Setting the content to minimal is not good enough to give us the information that we need as administrators. This is very disappointing. The seven attachments don't amount to much space(5 at 4K and a 16K and a 20K), but with several systems sending these to the responsible admin team, and their usefulness being only when there is a problem to analyze that is hopefully infrequent, I'd like this request to be *escalated* to add an option to dispense with the attachments or add attachments only when there is a serious problem. You must see that these attachments are completely unnecessary even with 99.5% of real problems they are not necessary or even helpful to conclude what the problem is and fix it.
Because we can't select some recipients for minimal and some for complete, if we wish to get useable information to the admins, we still can't send a 'minimal' message to external recipients either and these attachments have information that would be helpful to anyone wishing to get information about our networks and configurations for hostile purposes. I suppose we could disable auto-support and run a script to set and send minimal auto-support externally and then reset it to complete and send to internal distribution, but then we would not get timely urgent messages for crashes and component failures.
For the others copied: I am complaining about the seven attachments that accompany every auto-support message after OnTap 6.5 is installed: 200401141304.0.cm_stats.gz 200401141304.0.ems.gz 200401141304.0.exports.gz 200401141304.0.hosts.gz 200401141304.0.rc.gz 200401141304.0.resolv_conf.gz 200401141304.0.syslog_conf.gz
And also that we can't build two lists for auto-support with one for minimal and one for complete messages.
Anyone else have another solution or work around?
