Using Lasso
Lasso compiles information for all the devices in the Storage Area Network
(SAN). It also includes company and site contact information. You can save
this information as a configuration file (.xml format) for later use. Lasso
collects data for the selected devices and generates a report that can be
uploaded to Dell Technical Support site.
This section provides information to use Lasso to collect data about various
storage devices in your Storage Area Network (SAN).
