You can retrieve these logs from the Avamar server CLI using the "proxycp.jar" commands.

First, you can use "proxycp.jar --listvm" to list all the VMs:

admin@bmhavautl:~/>: java -jar proxycp.jar --listvm

======================= Starting ProxyCP ==========================

Proxycp : v2.51

Date    : February 16, 2016 1:15:29 PM EST

COMMAND : java -jar proxycp.jar --listvm

VDP/Nemo Detected : false

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

========================== Vms ==========================

SERVER1                                /vcenter.test.org/SERVER1  

SERVER2                                /vcenter.test.org/SERVER2  

SERVER3                                /vcenter.test.org/SERVER3  

SERVER4                                /vcenter.test.org/SERVER4  

SERVER5                                /vcenter.test.org/SERVER5  

SERVER6                                /vcenter.test.org/SERVER6  

SERVER7                                /vcenter.test.org/SERVER7  

SERVER7A                               /vcenter.test.org/SERVER7A

SERVER7TEST                            /vcenter.test.org/SERVER7TEST

SERVER8                                /vcenter.test.org/SERVER8  

SERVER9                                /vcenter.test.org/SERVER9  

========================== Done =============================

Then, you can use "proxycp.jar --getvmlogs --vm " to retrieve the logs:

admin@bmhavautl:~/>: java -jar proxycp.jar --getvmlogs --vm SERV

======================= Starting ProxyCP ==========================

Proxycp : v2.51

VDP/Nemo Detected : false

All of the logs will be in /home/admin/proxycp/

Happy to help!  I think there's a limit of 15 days to these logs, so if your backup failed on or around Feb. 4th, you'll want to extract those logs as soon as possible.

Good luck!
