Introduction
Lasso is a Windows-based client and server utility that automates the
collection of logs and configuration from servers, disk arrays (EqualLogic,
PowerVault MD-Series, and EMC), Fibre Channel switches (Brocade,
McData, and Cisco), tape libraries, Ethernet, and FCoE Switches.
After Lasso collects the data, it parses the data into XML and HTML formats
that is packaged along with the collected data and encrypted. The collected
data is saved as a .zip file on the local system. Optionally, you can enable
Lasso to automatically upload the report to Dell Technical Support.
Benefits of using Lasso:
•
Evaluate the data collected from various devices in the SAN to
troubleshoot problems in storage devices.
•
Determine hardware, software, and firmware versions to check
compatibility, and upgrade existing equipment.
This guide provides an overview of the Lasso tool, the installation details, and
