A Windows Server 2019 VM in the production cluster has begun blue-screening overnight. For security reasons you are not allowed to open an RDP session to the server, but the machine is online and reporting to Microsoft System Center Configuration Manager (SCCM). You need to grab the server's CCM log files (such as WUAHandler.log and ScanAgent.log) so you can review them on the site server without logging on to the VM. Which SCCM client-notification action should you trigger from the Configuration Manager console to accomplish this task?
The client-diagnostics action Collect Client Logs instructs the selected SCCM client to compress all of its CCM log files (up to 100 MB) and upload them to the management point, where they can be opened from Resource Explorer on the site server. This provides immediate access to the logs needed for troubleshooting without requiring interactive login.
Enable verbose logging only changes the detail level of future log entries and does not retrieve existing logs.
Evaluate software update deployments launches a compliance scan but does not copy log files to the site server.
Download computer policy forces a policy refresh; again, no log files are transferred.
Therefore, Collect Client Logs is the correct action.
