[Networker] Interrogate CAP of L700 via Legato?
2009-01-13 23:40:05
Hi there,
has anyone using the L700 Library
been able to interrogate the CAP to identify the contents?
I have posted this before, but I was hoping enough users would have upgraded
by now to see the problem for themselves and have a solution.
Basically the problem is that the "sjirdtag" command on Solaris 10
does not work with Legato > 7.3.x
So you cannot use the sjirdtag command in conjunction with a script
to scan the Element status of the slots, drives and CAP of an L700 device.
The only kludge I can see is to install the "personality" module into
an L700 and then SNMP walk the elements and hash them out of there
via awk/grep or Perl etc.
Shame on EMC/Legato for dumbing down the product by removing
functionality, even if it is a problem for them. I am hoping there
is some other way to interrogate the CAP contents without a 50Km
trip to a remote Datacentre.
Cheers.....
