Before you call Support: Gather key information

The data and information you provide is used to troubleshoot the issue you are reporting.

For privacy reasons, we don’t make available to our support agents any user views that show user generated content. Thus, our support agents will not have access to all relevant aspects of the user’s view and context of a reported problem. To help resolve your issue quickly, it is critical that they are able to confirm and replicate the issue properly, and in a timely fashion.

The screenshots you provide enable our support agents to confirm the specific reported error or behavior as your users experience it. The exact error messages are helpful for us to quickly narrow the scope of the problem and speed up review of the system log files. They also ensure we clearly document the observed symptoms.

When submitting troubleshooting data to support, please ensure you remove any sensitive data, such as account credentials, government identification numbers, cardholder data, or other sensitive information.

We appreciate your work to include the detailed information in your support request. The complete data you provide enables us to identify the cause and solution to your issue as quickly as possible.

For any network latency issue, e.g. accessing mail.google.com, we need to see the outputs of the following commands executed by the affected user:

• nslookup mail.google.com
• nslookup mail.yahoo.com
• nslookup gmail.com

• ping -s 3 mail.google.com (Windows) or ping -c 3 mail.google.com (UNIX)
• ping mail.yahoo.com (Windows) (and stop after three results) or ping -c 3 mail.yahoo.com (UNIX)
• ping -s 3 gmail.com (Windows) or ping -c 3 gmail.com (UNIX)

• tracert mail.google.com (Windows) or traceroute mail.google.com (UNIX)
• tracert mail.yahoo.com (Windows) or traceroute mail.yahoo.com (UNIX)
• tracert gmail.com (Windows) or traceroute gmail.com (UNIX)

• ipconfig /all (Windows) or ifconfig -a (UNIX)

• External IP information (e.g. visit http://whatismyipaddress.com/)

Provide the following additional information for server errors in any application:

• Verify and include the exact date, time, and timezone that the user first experienced an issue.
• Verify that the issue still exists with every communication (since most server errors are temporary).
• How long has the issue persisted? (Issues are only escalated if error messages persist for more than an hour.)
• Try waiting half an hour/ one hour and try again. Does this help? (Most apps will automatically fail over after a few server errors, but this may take several minutes.)
• Include the EXACT error messages and/or status codes.

In addition to the general troubleshooting information above, click the link for your primary issue and provide the requested information.

  • Windows Vista, 7, 8, and 10: C:\Users\your-user-name\AppData\Local\Google\Google Apps Sync\Tracing\

Message from an SMTP server, fax, printer, scanner or copier not received

• Use this template for complex delivery cases where header information is not available. For example, if a message is sent from a printer, scanner, fax, copier, or server it will not have a header and, as a result, no message ID.

Troubleshooting steps before filing a case:

1. Check if sender is able to copy a third-party address (such as Yahoo, Hotmail, or AOL). If that address receives the message, you can use the message ID from that header to do an email log search in the Admin console. 
2. Check how the customer's machine, server, and application is connecting to Gmail, including the port used, and make sure this complies with the help center recommendations
3. Note that when using aspmx.l.google.com to connect, the customer can send messages only to internal users. For sending messages to external recipients, use smtp.gmail.com, which requires SSL support.
4. Check if the customer has a firewall that is blocking the connections.
5. Logs used by Google Support go back one week only, so make sure the test message was sent within the past five days.

Delivery issue - sending and receiving

• Did Google bounce the message? This can be confirmed by looking at the bounce message suffix to see if it has a -gsmtp tag affixed to it. If the bounce message contains a link to a help center article, follow the procedure provided in the article. If no article is provided in the bounce message, check the Google's Gmail help center support page for more general troubleshooting information.
• Check past cases in your support portal for a bounce message similar to the one encountered.

Recipient did not receive the message

• Run an email log search to view the IP address the G Suite server connected to in order to deliver the message.

For sending or receiving delivery failure, provide the following information:

1. Did you try the Email log search to see if the message was delivered or bounced? If so, can you provide a screenshot?
2. Is the issue intermittent or persistent?
3. What email client was used?
4. Were groups used as the recipients?
5. Provide message headers for affected messages from the last 5 days, including SMTP MessageId and delivery date & time with the local timezone.
6. If messages are bouncing with error messages, provide the full non-delivery receipt.
7. If the email log search shows message delivery errors and the recipient has not received the message, check to see if a forwarding rule or content compliance filter has been configured affecting message delivery.

Delivery issue - message delay

• Did the user migrate recently and import many messages? If so they might have to wait a few days for the queue to clear up.
• Check if the user has any kind of third party client that is making too many IMAP requests.

For issues with message delays, provide the following information:

1. Did you do an email log search to see if the message was delayed?
2. Are many messages affected by this issue?
3. Were groups used as the recipients?
4. Provide message headers for affected messages from the last 5 days, including SMTP MessageId and delivery date & time with the local timezone.
5. Provide email log search output if possible.

In addition to the general troubleshooting information above, follow these instructions to provide the requested information in the support case:

1. First, see if your issue is addressed in the Solutions for Calendar Interop issues article.
   If not, go to the next step.

2. Use the diagnostic tool at Calendar Interop tools to retrieve availability information for an Exchange user and a Google user. 

