Monitoring VPLEX virtual volumes(physical storage from VNX 5500)
Hi all
I am trying to set-up setup a monitor for virtual volumes in vplex using monitor create command. I am confused in how to specify a particular virtual volume as the target.
i used the command
VPlexcli:/> monitor create -p 30s -n VirtualVolumeMonitor -d director-1-1-A,director-1-1-B -s virtual-volume.ops,virtual-volume.read,virtual-volume.write -t ucsb-vnx-vwoppharmsql01_data
its giving an error :
monitor create: Evaluation of <
ucsb-vnx-vwoppharmsql01_data>> failed.
cause: Command execution failed.
cause: Failed to set value for option --targets.
cause: Could not find appropriate contexts matching '[ucsb-vnx-vwoppharmsql01_data]'.
here "ucsb-vnx-vwoppharmsql01_data" is the virtual volume name i want to monitor.
Please help... Thanks

Hi,
Try using the full path to the virtual volume. Something like: /clusters/cluster-1/virtual-volumes/ucsb-vnx-vwoppharmsql01_data

Hi
I am trying create monitors on VPLEX for Storage Resource Management monitoring tool - watch4net. I came across two different commands from CLI guide -> monitor add-file-sink and report create-monitors and i am not really sure what to use. Although i believe it wont impact the VPLEX if we have extra monitors created. Can someone suggest me on this
Thanks,
Damal
