Today I was asked if it were possible to add a switch to multi-instance checks, such as the check for volumes or aggregates, that returns a list of instance names which could then be used for other purposes (e.g. creating checks using the op5 API). I am leaning towards creating a separate script for this feature. $ print_netapp_instances.pl -H <filer> -o volume|aggregate|disk|...
Example: **$ print_netapp_instances.pl -H sim83 -o volume** vol0 vol1 vol_bak01 vol_bak03 vol_sales vol_contracts ...
The output would include a newline-separated list of instance names. One could keep the output format flexible, if needed, using --format=list|csv|… Feedback is appreciated, by E-Mail
or comment.
