Description Og Maciel 2014-08-14 18:31:26 UTC 
Description of problem:

Looks like foreman-debug does not include the logs provided by journalctl on systemd-based distros. I'd like to request that foreman-debug handle this specially for reporting issues on RHEL 7 hosts.

Comment 1 RHEL Program Management 2014-08-14 18:33:03 UTC 
Since this issue was entered in Red Hat Bugzilla, the release flag has been
set to ? to ensure that it is properly evaluated for this release.
Comment 3 Dominic Cleal 2014-08-15 08:40:18 UTC 
Created redmine issue http://projects.theforeman.org/issues/7100 from this bug
Comment 4 Lukas Zapletal 2014-11-12 10:33:47 UTC 
Isn't RHEL7 configured to forward all messages to /var/log/messages by default? I think so and we ship this file in foreman-debug.
Comment 5 Bryan Kearney 2015-08-25 18:00:11 UTC 
Upstream bug component is Packaging
Comment 6 Zach Huntington-Meath 2016-08-03 17:57:26 UTC 
Og, is this still an issue or can this be closed?
Comment 7 Lukas Zapletal 2016-08-09 09:26:33 UTC 
More than that, foreman-debug is part of sosreport and sosreport is the tool to be used for reporting.

But anyway, I'd keep this bug opened, let's leave it on backlog. We will eventually add journald support into foreman-debug. Bot will autoclose it.
Comment 8 Lukas Zapletal 2016-10-21 13:22:37 UTC 
RHEL7 has only memory-only systemd journald by default, not big deal.
Comment 9 Chris Roberts 2017-01-06 14:26:03 UTC 
Sosreport gathers this and the foreman-debug itself so marking as cantfix
