Create Sysinfo Files for Multiple Filers

CPLECLERCQ — Thu, 05 Jun 2025 06:43:17 GMT

Hello,

we just want to get daily Sysinfo-File from multiple filers.

I started with this

foreach ($filer in Get-Content e:\dfsbackup\Netapp\filers.txt) { Connect-NaController -Name $filer;

Get-NaSystemInfo

Get-NaOption

Get-NaNetActiveConfig

Get-NaNetInterface

Get-NaNetVif

Get-NaNetRoute

Get-NaNetVlan

Get-NaVol

Get-NaCifsShare

Get-NaSnapmirror

Get-NaNfsExport }

Out-File e:\dfsbackup\Netapp\ <-- and here is my Problem !

I want a file for each filer and every day.

I try a lot but I think something is blocking me .

Thanks for any advise

Claus

Hey Claus,

How about something like.. .

$outputFolder = "e:\dfsbackup\Netapp"            
foreach ($filer in Get-Content e:\dfsbackup\Netapp\filers.txt)             
{            
    $file = "{0}\{1}_{2}" -f $outputFolder, $filer, (Get-Date -UFormat "%d%h%y")            
    Connect-NaController -Name $filer            
            
    Get-NaSystemInfo | Out-File -FilePath $file -Encoding ascii            
    Get-NaOption | Out-File -Append -FilePath $file -Encoding ascii            
    Get-NaNetActiveConfig  | Out-File -Append -FilePath $file -Encoding ascii            
    Get-NaNetInterface | Out-File -Append -FilePath $file -Encoding ascii            
    Get-NaNetVif | Out-File -Append -FilePath $file -Encoding ascii            
    Get-NaNetRoute | Out-File -Append -FilePath $file -Encoding ascii            
    Get-NaNetVlan | Out-File -Append -FilePath $file -Encoding ascii            
    Get-NaVol | Out-File -Append -FilePath $file -Encoding ascii            
    Get-NaCifsShare| Out-File -Append -FilePath $file -Encoding ascii            
    Get-NaSnapmirror  | Out-File -Append -FilePath $file -Encoding ascii            
    Get-NaNfsExport | Out-File -Append -FilePath $file -Encoding ascii            
}

Thanks

looks better .

But I got this error message:

At C:\Users\axxxxxx\AppData\Local\Temp\2\8e4faf37-77ca-4563-9bde-4b94f2751fc2.ps1:7 char:32

+ Get-NaSystemInfo | Out-File <<<< -FilePath $file -Encoding ascii

+ CategoryInfo : OpenError: (:) [Out-File], NotSupportedException

+ FullyQualifiedErrorId : FileOpenFailure,Microsoft.PowerShell.Commands.OutFileCommand

For each command.

Any Ideas ?
