An agent handed a bundle path had no way to know its layout without grepping through random logs first — confirmed by watching a separate session read bee-nvidia.log before anything else on a real bundle. Embeds a single README.md (bee-embed, internal/app/assets/) explaining what bee is and giving direct answers to the questions someone analyzing a bundle is most likely to ask (did the tests pass, what hardware is this, is a service healthy, RAID/GPU/NVLink state, etc), written at the bundle root by both BuildSupportBundle (support-bundle archive root, sibling of manifest.txt) and blackboxWorker.syncCycle (removable-media boot-folder root, which otherwise has no manifest.txt-equivalent pointing anywhere).

# README — how to read this bundle
|
|
|
|
**If you are an AI agent that just listed or was pointed at this directory:
|
|
read this file before opening any other file in it.** It tells you what's
|
|
here and exactly where to look, so you don't burn time grepping through
|
|
random logs to answer something this file already answers directly.
|
|
|
|
You are looking at a diagnostic export from **bee** (BEE-SP), a hardware
|
|
audit / acceptance-testing / burn-in tool for GPU servers. It runs on the
|
|
server itself (as a live-CD or an installed service) and produces this
|
|
export by: collecting a full hardware inventory, running SAT (System
|
|
Acceptance Test) checks against CPU/memory/storage/GPU/RAID, capturing raw
|
|
diagnostic command output, and logging its own systemd services.
|
|
|
|
## Fastest answers to common questions
|
|
|
|
- **"What hardware is in this server?"** → `export/bee-audit.json`. The
|
|
master inventory: board, firmware, CPUs, memory, storage, PCIe devices
|
|
(GPUs/NICs/RAID controllers), power supplies, sensors, event logs. Every
|
|
component has a `status` field (`OK`/`Warning`/`Critical`/`Unknown`).
|
|
- **"Did the acceptance tests pass?"** → grep `overall_status=` across every
|
|
`export/bee-sat/*/summary.txt`. That key is always present and is the
|
|
fastest single-line verdict for that run (`OK`, `FAILED`, `PARTIAL`, or
|
|
`UNSUPPORTED`).
|
|
- **"What's the *current* rolled-up health per component?"** →
|
|
`export/component-status.json`. One record per component key (e.g.
|
|
`pcie:gpu:nvidia`, `cpu:all`, `psu:0`), each with a `status` and a
|
|
`history` array. **The history is a transition log, not a per-check
|
|
journal** — a component whose status never changed only has one entry,
|
|
even if it was checked hundreds of times. A gap in timestamps does not
|
|
mean it stopped being monitored.
|
|
- **"Is a specific service healthy, or did it crash/restart-loop?"** →
|
|
`systemd/<service>.status.txt` (current `systemctl status`) and
|
|
`systemd/<service>.journal.log` (`journalctl -u <service>` for that
|
|
service's window). `systemd/combined.journal.log` has everything,
|
|
chronological, if you need cross-service correlation.
|
|
- **"What's the RAID/drive state?"** →
|
|
`export/techdump/storcli64-drives.json` and `storcli2-show-all.json` (LSI
|
|
controllers) — per-slot state like `JBOD`, `UGood`, `Onln`, `UBad`. A
|
|
drive in `JBOD`/`UBad` state cannot join a new virtual disk without first
|
|
being converted (`set good force`).
|
|
- **"GPU topology / NVLink health?"** →
|
|
`export/techdump/nvidia-smi-topo.txt` (which GPUs are NVLink-bonded to
|
|
which, and how many links), `nvidia-smi-nvlink-status.txt` (per-link
|
|
active/inactive — only present in bundles built after this capture was
|
|
added; older bundles only have the topo -m aggregate), `nvidia-smi-nvlink-errors.txt`
|
|
(replay/recovery/CRC error counters, should be zero). All lanes of a
|
|
bonded pair are expected to show active; even one `<inactive>` lane next
|
|
to otherwise-active ones is a real fault signature, not benign — "no
|
|
NVLink present" instead shows *all* lanes inactive.
|
|
- **"What tasks were run from the web UI, in what order, with what
|
|
result?"** → `export/tasks-state.json` is the index (id, target, status,
|
|
timestamps, paths). Each task also has its own directory
|
|
`export/tasks/<NNN>_<slug>_<done|failed>/` with `task.log` (live output),
|
|
`report.json`/`report.html` (rendered result + charts).
