Vmax Host Capacity Reports

symmaskdb list capacity -host

will give the entire list.You can put script on this and you get your results.

Can you help me with a script?

have you attempted to script it yourself ?

select a scripting language that you are familiar with (bash, perl, python, powershell) and try to parse output from symcli commands.

No I have not attempted it.  I have a Windows SE host.  Not sure where to start.

This might help get you started:

using scripting to run symcli commands

Deb,

I have a script that will produce a report showing capacity information for each Storage Group in a VMAX -- I haven't tested this on Windows, but it might be a good starting point for you. You'll need to have Python installed on your host (version 2.7.6 should work), along with the 'prettytable' Python module. I generally run this from an offline host (see Offline SYMCLI Commands).

Please use below commands may help you ;-

symaccess -sid XXX list -type storage  -detail / symsg list ( if you device sizes is same you can get the details by using any of the commands)

Else :- Please use Unisphere for VMAX ( in the array you will have option to get the consolidated report for all the storage groups along with the capacity/storage assigned to them)

I'm curious about using the command in your example.  When I try to run it, I get:

astro# symmaskdb -sid 3775 list capacity -host 10000000c9a1a55a

Feature is not available for this microcode level.

astro# symcli

Doh!  Thanks much!  Looks like I'll be working on Sean's script in PowerShell....
