Record All Information
◆ Client hardware type and operating system level, if a client is involved.
◆ Storage units being used, if it is possible that storage units are involved.
◆ If it looks like a device problem, be ready to supply device information, such as
the types of robots and drives along with Media Manager and system
configuration information.
◆ Software patches to the products that were installed.
◆ Service packs and hotfixes that were installed (Windows NT/2000).
◆ What is the definition of the problem as described earlier in this chapter? Copies of
logs or core dumps (if any) can also be required.
◆ Have you had this problem before? If so, was there a successful resolution and what
did you try that time?
◆ Has the configuration been changed recently and, if so, what was changed?
◆ If necessary, can you communicate with technical support through ftp, email, or fax?
This can be useful for sending things such as copies of logs.
“Problem Report Information” on page 5 lists the information you need and also provides
methods for gathering information.
