arrayconfig output on screen

If you are using putty couldn't you just enable the logging to text file for that session and copy the output from the text file?

it is interesting to see you dont have permission on /tmp. what is the OS?

Hello,

There is no way to do what you are attempting with the array config -capture command, it can only print output to a file. See the Navisphere Command Line Reference Guide on Powerlink:
http://powerlink.emc.com/km/live1/en_US/Offering_Technical/Technical_Documentation/300-003-628_A10.pdf

The arrayconfig -capture command queries the storage system for its
configuration along with I/O port configuration information. When
issued, the command will capture a storage system¿s essential
configuration data. The information is formatted and stored on the
client workstation.
This generated file can be used as a template to configure other
storage systems or rebuild the same storage system if the previous
configuration is destroyed.

I wonder if the getall with appropriate switches will accomplish what you want?

The getall command is a superset of the getagent command. If you
type the getall command without switches, the CLI displays all
values. With switches, the CLI displays only the values specified.
Note that the getall command and any of its arguments return all
information pertinent to the current Navisphere release. The amount
of this information may change (usually it increases) with each new
Navisphere release. This may affect your custom command scripts
that use getall.
The command displays information for the agent running in the SP
(the SP agent). Values for irrelevant display fields appear as NA.
Some information is not displayed if the feature is not activated or
not supported. For example, SAN Copy items a

-array
Displays only information about the storage system and its
hardware components such as fan and link control card (LCC).
This is a composite of information displayed by the getarrayuid,
arrayname, getcrus, and initialiazearray commands.

naviseccli -h -user -password -scope 0 getall

I read the manual, but I think that maybe someone know how overcome this limitation.
I need all available infromation about CLARiiON so getall return only a part of my needs (It doesn't return infromation about clock for example) and anyway the parsing of arrayconfig -capture output is much more simple.

The problem is that I have /tmp that have very little size (less than 1MB) so I cannot save the file to it.

How big is your home directory, can you dump it there ?

There is currently no way to display the arrayconfig command on the screen via naviseccli.

You can run the arrayconfig command from any server that has Navisphere Secure CLI installed and IP connectivity to the CLARiiON's management ports. You do not need to run it on a server that is connected via fibre or iSCSI.

All accessable directories have similar size (we run a script that mustn't harm the host so we get very small size for home, tmp, etc).
