Manually Collecting Data For CLARiiON Device

Before manually collecting, make sure that the following prerequisites are met:
  • Navisphere CLI will not be installed by default on your system, you need to download it from remote ftp site and install it. In case of successful installation from Add-ons option, Navishpere CLI grabs and report executable will be available in %ALLUSERSPROFILE%\Dell\Lasso\Packages\EMCAddOn\NavisphereCLI folder.
  • Path of the Navisphere CLI is set to %ALLUSERSPROFILE%\Dell\Lasso\Packages\EMCAddOn\NavisphereCLI before executing the commands.
To collect the information for CLARiiON manually:
  1. Determine the agent revision version using one of the following commands: 
    • navicli -h SPAIPAddress/SPBIPAddress getagent
    • naviseccli -user <username>  -password <password> -scope 0 -h SPAIPAddress/SPBIPAddress getagent
    The version 6.x, where x is the release version of Navisphere CLI, is displayed.
  2. Get SPcollect by using the following command.
    • For releases 19 and later: 
      naviseccli -user <username>  -password <password> -scope 0 -h SPAIPAddress/SPBIPAdress spcollect
    • For releases 6 to 18: 
      navicli -h SPAIPAddress/SPBIPAdress spcollect -messner
    • For releases earlier than 6, Lasso does not support validation or collection .
  3. Check the progress of SPcollect using the following command:
    • For releases 19 and later: 
       naviseccli -user <username> -password <password>  -scope 0 -h SPAIPAddress/SPBIPAddress managefiles -list
    • For releases 6 to 18: 
      navicli -h SPAIPAddress/SPBIPAddress managefiles -list

    This command lists *data.zip files, where * is the current system date on the array. The command spcollect initially creates *_runlog.txt file, that gets listed when this command is executed. Continue to check the progress of the SPCollect (using this command) until *_runlog.txt is deleted and corresponding *data.zip file is created.

    Copy the created *data.zip file to the current working directory using one of the following commands:
    • For releases 19 and later: 
      naviseccli -user <username> -password <password> -scope 0 -h SPAIPAddress/SPBIPAddress managefiles -retrieve -file <*data.zip>
    • For releases 6 to 18: 
      navicli -h SPAIPAddress/SPBIPAddress managefiles -retrieve -file <*data.zip>
  4. Capture resume data using the following command:
    • For releases 19 and later: 
      naviseccli -user <username> -password <password> -scope 0 -h SPAIPAddress/SPBIPAddress getresume > ./SPIPAddress.resume.txt
    • For releases 6 to 18: 
      navicli -h SPAIPAddress/SPBIPAddress getresume > ./SPIPAddress.resume.txt

      This command copies the *resume.txt file to current working directory.

    You may need to connect using Navisphere Manager and use the web GUI to collect the SPCollect. To do this, connect to the SP using the IP Address in the web browser. Right-click on the SP and select SPCollect. Use the File Transfer Manager to transfer the SPCollect to the system.
    • NOTE: When the collection of a Storage Array times out, go to the SAC.properties file in the installation directory and increase the polls to be allowed. Example: total.polls.allowed = 70 which is 50 by default.
