set support-assist

Description Sets parameters for the SupportAssist feature.
NOTE:Before you can enable SupportAssist, you must review the EULA by executing show support-assist with the eula parameter: # show support-assist eula

When you enable SupportAssist for the first time, the CLI presents a confirmation to ensure you have reviewed and accept the EULA. The agreement allows remote monitoring of the storage system, collection of diagnostic information, and transmission of that data to a remote support server. Reply yes to enable the support service or no to leave it disabled.

After enabling the service, use the set support-assist-connection command to establish connectivity to the SupportAssist server, then use the set support-assist-contact command to enter customer information.
