You may try on the GUI - under File system page - where it lists all the file system and their percentage usage - right click on a open space at the top of the page and select "export data".
This is save all the file systems with their total space and % utilization to csv file - which you can convert to an excel file.
However, this may not give the exact usage number (in terms of MB or GB) as the percentage utilization is considered not the MB/GB number - but if you are not too worried about exact numbers, this may help. On the excel file you may create a column to calculate the free space available on each file system.
If you want exact file system usage and don't want to do it in GUI -you can run the command for each FS (or script them with all file system name one time)
nas_fs -size .
Others may have some more suggestion... Regards, Sandip
That's interesting. I wouldn't have thought it would export all the filesystem stats together. Very cool.
I was really looking for the trend data (under the Usage Statistics tab). The export only works on a per-filesystem basis, and having to click thru the 'Select a filesystem' and then export it 30 times is a drag.
Any way to get the Usage Stats out at once for all filesystems?
In the statistics page - you have the option to choose Individual file systems or All file systems on individual data mover or all data movers (right clicking on the graph and select stats) - but you can not collect the data for all file systems individually as this is a time trend data.
However, to get the % utilization of each file system which I referred in my earlier post - go to the "File System" page - It lists all the file systems on all data movers (or you may select a single data mover) - do not select any specific file system -but right click on the Top pane (where it says Show file systems for - all data movers/server_2 etc) - and select export data - this will create the CSV file for all file systems with their % utilization as you see on the screen. Once you convert it to excel you can add more columns with calculation (formula) to extract Used capacity or Free Capacity in GB etc. Please note that the csv file stores the storage capacity in MB - convert it to GB if required.
You may consider looking at Celerra Monitor - but you will not get any option to capture or export data.
