Storage snapshot size

Question

Hello all, We just started working with storage snapshot of our Unity XT 880. right now we have created a routine everyday that takes a snapshot of a consistency group of 500TB and keeps for 7 days. everything works fine but we need to know the exact size of the storage snapshots in order to be monitored. I found on a webpage the uemcli svc_storagecheck but doesn't return a consistent value of the storage snapshot (in a LUN test showed the full size of the LUN while in a test CG showed 0GB) thank you very much for a reply best regards   Nicola

Hello DELL-Sam L, thank you very much but this KB doesn't apply to what I need. the storage snapshot size is inconsistent with the uemcli /prot/snap show command, but always.

than kyou again.

best regards

Hello Nicola,

Here is the link to Dell Unity Family Unisphere Command Line Interface User Guide, and if you look on page 569 example 3 you can get the real time snapshot size used. https://dell.to/3Olc52m
