A Consul administrator needs to collect a comprehensive diagnostic bundle from a running Consul agent for offline troubleshooting and support. The bundle should include metrics, logs, and performance profiles over a short capture window. Which command produces this bundle?

Question

Accepted Answer

B. consul debug -duration=2m -output=./consul-debug.tar.gz. The `consul debug` command connects to a running agent and collects logs, metrics (from the telemetry endpoint), goroutine profiles, and other diagnostic information over a configurable duration, then writes everything into a compressed archive. Option a is wrong because `consul monitor` only streams logs; it does not collect metrics or profiles.
