How To Collect a Sos Report

edited Dec 3, 2024 2:42AM in Linux

A sos report can be collected on systems running Oracle Linux or Red Hat Linux in order to obtain system configuration information and logs.

If the sos package, which provides the sos report utility, isn't installed, install it using the linked instructions.

To collect a sos report, run the following command in a terminal as root, without arguments:

For Oracle Linux 8 and higher

# sos report

For Oracle Linux 6 and 7

# sosreport

If the system has a lot of packages installed, and sos report takes a long time to complete, try disabling rpm database verification:

For Oracle Linux 8 and higher

# sos report -k rpm.rpmva=off
