Calc Disk Storage

1) Is there a way to calculate the storage assigned to a particular server regardless of vendor.

2) Is there a way to calculate the storage assigned to a particular server if the storage is on an HP XP array?

3) Does anyone have a script to do this?

Might find a script here:

See the links in the second link here for more archives of wonderful scripts.

Remember, the system has to see the disk to count it.

Watch for alternate paths causing double reporting.

The array administration program should have a report or two built in.

Re: Calc Disk Storage

There is no simple way to calculate the amount of storage available in a server. You can use diskinfo on each of the device visible to the host,but will have to take out redundant paths to the LUNs.

You can use syminq or xpinfo that does a simple SCSI inquiry and give you sufficient information.

Do you have CommandView installed ?> -you can use CommandView to figure out the total diskspace available in the array and total allocated to a particular host group.
