4.5 Using the Policy Advisor on Windows
To run the policyadvisor script:
1 Open a Windows DOS cmd window and go to the directory where the policyadvisor
script is located. For example:
cd "C:\Program Files\3PAR"
2 Run the script.
policyadvisor [options] [<VV_name|pattern>...]|[<CPG_name|pattern>...]
For example:
policyadvisor –t r5 –ssz 5 –ha mag my_vvol*
This example examines all virtual volumes starting with my_vvol . The policyadvisor
script will display tuning suggestions for any virtual volumes that do not match RAID type
r5 , set size 5 , with magazine level availability.
In this example, the policyadvisor script will display tuning suggestions for virtual
volumes that:
◆ Have virtual volume names that start with the pattern my_vvol .
◆ Are not RAID 5.
◆ Are RAID 5, but don’t have a set size of 5.
◆ Are RAID 5, have a set size of 5, but don’t have magazine level availability.
3 Enter the name of the InServ Storage Server you wish to analyze, followed by a valid user
name and password. The user account must have Super or Edit CLI user class authority, and
access to all domains on the specified storage server.
For example:
system: <system name>
user: <username>
password: <password>
These system prompts may not appear if the Windows environment variables containing
these details were configured during the InForm CLI installation.
