Hi,
you can use this command.
tabadmin ziplogs -l -n -d -d mm/dd/yyyy
The above command creates a zipped file named logs.zip that includes logs dated December 14, 2015 up to the present; earlier logs are excluded. The -n option captures information about the server environment, including which ports are in use. To see a list of all the ziplogs options, type tabadmin ziplogs -h.

You can find the zipped log file archive in the Tableau Server bin directory.

Hi,

You can use below mentioned option with ziplogs. but what you are searching for is not possible i guess

l --with-latest-dump Limit the included log files to only the most recent ones to help reduce file size. By default, the 10 most recent log files are included.
