How to get the Enclosure stack cabling cascade we have?

Hello there

I have 2 remote Storage with like 17 enclosures each with FC connections. We are planning to add a few more on different racks, in order to do that I need to see our current state and cabling to see where we can add them (because rack space and cable sizes).

I want to have the cabling between controllers and enclosure written down, but the Topology View in the DSM is kind of a mess to follow, will take me a lot of work get it and probably some errors writing that down.

There is any way with Powershell or other method to pull out that information?, Need to see which port and slot is every cable connected starting from the Controller.

I am open to creative ideas :)

(I am 5000 miles away from them)

Hello_MatiasRuiz_,

DSM or visual are the only two ways to map your cabling.  There is no way to use power shell or any other tool that can gather the enclosure details.

Please let us know if you have any other questions.
