AIX Support Center Tools provides information about widely used data gathering tools and recommendation tools that are used by AIX system administrators in conjunction with the IBM support center team. The gathering tools help reduce the amount of time spent during initial problem determination. The recommendation tools help provide health check reports or cross-product compatibility information.
Data gathering tools
zsnap
The zsnap utility delivers all the benefits of the standard snap command and captures additional debugging data in an easily understood format. IBM's world-class AIX support centers have teamed up to deliver a more fully integrated tool for data gathering, one that has already been proven to reduce the time needed to resolve customer problems. IBM recommends that you install zsnap before you call IBM technical support.

devscan
The devscan tool facilitates the debugging of storage problems by rapidly gathering a great deal of information about the SAN. It then displays the information in an easy-to-understand manner. You can run devscan from any AIX host, including VIO clients, or from a VIOS.

snap
The snap command is included with the operating system. Snap captures system configuration information for AIX and PowerHA. Product technical support centers regularly request snap output to identify and resolve problems. Snap output can be delivered to IBM in portable archive exchange format (pax).
