Re: SSUS scripting & EVA disk location.
Indeed. I have 12 shelves.. :)
I haven't actually progressed with this any since I wrote the original request. I never really *did* get to find what I was looking for, and put it on the back burner for a while. Thanks for the response though.
Steve.

Re: SSUS scripting & EVA disk location.
Oky, I read this through again, and this is *exactly* what I was trying to do. I have raid sets, striped down the enclosures, and I would like to ensure that I do *not* have two drives in the same shelf.
I was hoping I could get the information on which shelf/enclosure each drive was in, so I don't get into the pickle described above.
I know it *can* be done. I've seen an HP Engineer run something which does precisely this, but after enquiring about the tool it turns out it was an internal thing that he can't give away - or somesuch.
Steve.

Re: SSUS scripting & EVA disk location.
If your running firmware 3010 or higher and you have Command View EVA you can locate those drives.
If you give me your email adress I can send you a little tools which you can run. If you send the output back to me I can generate a nice looking html file.

Re: SSUS scripting & EVA disk location.
There is there any way you can post the software and what you do to make it look pretty?

Re: SSUS scripting & EVA disk location.
Is this internal tool available to buy?
Either way. steve.lawrence@comcast.net is my e-mail address. I'd be grateful for any help regarding this.
Steve.

Re: SSUS scripting & EVA disk location.
They won't. I've asked my TAM, and his response is inline with your own. It's an 'internal' tool, and we cannot provide it to you.
Which quite frankly, sucks.
I actually care less about the tool. If it were available I'd buy it. If it's not, I'm sufficiently versed in programming to be able to extract the data and write my *own* tool. However, I can't find a way to *get* that data - even though it quite clearly exists. Documentation is sparse at best.
If I understand correctly, the 'extraction of data' is something which *is* available - the tool you spoke of to create the binary file?
What *isn't* available is the tool used to map that data into a pretty representation of the EVA. Am I correct?
You mentioned that I could run a tool you could provide, e-mail you the results and from that get a pretty html map? Is this still the case?
Steve.

SolutionIf all you want is to know the disks
location, you can indeed divine that from
the looppair and loopID. On our (12 shelf)eva the following formula works, I don't know if they are all wired up the same way:
bay=mod(loop_id,14)+1
enclosure=7*loop_pair-loop_id/14+1
(integer arithmetic)
I wrote a command procedure which reads the output of sssu "show disk full" and creates
an sssu script to rename all the disks in the
array to sensible names reflecting location.
