You can create support tickets directly from Uplink to request technical support from VAST Data Support.
Create a support ticket from the Tickets tab or from any other Uplink UI page that offers this function. For example, if you want to create a ticket for a specific alarm, you can go to the Alarms tab and use the Create ticket option from the Actions menu for that alarm.
The Tickets tab lists all existing support tickets for your clusters. This display can also be accessed from any page of the Uplink UI by clicking the button in the top right corner of the page.
Note
The count of tickets shown on the button includes only new and open tickets.
For tickets that were created in Uplink for a specific VAST object, such as a CNode, the Component column shows the corresponding object. For other tickets, this field is not populated.
