OnTap Powershell Cluster-Wide efficiency report

System Manager GUI (ontap 9.1) reports cluster-wide efficiency on its dashboard and I need to report this value to a 3rd party monitoring tool, but am having trouble finding how to calculate this value using DataONTAP Powershell plugin or OnTap CLI.  Commands I've tried so far all calculate at the volume level but then I'm confused which values I should sum.

Ben -

 

Maybe if you shared which cmdlets you're using and the outputs we'd be able to help you easier ?

 


I hope this response has been helpful to you.

Thanks Eugene.  I'm using "get-NcEfficiency" from powershell and "volume efficiency show" from OnTap CLI.  I've looked at aggr level or node level commands but none seem to include efficiency information.  If I have to sum up logical and physical values at the volume level and calculate a ratio from there that is fine, but I'm not sure which values to use:

For my purposes I'll just average all volume efficieny percentages and morph the output into a similar ratio.  The value doesn't quite match what System Mgr reports because it my calc doesn't take into account thin snapshot / clone space savings but it tells specifically space savings by Dedupe & Compress (I think).  This powershell code seems to work:

 

$volEff = Get-NcEfficiency | Select EfficiencyPercent
$volEffAvg = $volEff.efficiencypercent | Measure-Object -Average
$volEffRatio = [math]::Round((1/($volEffAvg.Average/100)),2)
$volEffOutput = $volEffRatio.ToString() + ":1"

 

Thanks all,
