The VMware vCenter Support Assistant™ is a vSphere Web Client plug-in that collects support bundles on а regular basis, analyzes the environment, and sends alerts and recommended fixes for potential problems.

The vCenter Support Assistant also provides an easy-to-use, timesaving application for filing and managing support requests and for generating and uploading vSphere and vCenter Server support bundles and other files to VMware technical support. VMware recommends that you deploy vCenter Support Assistant alongside the vCenter Server in the management cluster.
