nSANity Diagnostic and Configuration Data Collector 1.1.14

A nice tool to collect diagnostics from FAS Storage systems but also:

 

                    Windows 2003 and 2008 hosts

                    VMware ESX hosts (excluding i variants)

                    Linux hosts with kernel 2.6

                    Solaris hosts

                    AIX hosts

                    HP-UX 11i hosts

                    Brocade switches

                    McData switches (EOS, EOSn)

                    Cisco switches (IOS, NXOS and SANOS)

                    QLogic switches

 

Use the following command line to collect data from FAS storage systems:

 

        c:\> nsanity ontap://root:*@storage1

 

This command will prompt for the root password, the * can be replaced with the root password in clear text (which is not recommended)

 

Use the extract option to get the information split up in multiple files and directories:

 

                c:\> nsanity –x zipfilename.gz

 

Download the Windows version

 

                               Or

 

Download the Linux version

 

Note: The download requires a NOW account!
