Automatic Support Request via SupportAssist

SupportAssist is a feature in Dell’s SAN Headquarters Software for EqualLogic that will generate a Support Request automatically* in case of a critical hardware event. At the same time it will generate a set of diagnostic log files and send them together with the critical event to Dell.
Our support team will contact you within an hour after SAN Headquarters sent the event. Outside of normal business hours initial contact could be delayed.

 

Note: Currently this feature only works for critical events that only include hardware failure. For any other issues please choose any other option mentioned in this document to contact Dell’s technical support. Also Dell’s technical support does not automatically send out replacement hardware but will first validate the failed hardware and confirm the dispatch details with you.

For further details look at our Dell EMC SupportAssist Enterprise 2.x page. There is also the Dell Support Assist Community for further questions.

EmailHome offers similar features like SupportAssist and opens a Support Request with Dell’s technical support. However it does only send an event but no diagnostic log files.
Our support team will contact you within an hour after SAN Headquarters sent the event. Outside of normal business hours initial contact could be delayed.
