Please use my project Array-XRay instead.** \r\n\r\n## Purpose\r\n\r\nProvide an inventory of all the configuration of a VMAX-3 array, including :\r\n- SRP details\r\n- List of all the TDEVs\r\n- List of the WWNs logged on the array\r\n- List of the IGs and cascaded IG\r\n- List of masking views\r\n- List of port groups\r\n- List of SG\r\n\r\nThe inventory file generated by this tool is an excel file. New formats will \r\nbe added as needed.\r\n\r\n***At the moment, the only supported array's are VMAX-3 (including AFA models)\r\nwith UNISPHERE 8.4.***\r\n\r\nFYI: the current version of PyU4V support only VMAX-3 arrays, so the support \r\nof VMAX-2 arrays is not possible right now. I'll make maybe a custom version \r\nto change that. There is a lot of VMAX-2 still in the wild after all ! :-) \r\n\r\n## Dependencies \r\n\r\nThis tool use several module that you can find in the file requirements.txt.\r\nI use a embedded and modified version of the PyU4V module.\r\n\r\n## Usage\r\n\r\n```\r\n[jbrt@localhost]$ ./vmax-xray.py --help\r\nusage: vmax-xray.py [-h] [-p PATH] [-d] config\r\n\r\nVmax-XRay - Tool for Inventory a VMAX\r\n\r\npositional arguments:\r\n  config                config file\r\n\r\noptional arguments:\r\n  -h, --help            show this help message and exit\r\n  -p PATH, --path PATH  path to store the inventory file\r\n  -d, --debug           enable the debug mode\r\n\r\n```\r\n\r\n## Example\r\n\r\nThis example :\r\n\r\n```\r\n[jbrt@locahost]$ ./vmax-xray.py example.conf\r\nInitializing a Excel workbook (Vmax-000297500071.xlsx)\r\nBeginning of data extraction (Vmax SID:000297500071)\r\n- Extraction of SRPs\r\n- Extraction of TDEVs\r\n- Extraction of initiators\r\n- Extraction of masking views\r\n- Extraction of initiators groups\r\n- Extraction of cascaded initiators groups\r\n- Extraction of port groups\r\n- Extraction of storage groups\r\nEnd of data extraction (Vmax SID:000297500071)\r\n```\r\n\r\nWill produce this Excel file :\r\n![alt text](Excel_sample.png \"Example of inventory\")\r\n\r\n## Configuration file\r\n\r\nHere is the syntax of the configuration file needed by this tool :\r\n\r\n```\r\n[SID_NUMBER]\r\n    address = IP_ADDRESS\r\n    user = username_of_UNISPHERE\r\n    password = password (I hope you're not using the default one 'smc' ;-)\r\n``` \r\n\r\nYou can add all the VMAXs you need.\r\n\r\n## TODO\r\n\r\nThere is a lot of work ahead ! This is a first release of that tool. Many\r\nnew features will come depending on the needs. Here is some of ideas :\r\n\r\n- Adding support of the VMAX-2 arrays\r\n- Adding new inventory format (load data into ElasticSearch, why not ?)\r\n- Eventually, adding support of third parties arrays (like IBM FlashSystem) \r\n  Maybe with another tool, not specially Vmax-XRay... sounds logic ;-)\r\n\r\nFeel free to contribute if you want.\r\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fjbrt%2Fvmax-xray","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fjbrt%2Fvmax-xray","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fjbrt%2Fvmax-xray/lists"}
