If you can identify the logs that can help resolve the issue, collect the
appropriate logs. If you cannot identify the required logs for resolving the
problem, contact technical support to get advice on which logs to collect.
Getting the 'support' log is the starting information to troubleshoot the issue,
but other logs are required. If your troubleshooting is unsuccessful, prepare
to contact Technical Support by filling out a problem report.

"About contacting Symantec Technical Support"
The /usr/openv/netbackup/bin/goodies/support script creates a
file that contains data necessary for Technical Support to debug any problems
you encounter. The support logs provide the starting point to troubleshoot
the issue. You may need to collect other logs in case the issue cannot be
resolved using the support logs.
