SMVI job status export to CSV

[jjones]

Is there a way to automate the export to a CSV file the status of SMVI jobs?

Specifically we are looking for the following

Client Name

Client IP Address

Vendor Job Type (backup, restore)

Start Date String

Finish Date String

Backup Kilobytes

Number of Files

Status (0 for successful, 1 for partial, 2 for failed)

We want to automate the export of this data on a routine basis for import into a 3rd party reporting system.  I asked a similar question for OSSV jobs out of DFM and got that answer.  I'm assuming that SMVI job status is not recorded or managed with DFM anyways so this data would have to come from SMVI?

Thanks!

SMVI logs some of the information like backup start/finish. But one would have to write a script to parse SMVI repository and logs and parse that info.

Hi

But we do have a logviewer tool that you can use to take a look at our logs easily.

You need to point the LogViewer tool to SMVI log file instead of the XML files generated from backup jobs. Typically the log file is located in folder <ProgramFiles>\NetApp\SMVI\server\log.

To answer your earlier question regarding the Logviewer location:

The LogViewer can be installed on different server than SMVI server. Just make sure it can open and read SMVI server log located on SMVI server.

thank you Ydk

well done.

[terryzolinski]

YDK, I am running this on a 32 bit windows workstation. I have copied the server.log to my local computer, so the resource in not in use. I am having this same problem where nothing appears, it just tells me how long the parse took to complete. I am running 2.0.1 P1.

Doesn't matter where I try to open this from, it won't open. I've tried loading the server.log directly from the live copy, no dice. Any advice would be appreciated as this doesn't work at all.

Thanks,
