Gathering troubleshooting data with the support script
If you are running OpsCenter on UNIX or Windows, you can use the support script to gather troubleshooting information for OpsCenter Server. The script collects Server logs, collects information about any data collection problems, and compresses the results into a zip file. This file can serve as a first-level information for the Support team in case of an issue with OpsCenter.
