Submitting a support case

To help you troubleshoot problems when they arise, you can contact with IBM Support by opening support cases.

What to do before submitting your support case?

Some problems require a support case, but we have solutions already documented to specific problems. Look for relevant information in the Known issues, or in the Troubleshooting section. IBM also offers interim fix packs which might solve your problem, refer to Downloading iFixes for more information.

What to include in your support case?

Providing IBM® support with all the information to understand, locate, and reproduce a problem will allow for a faster resolution and less back-and-forth between yourself and the support team. To ensure the IBM® support team can assist you, consider the following items when writing your case:

  • Provide a full description of the issue. Example: what behavior is expected and what is wrong, under what conditions the problem occurs.
  • Reproduce the issue if applicable and be prepared to share the steps.
  • Provide the exact wording of all error messages related to your issue.
  • Include relevant logs and attach any screenshots that demonstrate the issue. To learn how to review operation logs, see Reviewing operation logs.
