Overview

STUNT is an acronym for Support Team Unified Network Test. The script itself has grown beyond just network testing at this point, as it now collects a snapshot of information from a SailPoint virtual appliance (commonly referred to as a “VA”) to assist in troubleshooting.

Requirements

  • A SailPoint VA with SSH access

Guide

If your VA has Internet access, try pulling the stunt script and executing it with this single-line command:

wget -O ~sailpoint/stunt_21.sh https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sailpoint-oss/colab-stunt-script/v2.1/stunt.sh; bash ~sailpoint/stunt_21.sh -L

If your VA does not have access to the Internet, use the following process:

  1. Download the zip file to your local machine
  2. Upload the zip file to your VA via some secure method. This can be the “scp” binary on Windows Powershell, the “scp” binary on a Mac/Linux terminal, or another utility like WinSCP
  3. SSH into the VA
  4. Unzip the file with this command:
    unzip stunt_21.zip
  5. Make the shell script executable with this command:
    chmod +x stunt_21.sh
  6. Run the script with this command, or as directed by your Support contact:
    ./stunt_21.sh

You can modify the command in the final step to use any of the flags (or options) available to the script. Here is a list and those flags and what they do:

Table of options
-h Show the help text
-t Add a traceroute test to SQS
-p Add a ping test
-o Test all TLS certs against OpenSSL
-f Add automatic fixes; STUNT can detect some problems and attempt to fix them, but no changes are made without being opted-in by using this flag
-l or -L Gather all logs plus the stuntlog, and create a tar.gz archive of everything. The file this creates can be large, but usually it’s anywhere from 30-100MB.
-u Only perform forced update steps (this makes system changes, and requires at least one reboot when successful). If used, no other tests or data gathering will be performed.
-c Only perform a series of curl tests - this alternates between SQS and S3, and outputs to a new stuntlog. If used, no other tests or data gathering will be performed.

The most commonly used option is the -L flag which collects logs, like this: ./stuntv_21.sh -L

NOTE: Once the operation is complete, the final line of output contains a ready-to-use scp command you can copy and paste to your local machine in order to retrieve the tar.gz file the script creates for you. Provide this entire file to the SailPoint support team member via your case.
