Monitoring SAN space

[Arkady]

I need to monitor available space on the SAN attached to ESX hosts. I do not see any alert options via Virtual center.

Thank you in advance.

You'll probably have to look at some type of script using vdf or the like. I don't know of any prepackaged tools that are cheap, but a script should suffice.

VI Powershell tool kit for windows beta was just released:

getting the data is dead simple. You would just have to wrap some code around it to notify and check on a specified frequency.:

get-viserver YourServerName; get-datatstore

Hope that helps!
