostics.

  3. Select the information to be included in the package.

    Group Policy Object: Captures the current GPO for the user/device as designated by your directory service.

    Last Memory Dump: Captures the last memory dump generated by the device.

    Registry Settings: Captures the device’s current registry settings.

    System Information: Captures the device’s system information.

    System Event Logs: Captures the device’s current System Event logs.

  4. Click Create Package to generate the package.

    The generated package (ZESDiagnostics_YYYYMMDD_HHMMSS.zip.enc) is saved on the desktop. This file is encrypted and can only be viewed by Micro Focus Support.

IMPORTANT:If you have a redirect configured for a desktop share, set up either in a group policy object or in the registry, the diagnostics package is deposited in one of the following locations:

  • C:\ProgramData\Novell\ZES\TempFiles

  • C:\Users\All Users\Novell\ZES\TempFiles
