PyPowerstore : how to retreive Free space and disks

Hi @Olivier2000fr ,

The get_appliances() in configuration.py returns details of the appliances in a cluster. The UT's for the consumption is added here https://github.com/dell/python-powerstore/blob/main/PyPowerStore/tests/unit_tests/test_appliance.py .

Please do let me know if there is any other information that you are looking for.

Thanks,

Jennifer

Hi Jennifer,

Thanks for your reply, but I am not finding my info.

What i am looking is 2 Things.

Thing 1 :

List of all drives (Size / position / ID).

Thing 2 : 

Free space, used space, provision space for an appliance.

Concerning the details of an appliance, I used the following code and I am not finding my info :

print(conn.config_mgmt.get_appliances())

print(conn.config_mgmt.get_appliance_details('A1').keys())

 (I have had a look to the full outpout of the get appliance details, with with no luck so far

Output : 

[{'id': 'A1', 'name': 'PowerStore-3T-Bottom-appliance-1', 'model': 'PowerStore 1000T'}]
dict_keys(['id', 'name', 'service_tag', 'express_service_code', 'model', 'drive_failure_tolerance_level', 'nodes', 'ip_pool_addresses', 'veth_ports', 'maintenance_windows', 'fc_ports', 'sas_ports', 'eth_ports', 'software_installed', 'virtual_volumes', 'hardware', 'volumes'])

=> under nodes you only get name of the 2 nodes and no other info

=> under hardware I am finding list of ID's 

=> under sas_ports : 4 id's.

Regs,

Olivier

Hi @Olivier2000f

The list of all drives can be obtained using the /hardware API.

For appliance capacity in the /metrics/generate api , the space_metrics_by_appliance has physical_total and physical_used (used space).

Invoking these apis is currently not supported from PyPowerStore SDK. We will look into it.

Thanks,

Jennifer
