EVA vraid space

gabbar — Mon, 02 Mar 2009 16:12:26 GMT

is there a way to find out the amount of space occupied by vraid1 volumes and vraid5 volumes seperately in a particular disk group or on the whole EVA???

Not directly, but you can extract a list of the existing vdisks on the EVA with the SSSU Command LS VDISK FULL

Then you can search for:

redundancy=...
allocatedcapacity=...
diskgroupname=...

Thanks, I know that one.. but we have got hundreds of vdisks on the EVA and calculating them is taking too long.. any other ideas??

If you write a script the scans the output of the sssu command 'ls vdisk full', you can have it collect the total LUN sizes of all the vraid1 vdisks and multiply by 2. Do the same for vraid 5 and multiply by 1.25. This will give you a very close estimate to the amount of space being used by each type.
