Creating a configuration report using the Report Configuration Tool

You can create a configuration report by using a command prompt when you use the Report
Configuration Tool. By preparing a script file that contains a series of commands and scheduling
a task in Windows to execute the script at regular intervals, you can automate the creation and
the deletion of the configuration report.

Preparing a script file

Before creating the configuration report, you will need to write a series of commands in a script
file. When you run the Report Configuration Tool, the commands in the script files execute
sequentially and then create or delete a configuration report. See

“Report Configuration Tool

command reference (raidinf commands) ” (page 132)

for a list of commands.

Two examples of scripts are shown below. Refer to these examples as needed to create a script
file that suits your needs.

“Example script for creating a configuration report”

“Example script for downloading a configuration report”

Example script for creating a configuration report

This script logs the user in, deletes a configuration report, creates a configuration report, and logs
the user out, using the Report Configuration Tool.

For each command except the logout command, this example performs three retries at intervals of
2 minutes, assuming that communication errors and other errors can occur. In addition, the delete
report

command is executed with the -fill option before the add report command, so that

the script does not terminate when 20 configuration reports accumulate in the SVP.
