actually there is a much easier approach . Email the NAR files to your EMC SE and ask him/her to generate an miTrends report for you. Excellent report with a lot of good stats in it, too bad it's not available to customers.
It comes bundled, as part of the installer, a 90 day trial license (doesn't require hunting down a separate license you decide it is appropriate for your company) . Arguably you can have it installed in a matter of minutes and under an hour have your first set of reports to include FAST Cache statistics which you originally inquired about.
1) Under "Documentation" in the above portal, review the "VNX Monitoring and Reporting Version User Guide" (v1.1 is the latest which was recently released)
2) Under "Downloads", select the installer for your OS of choice
- Windows Server 2008 R2, Windows Server 2012, or a Linux (Red Hat or CentOS) dedicated server
NOTE:As you will read, naviseccli is required and is a separate download and can be obtained by searching for it by name on support.emc.com:

In addition to what was mentioned, despite not being free, you could also consider: VNX Monitoring and Reporting
https://store.emc.com/Solve-For/STORAGE-PRODUCTS/VNX-Monitoring-and-Reporting/p/VNX-SPEC-SOFT-001-1Q13-0037#6-link
The portal dedicated to it on support.emc.com is as follows:
