Issuing the Show Tech Support Command

The show tech support command is useful when collecting a large amount of information about your
switch for troubleshooting purposes. The output can be provided to technical support representatives
when reporting a problem.
You can issue a show tech support command from Fabric Manager for one or more switches in a fabric.
The results of each command are written to a text file, one file per switch, in a directory you specify. You
can then view these files using Fabric Manager.
You can also save the Fabric Manager map as a JPG file. The file is saved with the name of the seed
switch (for example, 172.22.94.250.jpg).
You can zip up all the files (the show tech support output and the map file image) and send the resulting
zipped file to technical support.
To issue the show tech support command using Fabric Manager, follow these steps:
Step 1 Choose Tools > Show Tech Support.
You see the Show Tech Support dialog box.
Step 2 Select the switches for which to view tech support information by checking the check boxes for each
switch.
Step 3 Set the time-out value.
