  • 1.  Configuration report for VSP E Series

    Posted 12-23-2021 08:15
    Hi, All!

    Can I get configuration report for VSP E590 or VSP E790 without SVP?

    If I'm not mistaken raidinf (Config_Report_CLI) works with SVP only.

    Any solutions accepted. Thank you :)

    raidinf requires port 5443 open on a SVP to produce reports.
    GUM/CTL does not have a corresponding listening port.

    You can use the embedded CCI and use raidcom scripts to create config reports.
    This will require some programming on your part in either Shell Scripts or Python.

    Hi, Vinod!

    Thank you very much for your solution. There is no guarantee that after updating microcode, your script will work and provide full information including new features.

    However, if we talk about scripts, I recommend using Platform REST API built into VSP E Series (more flexible solution, any OS and etc...). Perhaps to integrate with your products, this requires using programming languages like Java/C/C++/C#/Python to issue REST commands, not just Shell Scripts and cURL knowledge.

    You can also write a Service for HOC Automator, you can take any existing template as a basis, but here you need to know a little bit of JavaScript.

    But I really want to get a ready-made solution for such simple feature as Сonfiguration Report that every user of the system needs. And yes, it should be supported by Hitachi.

    Hello

    You can also deploy a virtual SVP if you need some of that functionality.

    Hi Team
     SVP functionality is not supported in VSP 590 & 790 ..only supported in E990 in previous version of SVOS. With the release of 9.8 now virtual SVP is supported on E590,E790 & E990.

    Hello

    As @Bharathiraja Perumal, said this is supported from SVOS 9.8, so ensure you have at least this version or the latest GA version installed. Below some guides on how to set this up on Hyper-V or Vmware:
    Hyper-V: Installing the SVP software on a Microsoft Hyper-V Server 2012 R2 Virtual Machine 
    Vmware: Installing the SVP software on a VMware ESXi host

    You can read the release notes of SVOS 9.8 here:
