Re: XFS File System Monitor

[Rotem Ben Arye <rotem.benarye@xxxxxxxxx>]

HI , I'm not sure it will help here,  we  are working central storage with Netapp , EMC and others , 
The Using of XFS File system on volume , is expressed with an creation of XFS, as e.g :  mkfs.xfs.
 My question about what are the tools that could assist us to monitor XFS file system was in general.

Hello Rotem

We have received your email and wish to log your request. However we need to know the Serial Number (s/n) of your machine in order to do so.

The Serial Number is usually located on a white barcode label on the back of your machine.

Depending on your system type, you may also be able to determine the serial number by running one of the following commands:

1) "sysinfo -vv" (Irix)
2) "cat /proc/sgi_sn/system_serial_number" (Altix)
3) dmidecode |grep Serial |grep X  (Altix XE)
4) scash -p -c "dmidecode |grep Serial |grep X" (Altix XE Clusters with Scalimanage)
5) dmidecode  | grep "Serial Number" | grep Z (Altix ICE)
6) dmidecode -s system-serial-number (Altix UV 10)
7) From the OS, use the 'topology' command.  From the SMN, use the 'config' command.  (Altix UV 100 & UV 1000)
8) "wmic bios get serialnumber" from the command line (Windows 2003/2008)

Once we receive this information, we will be able to log a case.

Thank you in advance.
