Unable to generate vRSLCM log bundle through UI
There was a recent scenario where vRSLCM log generation was not happening through UI
So let's take a minute to see what happens when you generate a log bundle and then we can inspect what could have gone wrong this the previous case where it wasn't generating one.
When I click on generate log bundle ....

It generates a request , upgrade planner spec and then the engine request . What's important here is the downloadUrl is pointing to the previously generated log bundle.
