Analysing show tech command

Hello

I had this new job as network tech support, I need to perform some health checks on some cisco routers and switches, lately I learned about the 'show tech' command, it generates quite much output, and I have difficulties analysing it.

Which information can I keep or throw so far as health checks are concerned.

Thanks

All of it is pretty handy, to be honest. What portions are you having difficulties with?
