Export support information

Virtual Connect Manager enables you to generate a support log, which can then be exported for technical support assistance. This operation is available to users with the Export Support Files role operation assigned their VC role. For more information, see "Role Management (Role Operations) screen (on page 85)."

To generate a support log, select Export Support Information from the Tools pull-down menu. Allow several minutes for Virtual Connect Manager to collect all of the information. After the information is collected, you are prompted to save the information file locally.

CAUTION: To avoid loss of data, do not close the browser window containing the VCM GUI while the support information is being collected. If the browser window is closed, you must close and then restart the browser.

The following support information is collected:•System Log files•VC Manager trace files•Web Server Log file•VC Manager configuration files•VC-Enet module database content in XML format•VC-FC module database content in XML format•Ethernet switch status and configuration information•Operating system status information•Directory listings•Boot Loader environment variables

The time required to export support information varies depending on your Virtual Connect configuration and might require several minutes to complete. If you are using a proxy server to connect to the Virtual Connect Manager, configure it so that long connections do not time out. If an automatic configuration script is used, configure it so that the proxy server is bypassed for the Virtual Connect Manager IP address.

When in FIPS mode, you must provide the required encryption key for the support information. The encryption key must be at least eight characters. Confirm the encryption key, and then click OK to continue.
