Syntax

All-WorkloadDomains

Publish-StorageCapacityHealth [-server] <String> [-user] <String> [-pass] <String> [-localUser] <String> [-localPass] <String> [-allDomains] [-failureOnly] [-outputJson <String>] [<CommonParameters>]

Specific-WorkloadDomain

Publish-StorageCapacityHealth [-server] <String> [-user] <String> [-pass] <String> [-localUser] <String> [-localPass] <String> [-workloadDomain] <String> [-failureOnly] [-outputJson <String>] [<CommonParameters>]

Description

The Publish-StorageCapacityHealth cmdlet checks the storage usage status for SDDC Manager, vCenter, datastores and ESX hosts, in a VMware Cloud Foundation instance and prepares the data to be published to an HTML report or plain text to console. The cmdlet connects to the SDDC Manager using the -server, -user, -pass, -localUser, and -localPass values:

  • Validates the network connectivity and authentication to the SDDC Manager instance.
  • Performs checks on the storage usage status and outputs the results.

Examples

Example 1

Publish-StorageCapacityHealth -server [sddc_manager_fqdn] -user [admin_username] -pass [admin_password] -localUser [local_username] -localPass [local_user_password] -allDomains

This example will publish storage usage status for SDDC Manager, vCenter instances, ESX hosts, and datastores in a VMware Cloud Foundation instance.

Example 2

Publish-StorageCapacityHealth -server [sddc_manager_fqdn] -user [admin_username] -pass [admin_password] -localUser [local_username] -localPass [local_user_password] -allDomains -failureOnly

This example will publish storage usage status for SDDC Manager, vCenter instances, ESX hosts, and datastores in a VMware Cloud Foundation instance but only reports issues.

Example 3

Publish-StorageCapacityHealth -server [sddc_manager_fqdn] -user [admin_username] -pass [admin_password] -localUser [local_username] -localPass [local_user_password] -workloadDomain [workload_domain_name]

This example will publish storage usage status for a specified workload domain in a VMware Cloud Foundation instance.

Example 4

Publish-StorageCapacityHealth -server [sddc_manager_fqdn] -user [admin_username] -pass [admin_password] -localUser [local_username] -localPass [local_user_password] -workloadDomain [workload_domain_name] -outputJson [report_path]

This example will publish storage usage status for a specific workload domain in a VMware Cloud Foundation instance and saves it as JSON under the specified report path with filename <timestamp>-storagecapacityhealth-status.json.