|
|
- **"What build/version is this, and when was it captured?"** →
|
|
`manifest.txt` (`bee_version=`, `generated_at_utc=`) at the top level. If
|
|
the bundle's own folder/file name embeds `(BEE-SP vXX.YY)`, that's the
|
|
same version, useful for cross-referencing against the bee git repo's
|
|
release tags if you're checking whether a specific fix shipped in this
|
|
build.
|
|
|
|
## Top-level layout
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
manifest.txt bee_version, host, generated_at_utc, export_dir,
|
|
then a flat "path<TAB>size" listing of every file
|
|
in this bundle — a quick inventory/sanity check.
|
|
README.md this file — read this first.
|
|
export/ mirror of the live /appdata/bee/export directory —
|
|
see "export/" below.
|
|
systemd/ <service>.status.txt + <service>.journal.log per
|
|
monitored systemd unit, plus combined.journal.log.
|
|
techdump/, system/ raw command output not tied to a specific bee-*
|
|
service — see below.
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## `export/` in detail
|
|
|
|
This is a straight mirror of the live server's export directory, so
|
|
everything below also applies when reading a raw `bee export` output
|
|
directly (not wrapped in a support-bundle archive).
|
|
|
|
| Path | What it is |
|
|
|---|---|
|
|
| `bee-audit.json` | The master hardware snapshot (see above). |
|
|
| `bee-audit.log` | Log of the hardware-audit collector itself: what it queried, what it skipped and why (e.g. a field unsupported by the current driver — not necessarily an error). |
|
|
| `bee-web.log` | Web UI service log. |
|
|
| `bee-network.log`, `bee-nvidia.log`, `bee-sshsetup.log`, `bee-selfheal.log`, `bee-blackbox.log`, `bee-hpc-tuning.log` | Per-service startup/runtime logs for the correspondingly-named systemd unit. |
|
|
| `runtime-health.json` / `.log` | A lighter, more frequent health snapshot than the full audit — good for "was it fine 5 minutes ago" without the cost of a full re-audit. |
|
|
| `component-status.json` | Current rolled-up component health — see "Fastest answers" above. |
|
|
| `blackbox-state.json` | Present if continuous blackbox capture (mirroring this export dir to removable media on a schedule) is or was active; tracks the sync target and last successful sync. |
|
|
| `techdump/` | Raw diagnostic command output, captured once per audit cycle. This is ground truth: `nvidia-smi-*.txt/.csv` (GPU state/topology/NVLink), `storcli64-drives.json` / `storcli2-show-all.json` (RAID), `lspci-*.txt`, `lscpu.txt`, `lsblk.json`, `dmidecode-*.txt`, `ipmitool-*.txt` (BMC sensors/SEL/FRU), `smartctl-*.json`, `nvme-list.json`, `sensors.json`. Higher-level views (the audit JSON, the web UI's topology page) are built from these. |
|
|
| `bee-sat/<target>-<timestamp>/` | One directory per acceptance-test run — `target` is what was tested (`gpu-nvidia`, `cpu`, `memory`, `storage`, `nccl-tests`, `gpu-nvidia-bandwidth`, `nvidia-config` covering GPU config/NVLink/Confidential-Computing readiness, etc). Each contains `summary.txt` (key=value, always has `overall_status`), a full human-readable report, numbered per-job logs, and `verbose.log` (every subprocess invocation + exit code — the place to look when a summary doesn't explain *why* something failed). |
|
|
| `tasks/<NNN>_<slug>_<done\|failed>/` | One directory per task launched from the web UI's task queue — see "Fastest answers" above. |
|
|
| `tasks-state.json` | Index of every task (id, target, status, timestamps, artifact paths). |
|
|
| `systemd/` (nested) | Historical per-service snapshots captured as part of an audit cycle, same shape as the top-level `systemd/` described below. |
|
|
|
|
## `systemd/` and `system/` (top level, sibling of `export/`)
|
|
|
|
- `systemd/<service>.status.txt`, `systemd/<service>.journal.log`,
|
|
`systemd/combined.journal.log` — captured fresh at bundle-build time (not
|
|
mirrored from `export/`), so this is the most current service state.
|
|
- `system/` — general OS-level diagnostics not specific to bee:
|
|
`dmesg.txt`, X server / display-manager logs. Mostly relevant to
|
|
physical/console access issues, not hardware health.
|
|
|
|
## Timestamps
|
|
|
|
Everything is UTC unless a filename or field name says otherwise
|
|
(`*_local`, etc. — rare).
