SupportAssist Enterprise Version 1.0 User's Guide

Uploading a collection from a disconnected site

About this task

When internet connectivity is available, SupportAssist Enterprise automatically collects and sends system information from your devices to Dell. If the server where SupportAssist Enterprise is installed does not have internet connectivity, you can choose to manually upload collections to Dell.

Steps

  1. Perform a collection from the device. See Starting the collection of system information from a single device.
  2. Access the collection file by using one of the following methods:
    • For collections from a storage, networking, chassis, or multiple device only — In the Collections page, select the collection and in the collection overview pane, click Download File.
    • If SupportAssist Enterprise is installed on a Windows operating system — Navigate to C:\Program Files\Dell\SupportAssist\reports and locate the collection .zip file.
    • If SupportAssist Enterprise is installed on a Linux operating system — Navigate to /opt/dell/supportassist/scripts/reports and locate the collection .zip file.
  3. Copy and paste the collection .zip file to another system that has internet connectivity.
  4. Visit https://techdirect.dell.com/fileUpload/
    The Dell Technical Support File Upload page is displayed.
  5. Type the Service Tag of the device.
  6. Type your company name, contact name, Service Request #, email address, Dell contact email, and address in the appropriate fields.
    NOTE: If you do not have a Service Request number, contact Dell Technical Support to open a service request.
  7. Click Choose File and browse to select the collection .zip file.
  8. Click Submit.
