Can I view data reduction ratio per vdisk or per VM instead of the whole Storage Container?

Question

At title - I would like to see how a particular VM is performing with dedupe and compression if possible? Cheers,Steve

I’ve been doing a bit of digging on this and found you can get per vdisk info but it’s not very useful.

You need the vdisk ID which I found doing:

vdisk_config_printer | grep -B 15 VMDKNAME | grep vdisk_id

Then stats on that actual vdisk is found using:

curator_cli get_vdisk_usage lookup_vdisk_ids=xxx

Overall container stats are better using this: curator_cli display_data_reduction_report

I found also the stats can take a day to update!

Cheers,

Steve
