This article describes the basic steps required to collect support data from a Kubernetes-based PowerFlex Manager Platform (PFMP) system and the PFMP installer. Support data is collected using a standalone, single-file utility, pfmp_support. As such, the utility's executable can be copied to and run on the host from which support data is to be collected. Using this utility does not require a functioning PFMP. As such, support data can be collected during PFMP installation or when the PFMP UI is inaccessible.
