capacity of TDEVs created over time
Hello All:
Can someone please point me in the right direction using Unishere for VMAX or SYMCLI to report on the amount/capacity of TDEVS created over time. I know that total actual and consumed disk is readily available but looking for information on TDEVS created over time. Similar to when you issue the command symcfg -sid 1234 -pool -thin -gb list -detail you see the SUB %.......what is the make up of this SUB % over time so i can gauge the amout of disk being provisioned month by month using an EMC tool.
Thank you in advance.

All control operations (device create, map etc) are logged for audit purposes. The audit data can be viewed with the symaudit command.
symaudit -sid xx -start_date mm/dd/yyyy list -v
The above command provides lots of detail, including device numbers. You can trim down theh output by adding additional switches to the symaudit command... eg -function_class.
You should get exactly what you need out of the audit log.

Thank You so much as this is a great help.
I can do something like this: symaudit -sid 1234 -start_date 02/01/2014
list -v -function_class base -action_code create |find /i "devices:"
to list all devices created during month of February. Now, if it were to
contain capacity information, that would be ideal.
Thanks again

Perhaps you can use excel or similar to match the list of symdevs you got from the audit output with the output of the 'symdev list' command (which does contain capacity).

Since this has device ids you can run a symdev against the dev id and extract the information you want.
