Support Report During Unpairing
When you unpair a workload, the VEN creates a local Support Report for diagnostic purposes in case you need a record of the VEN after it is uninstalled.
On Linux/Unix, the generated Support Report is saved to the /tmp directory. On Windows, the generated Support Report is saved to the C:\Windows\Temp directory. If a there is an existing Support Report in this directory, it will be overwritten with the new one.
