Configuring SupportAssist Manually

To manually configure SupportAssist service, use the following commands.
  1. Accept the end-user license agreement (EULA).
    CONFIGURATION mode
    eula-consent {support-assist} {accept | reject}
    NOTE Once accepted, you do not have to accept the EULA again.
    DellEMC(conf)# eula-consent support-assist accept
    I accept the terms of the license agreement. You can reject
    the license agreement by configuring this command 
    'eula-consent support-assist reject'.
    
    By installing SupportAssist, you allow Dell to save your 
    contact information (e.g. name, phone number and/or 
    email address) which would be used to provide technical 
    support for your Dell products and services.  Dell may use 
    the information for providing recommendations to improve  
    your IT infrastructure.
    
    Dell SupportAssist also collects and stores machine diagnostic 
    information, which may include but is not limited to configuration 
    information, user supplied contact information, names of data 
    volumes, IP addresses, access control lists, diagnostics & 
    performance information, network configuration information, 
    host/server configuration & performance information and related 
    data ("Collected Data") and transmits this information to Dell. By 
    downloading SupportAssist and agreeing to be bound by these terms 
    and the Dell end user license agreement, available at: 
    www.dell.com/aeula, you agree to allow Dell to provide remote 
    monitoring services of your IT environment and you give Dell the 
    right to collect the Collected Data in accordance with Dells Privacy 
    Policy, available at: www.dell.com/privacypolicycountryspecific, 
    in order to enable the performance of all of the various functions 
    of SupportAssist during your entitlement to receive related repair 
    services from Dell,.  You further agree to allow Dell to transmit 
    and store the Collected Data from SupportAssist in accordance with 
    these terms.  You agree that the provision of SupportAssist may 
    involve international transfers of data from you to Dell and/or 
    to Dells affiliates, subcontractors or business partners.  When 
    making such transfers, Dell shall ensure appropriate protection 
    is in place to safeguard the Collected Data being transferred in 
    connection with SupportAssist.  If you are downloading SupportAssist 
    on behalf of a company or other legal entity, you are further 
    certifying to Dell that you have appropriate authority to provide 
    this consent on behalf of that entity.  If you do not consent to 
    the collection, transmission and/or use of the Collected Data,
    you may not download, install or otherwise use SupportAssist.
    NOTE This step is not mandatory and you can configure SupportAssist manually without performing this step. Even before you accept or reject the EULA, the configuration data is sent to the default centrally deployed SupportAssist Server. If you reject the EULA, the configuration data is not transmitted to the SupportAssist server.
  2. Move to the SupportAssist Configuration mode.
    To manually configure SupportAssist, use the following command.
    CONFIGURATION mode
    support-assist
    DellEMC(conf)#support-assist
    DellEMC(conf-supportassist)#
  3. (Optional) Configure the contact information for the company.
    SUPPORTASSIST mode

    DellEMC(conf)#support-assist
    DellEMC(conf-supportassist)#contact-company name test
    DellEMC(conf-supportassist-cmpy-test)#
  4. (Optional) Configure the contact name for an individual.
    SUPPORTASSIST mode

    DellEMC(conf)#support-assist
    DellEMC(conf-supportassist)#contact-person first john last doe
    DellEMC(conf-supportassist-pers-john_doe)#
  5. (Optional) Configure the name of the custom server and move to SupportAssist Server mode.
    SUPPORTASSIST mode
    server server-name
    DellEMC(conf)#support-assist
    DellEMC(conf-supportassist)#server default
    DellEMC(conf-supportassist-serv-default)#
    You can configure a maximum of two servers:
    • default server
    • custom user configured server
  6. Enable all activities and servers for the SupportAssist service.
    SUPPORTASSIST mode
    enable all
    DellEMC(conf)#support-assist
    DellEMC(conf-supportassist)#enable all
    
  7. Trigger an activity event immediately.
