Command to find free SATA thick device capacity on DMX?
What should be the command to find free SATA thick device capacity on DMX?
Its easy for me to segregate the thin SATA and Fibre capacity.
But Im not sure whether Im using SATA drives for standard devices.
Any option to do that?
I prefer a symcli command

do you actually have SATA drives in DMX3/4 ..or these are low cost fiber channel drives (LCFC) ?

i don't have sata in my DMX3/DMX4, look at man pages for symdev ..there is got to be something that you can use to query that specific device type.

You can identify your SATA drives in the symdisk list -v by knowing the disk group(s) that your SATA drives belong to. you may also find "Speed (RPM)" in the output and the SATA drives will be 7500 RPM.
If you know the disk groups your SATA drives are on you can use the symdev command to filter by disk group.
symdev list -disk_group 1 | egrep -iv "tdev|vdev"
This command should get you close to what you want.
