We are not looking at implementing ECC at this time. So, I was looking for something that can make use of the Navisphere Analyzer and the other native CLARiiON tools.
I've heard of people trying this using naviseccli commands, but not with any real success.
Remember that you would need to constantly poll the array (maybe every 60 secods), collect the data, stripe out the pieces that you want and generate an alert if a value was exceeded.
WillSanders, In lieu of not using ECC, you may just want to start with doing a end of day analysis of the nar files by extracting the data using naviseccli. I find that it is useful to have a process that looks at the performance after the fact and then uses that data to trend, it can provide a lot of value, rather than a lot of alerts constantly getting generated for many reasons. (this is more of an editorial then an answer to your question:-) )
Yeah, what I was thinking about doing instead of real time monitoring is writing a Perl script to review daily NAR files. We already collect NAR files once a day, so that part is already in place. My current Perl script reviews a NAR files and puts the data into Excel spreadsheets based on SP, LUN, and disk using averages and maximums over set time blocks (currently 2 hours per block). However, I haven't expanded it to point out "problem" areas yet. I was just hoping that there was a way to do more real time monitoring and alerts.
In the script you need to to use the function system and call naviseccli analyzer -archivedump and trasform your .nar in cvs or xml format file . Regards Pierluca
