 Description   

When someone runs the support report tool, as shown here:

https://mariadb.com/kb/en/mariadb/system-troubleshooting-mariadb-columnstore/#mariadb-columnstore-support-tool

The resulting support report archive contains log report archives for each node. When you unpack the log report archive for a given node, the logs are located in the following directory:

/var/log/mariadb/columnstore/

Is it really necessary to include the full path of the logs in the archive? In my opinion, it is unnecessary and a minor inconvenience to have the full path.

This is definitely an annoyance, it would be better if you could remove the full path and tar and have something like:

  • logs
    • pm1
          • err.log etc

within the outer tar file. That makes it easier to work with both with a visual archive ui as well as extracting locally.
