[quote=Benton Crook]i can use get-ucstechsupport with the following cmds straight from the guide and it works fine. Get-UcsTechSupport -PathPattern 'C:\${ucs}-techsupp-ucsm.tar' –UcsManager -RemoveFromUcs -TimeoutSec 600 Get-UcsTechSupport -PathPattern 'C:\${ucs}-techsupp-chassis.tar' -RemoveFromUcs -TimeoutSec 600 -ChassisId 1 -CimcId 1 but if i try to execute the following cmd Get-UcsTechSupport -PathPattern 'C:\${ucs}-techsupp-fex.tar' -RemoveFromUcs -TimeoutSec 600 -FexId 1 i get warning message below for about 10 secs or less WARNING: Waiting for the Tech Support file to become available (this may take several minutes). then i get the following error [color=#ff0000][/color] Get-UcsTechSupport : V1CL16140-FI:Failed to create the TechSupport file.

My guess it that fex tech support collection is taking time and the process is timing out. Let me know if this happens consistenly, I will have someone take a look at it. Thanks, Vikrant
