How to display the total sum of all snapshots from multiple Netapp

ITExpert — Wed, 04 Jun 2025 09:43:04 GMT

Hello everyone,

I would like to know how much space is occupied by Snapshot Copies on each of my NetApp.

I have multiple NetApps, and the only method I currently find is to log in to each NetApp, select each volume, note the occupied space of the corresponding snapshots, and in the end, add them up only for one NetApp.

Is there a way to overcome this issue with PowerShell or with the Active IQ API?

What I would like: I would like to have a list where I can see how much space is occupied by snapshots on a NetApp. Additionally, I would also like to access historical data of the occupied space by snapshots on the NetApps.

storage aggregate show-space -> from this command you can get Snapshot Reserve used & used% for all the aggregates in the NetApp.

this command needs to be included in the script - sorry I am not sure on scripting

Thanks for your prompt response. However, I do not want the Snapshot reserve but rather the Snapshot Capacity.
