Raising and Managing Support Cases

If you cannot resolve your issue on your own, and you have an active Business Support agreement for your product, you may raise a support case with OpenText Support for Micro Focus Products.

Important:

Please report only one problem for each case.
If a solution or workaround has been provided, and you encounter a further problem, open a new case with new details.

This allows us to assign the appropriate engineer to each unique issue, and allows for several engineers to progress cases simultaneously.

For high- and critical-severity issues, meaning either a production system is down or you are experiencing a major feature or function failure, call OpenText Support for Micro Focus Products at the appropriate telephone number listed on the Contact Support page.
