> The `mc support` commands are designed for MinIO deployments registered with [MinIO SUBNET](https://min.io/pricing?jmp=docs) to ensure optimal outcome of diagnostics and performance testing. Deployments not registered with SUBNET cannot use the `mc support` commands.

> [!NOTE]
> **Changed: RELEASE.2022-12-02T23-48-47Z**

> `mc support logs` moved to `mc admin logs` and provide a simpler command interface for displaying server logs for the MinIO deployment.

> The output is similar to what is available via `journalctl -uf minio` for systemd-controlled deployments.

## Description {#description}

Use the [`mc admin logs`](#command-mc.admin.logs) command to show MinIO server logs.

The uploading feature remains disabled by default until explicitly enabled for a deployment on an opt-in only basis. If enabled, you can disable the feature at any time with [`mc support callhome disable`](/reference/minio-mc/mc-support-callhome/#mc.support.callhome.disable).
