Hi

Most of this can be done using system reporter. You can create your own custom reports or use the the 'web queries' options to generate tables/charts as needed. If you script it you can grab the csv file each web query/report creates and use that data.

I've put a daily cpg use table in excel format (from 1st Jan 2012) example below.
# daily cpg space

http://WEBSERV/cgi-bin/3par-rpts/inserv_perf.exe?reptype=vstime&maxgraphs=8&comparesel=used_space&begintsecs=1325376053&endtsecs=&txtfromselcpg=&selcpg=--All+CPGs--&selraidtype=all&seldisktype=--All+Disk+Types--&charttab=table&chartlib=gdgraph&charttype=lines&graphx=&graphy=&timeform=absolute&graphlegpos=&ldspaceunit=GiB&report=cpg_space_time&category=daily&selsys=INSERV&seldomain=--All+Domains--&tableformat=excel

Change WEBSERV to the webserver where you run sys reporter and INSERV to your 3par.

I havent found a 'status' report option but would be interested to know if anyone has.

There is a health check report available thru SPOCC. Basically login via web browser to your SP IP address using default credentials (User: 3parcust Password: 3parInServ).

Then go to Support and fire up a Health Check. It takes quite a while to complete.

You can also use full service account, but you should be rather cautious with it: User: spvar Password: 3parvar.

This is a sample output for the health check (summary):

I'm unable to connect to my spocc. It just times out. Is there anyway I can check if spocc is up and running through cli?

[Richard Siemers]

spocc runs on the "service processor" not the storage nodes, that is a 1U server that comes with the storage that handles phone home and remote support operations. It will have a different IP address than your storage. It's also when the techs plug into when they come onsite to do hardware swaps.

Yet more default passwords we should go change now.

Hello All,

Just found this site what a great resource. I am trying to run the checkhealth command from the CLI and it is telling me I don't have Permissions? I know i can run it from SPOCC but would rather use the CLI.

I am logged in as 3parcust on version 2.3.1.

Any help I would appreciate it.

Cheers,
Daniel
