             Summary: Script for creating a redacted tech support package
                 Key: SOLR-9587
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-9587
             Project: Solr
          Issue Type: New Feature
      Security Level: Public (Default Security Level. Issues are Public)
          Components: scripts and tools
            Reporter: Shawn Heisey
            Priority: Minor


When users need help with Solr from the project, relevant config and log 
information from their install is usually the best way that we can help them.  
If we had an easy way to gather all useful information into a single compressed 
file that a user could place onto a file sharing site, we'd be in awesome shape.

If the script was smart enough to try and keep the final size of the package 
under 1MB, which might be challenging until we have a better handle on logfile 
rotation, most users would be able to share the package using Apache's own 
pastebin, which can be found here: http://apaste.info

If we pass control to the SolrCLI Java class as part of the script 
functionality, we can also automatically redact any *config* information that 
we *know* to be sensitive, like passwords.  Automatic redaction of logfiles 
might be nearly impossible, but we should be making efforts in our standard 
INFO-level logging to never log anything most users would consider to be 
sensitive.  If the user bumps to DEBUG or TRACE, all bets are off.
