"With NetApp being the storage provider of choice for enterprise tier one and mission-critical applications, our customers demand innovative support to maintain high system availability and performance. NetApp Global Support focuses on proactive support to prevent problems, but when disruptions do occur, it’s equally as important to identify and resolve them fast and effectively.

"The newest tool in our Support Automation Suite does this by allowing, with customer approval, remote transfer of system diagnostic information without placing burden on customers. This magic is based upon an RLM card integrated into the Data ONTAP® operating system, with an Axeda diagnostic agent surrounded by custom code, and integrated into both our workflow and our support systems."
