Data Growth Report - Simple way

[jayems]

Hello All,

I am reaching out to see if there is any analysis tool that can calculate our growth rate to determine when we will be out of space.  I have been reading these forums and it seems it is possible.  I don't know where to begin as I am fairly new to the NetApp technology.  I much rather have the system do the analysis for me as it may be more accurate and faster than what I can do on paper.  We are in clustered mode with a 4 node cluster and 2 HA pairs.  ONTAP is 8.3.1

Thanks,

~J
