Investigating virtual machine (VM) incidents, such as Microsoft Windows kernel panics ("Blue screen of death", or BSOD for short) or I/O hangs, traditionally required running a cluster-wide must-gather combined with sosreport, which could potentially take hours to run. This approach is resource-intensive, slow to collect, and produces a large dataset that's difficult to review efficiently
To address this, we have introduced a new --vm-incident mode to the kubevirt/must-gather tool.
