Dell Lasso Version 4.7.3 User's Guide

Lasso is a Windows-based client and server utility that automates the collection of hardware, software, and storage logs and configuration from servers, Storage Arrays, Fibre Channel switches, Ethernet and FCoE Switches, Attached Hosts, Enclosures, Management and Monitoring Software, and Wireless Controllers.

After Lasso collects the data, it parses the data into Extensible Markup Language (XML) and HyperText Markup Language (HTML) formats. The data is then packaged along with the collected data and encrypted. The collected data is saved in a .zip and also in an encrypted zip.gpg file format on the local system. Optionally, you can enable Lasso to automatically upload the collected data to Dell Technical Support. For secure site customers Lasso can filter the collected data before uploading to Dell Technical Support. Lasso monitors and waits for the completion of each process and notifies the user of any failures during collection.

Dell may utilize the collected data for proactive maintenance services and Technical Support cases across various Dell products.
