Task:
Gather a log bundle for VMware support engineer for a vRA cluster.

With no VAMI, we generate by remote SSH into appliance.

1. Create the Log Bundle:
$ ssh root@vraappliance.mindwatering.net
<enter password>

root@vraappliance [ ~ ] vracli log-bundle
<wait for a few minutes, and view name output on last line>
...
The log bundle /home/root/log-bundle-20230101T112323.tar is now available.

2a. Using a file-transfer program, download the file to the local workstation.
2b. Delete the file from the appliance after transfer.

3. Upload to sftpsite.vmware.com, using the SR from the email.
