Complex expansion for port group

Hi

I want to get graphs of the ports in a port group. The "easy" way would be to simply select the ports and chart the graphs. I would like to get the ports from the port group in SRM but have no idea how to do the expansion. I saw there is the filed dirnport that has the director and port. How do I expand those and select the ports itself with the metrics that are important to me?

Thanks

Andy

    Hi Andy,

    There is a nice example of Masking views to port under : All>>EMC VMAX>>Arrays Summary>>device>>Masking Views

    The key is to start from : parttype="Access" then do a complex expansion on dirnport to match the parttype="Port"

    You can find a simplified version of that report here : Array to Masking View Definition.xml
