Description

Describe the issue ExchangeLogCollector fails to collect the DailyPerformanceLogs if a customer changes the path to a non-default one.

Expected behavior Script should be able to collect the daily performance logs even if the path was changed. We should decide if this is something we want to support or if we want to show a warning instead.

Additional context This is, because we're using a static path:

        if ($PassedInfo.DailyPerformanceLogs) {
            #Daily Performance Logs are always by days worth
            $copyFrom = "$Script:localExInstall`Logging\Diagnostics\DailyPerformanceLogs"

            try {
                $logmanOutput = logman ExchangeDiagnosticsDailyPerformanceLog
                $logmanRootPath = $logmanOutput | Select-String "Root Path:"

                if (!$logmanRootPath.ToString().Contains($copyFrom)) {
                    $copyFrom = $logmanRootPath.ToString().Replace("Root Path:", "").Trim()
                    Write-Verbose "Changing the location to get the daily performance logs to '$copyFrom'"
                }
            } catch {
                Write-Verbose "Couldn't get logman info to verify Daily Performance Logs location"
                Invoke-CatchActions
            }
            Add-LogCopyBasedOffTimeTaskAction $copyFrom "Daily_Performance_Logs"
        }
