Communities:
- To extract version/build number of MUX, NSX vibs
- To extract vCenter virtual appliance version info
- To extract NSX Manager version info
- To extract protected VM version info like thin agent, vsepd status
- To extract EPSec library version
- To extract Windows thin agent build/version info from Windows(PVM)
- To extract Linux thin agent logs for troubleshooting
- To extract logs from ESXi host for troubleshooting
- Automatically discover vCenter, NSX Manager, PVM (Windows, Linux), SVM IPs
- To check if vCenter, vSM, PVM (Windows) and PVM (Linux) are in the same network

- VCVA 5.5 or later
- NSX Manager 5.5 or later
- ESXi host 5.5 or later
- Linux thin agent (SLES11, SLES12, RHEL7)
- Windows thin agent

-Copy the files into a Linux machine such as PMC (Partner Management Console) or any Linux VM on the same network as the partner’s SVM or PMC
- Run the NSX_Debug.sh script with required options as below:
# ./NSX_Debug.sh -h
-H {To print MUX build, NSX vibs, checking status on vsip,vsfwd,netcpa, etc.}
-v { To print vCenter version info }
-V { To print NSX manager version info }
-G {Extract Protected VM version infos like thinAgent, OS, vsepd status, etc.}
-l {To print EPSec library version}
-w {Extract Windows thin agent build/version info from Windows (PVM)}
-t {To extract logs from ESxi host for troubleshooting}
-S <PVM(Linux) IP> {To extract Linux thin agent logs for troubleshooting}
-s -A {Automatically discover vCenter, NSX Manager, PVM (Windows,Linux), SVM IPs}
-N {Check to make sure that all the components such as vCenter, vSM, PVM (Windows), PVM(Linux) are in the same network}
-M {Prints the network info of the Linux VM where NSX_Debug.h script is running}
