Blue Diamond: Customer diagnostic data upload instructions

Question & Answer


Question

Blue Diamond: Customer Registration and diagnostic data upload instructions.

Answer

Blue Diamond clients require special handling of Salesforce Case diagnostic data.

NOTE: Email exchange between clients and support should be done with ECuRep email services but ensure there are no attachments or inline data included to avoid any security exposures.

In order to be able to upload data to Blue Diamond, a user must first register to use Blue Diamond. To register you need to go to this link.

https://msciportal.im-ies.ibm.com



You will be prompted to confirm you are not a robot service.



If you do not have an account you can click on 'Don't have a User ID?' and follow the instructions for registering and obtaining credentials.




Follow the registration instructions for obtaining a User ID.




Once registered, the user from then on can sign in and provide credentials to log on and upload data.

There are two recommended options to upload data to the secure FTP server for Blue Diamond.

1. Directly from the IBM i using QMGTOOLS.

2. Data can also be uploaded to the secure FTP server using this link.

See https://msciportal.im-ies.ibm.com/help/ for further upload options such as FTPS or SFTP
 
Clients must be registered in order to be able to upload data. The above URL will allow new users to register and existing users to log in.  Once logged in clients can change their password or select the upload button to transfer diagnostic data to the Blue Diamond FTP server.

Example welcome screen:




NOTE: Much like ECuRep, HTTPs transfers are limited to 2Gb in size, so anything larger will require SFTP (secure ftp).
