Reporting in SSMC and data extracts?

[zzzzzxx1]

In the past we used to run a CLI command and extract data from out MYSQL reporting database which we gave to a third party vendor to crunch the data for us. Now that we have moved to SSMC, how can we extract similar data to give to the vendor. I believe the extracted files in the past were .ins files?

You didn't "move to SSMC", you moved to on-board System Reporter collection.
You'll need to look at the controlsr export -save -file command which creates a .TBZ file. See the HPE 3PAR OS Command Line Interface Reference manual for information about the controlsr command.