   1. Download the CSV output of any errors you get, and look them up in Calendar Interop error messages. 

   2. Provide the CSV file(s) in the support case.

3. Verify that Calendar Interop is enabled.

   1. Go to the Admin console  Apps   G Suite   Calendar   Calendar Interop management.

   2. Click Interoperability settings and select Enable Interoperability for Calendar.

4. (For a Google Calendar user checking an Exchange user's availability) If Google Calendar users have issues when trying to check an Exchange user's availability, but the troubleshooting tool doesn’t show an error: 

   1. Make sure that the Exchange user whose availability you're checking doesn't have Google Calendar enabled. User availability is often visible from the diagnostic tool at Calendar Interop tools but not in the Google Calendar web UI because that email address belongs to a Google user who has Google Calendar enabled. This might also be a consumer user.

   2. Follow the instructions at How to get a HAR capture to record the HTTP session of the Calendar issues. 

   3. Provide the details of one affected user and describe the issue in the support case. For example, "user1@solarmora.com can't see the availability of user2@solarmora.com," or "user3@solarmora.com's calendar appears available, although their calendar has an event at 4:23."

5. (For an Exchange user checking a Google Calendar user's availability) Run the following command from the Exchange Management Shell, and provide the output in the support case:
   Get-AvailabilityAddressSpace -Identity gsuite.domain.com | fl
   
   Replace gsuite.domain.com with the address space you configured during the setup process. Provide the output in the support case.

6. If you are using Exchange 2010: 

   1. Make sure that you’ve followed the additional steps in Set up with Exchange 2010.

   2. Run the following PowerShell commands on your Exchange server and provide the output in the support case. Replace gsuite.domain.com with the address space configured during the setup process.
      
      (Invoke-WebRequest https://gsuite.domain.com/autodiscover/autodiscover.xml -Method GET).Content
(Invoke-WebRequest https://autodiscover.gsuite.domain.com/autodiscover/autodiscover.xml -Method GET).Content
(Invoke-WebRequest https://gsuite.domain.com/autodiscover/autodiscover.xml -Method POST).Content
(Invoke-WebRequest https://autodiscover.gsuite.domain.com/autodiscover/autodiscover.xml -Method POST).Content
(Invoke-WebRequest http://gsuite.domain.com/autodiscover/autodiscover.xml -Method POST).Content
(Invoke-WebRequest http://autodiscover.gsuite.domain.com/autodiscover/autodiscover.xml -Method POST).Content

These commands ensure that the autodiscover XML is accessible by GET and POST requests from your Exchange server, over HTTP and HTTPS. The command output should be identical to the autodiscover.xml output you downloaded when setting up Calendar Interop. If it isn't identical or you see any errors, please correct them, and provide the output of the commands in the support case.

Before submitting a support case about G Suite Password Sync (GSPS), make sure you installed GSPS exactly as described in the configuration guide. Also, make sure you have followed the troubleshooting steps described in Troubleshooting GSPS.

In addition to the general troubleshooting information above, please provide:

• A step-by-step description of what you're trying to do, and where it is failing
• A screenshot of any error messages you're seeing
• Download the support tool and run it. The tool gathers all the information required to diagnose issues with GSPS. Attach the zip file it creates to your support case.
• If the issue is affecting specific users, provide an LDIF dump for one of them. This isn't necessary for GSPS installation issues.

In addition to the general troubleshooting information above, please provide:

• Microsoft Exchange server version and patch level
• Whether an admin account has been created on Exchange with Receive As rights to all users' mailboxes
• Number of accounts affected and some affected account names
• Log files. For details on where to find log files for G Suite Migration for Microsoft Exchange (GSMME), see Troubleshoot a GSMME migration. 

Review the information in Migrate from IBM Notes to G Suite and the G Suite Migration for IBM Notes Installation & Administration Guide.

In addition to the general troubleshooting information above, ensure that you:

• Verify that the system requirements are met, provide the Domino Server version, as well as G Suite Migration for IBM Notes (GSMIN) tool version (using latest version of GSMIN is recommended when starting the setup process)
• Attach full-screen legible screenshots of any error messages
• Provide example affected user names (check if they can log in to G Suite on the web)
• If the errors are happening at the document level, check the Migration Status view in each user's mail file for errors/status of each document migrated (Migration Status Calendar/Contacts/Mail)
• For high-level errors, investigate the Logs All by Site and Exceptions  Migration Errors (as well as other) views for any related logs (see Troubleshooting steps below if there are no logs)
• Investigate the activity log in user's profile document
• Provide actual logs as NSF files or exported as structured text (or screen shots if applicable):
  • Enable Record migration error details at the site level so the system can trap any migration errors in the Exceptions > Migration Exceptions view (XML output and Google response to HTTP POSTs are logged)
  • Enable Detailed Event Logging under the Advanced Tab of the relevant Site Profile (see the GSMIN Installation & Administration Guide for details). The Detailed Event logging database (gmail-feeder-#-log.nsf) is created for each feeder in the same folder as the GSMIN databases on the migration server. Note this can be detrimental on performance.

Troubleshooting

• Consult the Troubleshooting section of the GSMIN Installation & Administration Guide
• If there are no logs, this usually indicates that the gmail-feeder.ntf was not correctly signed before the feeders were created. To fix this, sign into the GSMIN database you created, as well as existing feeders and the two templates that are on the server "gmail-feeder.ntf" and "gmail-migration.ntf", with a user that has sufficient access permissions (we recommend the server ID, see the guide for details). There will be "agent execution error" messages on the Domino console as well in this case.
• If there are log documents but users are not being processed, you should be able to tell why by reviewing the logs and reading the entries
• Some reasons why users aren't processed are: mail files have quotas and the signer does not have server admin rights to remove them, users have the out-of-office agent enabled, signer does not have Designer or above access to the mail databases, or the migration server is not trusted by the mail server to access its files
