I would like to parse and extract useful information from several Netapp commands output such as sysconfig, uptime and so on.

I had already done it on Netapp Clustered Mode (C-Mode) because set command made my life much easier with this kind of sentences:

  • Custom delimiter character:

    set -showseparator '!';

  • Unlimited terminal lenght.

    set -rows 0;

  • Show all fields

    set -showallfields true;

However, set command does not exist in Netapp 7-Mode. ¿Does any one know something similar to modify the terminal length, units, field separator?

This is the version I have in hands:

3250-01> version
NetApp Release 8.1.2P4 7-Mode: Fri Apr 26 19:57:25 PDT 2013

There is no similar functionality in 7-mode. You have to parse the output. It's not too bad for some commands (like df or version) but others have formatting, and it gets very messy (like aggr show_space and vol status)

The closest you get is to make API calls and parse resultant XML. That's a bit more complicated, but I've got some example code of how it might work.
