How do I get an assessment?
Simply go to https://mri.broadcom.com, create an account, and select the tile for the SYSVIEW Software Solutions Report. You will download the MRI toolkit, which contains the JCL and scripts required to collect your SYSVIEW configuration and feature usage information into a plain text file that you can review, if you wish, prior to uploading the data to the MRI system.
After that, simply upload the data and the MRI system will generate your assessment for you.
What do I do if I have questions about my assessment?
If you have trouble running the toolkit or uploading the data to MRI, our support organization is ready to assist you. You can open an issue at https://support.broadcom.com.
If you have questions about the assessment results, use the "Ask an Expert" link, which appears on every page of the SYSVIEW Software Solutions Report. This link will allow you to email the SYSVIEW team, and we will be happy to answer your questions, or even meet with you and walk through your assessment with you to help you understand the assessment and its recommendations.
