## Description {#description}

The MinIO Client [`mc support`](#command-mc.support) commands provides tools for analyzing deployment health or performance and for running diagnostics. You can also upload generated health reports for further analysis by MinIO engineering.

> [!WARNING]
> **Important**
>
> The `mc support` commands require an active [MinIO SUBNET](https://min.io/pricing?jmp=docs) registration.
>
> [`mc support proxy set`](/reference/minio-mc/mc-support-proxy/#mc.support.proxy.set) and [`mc support proxy remove`](/reference/minio-mc/mc-support-proxy/#mc.support.proxy.remove) are exceptions, as you may need to set up a proxy to complete the deployment registration.
