Question

Issues importing a saved vscn file. Workload counts are reset to default 70 per site.


Forum|alt.badge.img

Imported several RVTools files (4.71), after the load and save, able to import into SC with 1,837 workloads counted over my 10 sites.  Exported to a vscn file to work on later, came back and imported the data back into a blank tool.  After the import the workload counts were not updated for each site (had 10 sites), so the workload count was 700. The default in the blank was 70 workloads, appears that when i imported, either that field was not updated with my counts, or my workloads were not backed up into my vscn file export. 

 

Need some help to decipher this issue.  I can supply my vscn file for review.

David and team,

Thanks for correcting the export/import issue in 1.3.4!   I was able to export and import with no issues. 

I would like to request a few enhancements.  Let me know if I should open a new thread or not.

 

  1. add the VM (workload) counts into the calculated report, into each site.
  2. add ability to group sites together, tabs?  I have a customer with multiple clusters in the same datacenters, would be great to group these sites together for separation.  
  3. add option for these separate tabs to add up all the storage requirements.
  4. add the ability to rename the tab with a city or datacenter title?

Please reach out to me if you have any questions or need more details.  Thanks!

Hi Randy, Some comments on your asks.

  1. add the VM (workload) counts into the calculated report, into each site.
    • I’ve added it to the list.
  2. add ability to group sites together, tabs?  I have a customer with multiple clusters in the same datacenters, would be great to group these sites together for separation.  
    • You can do this today. Currently the result groups by sites. If you are importing your clusters as separate sites they will show as such. If you’re putting them all to the same site, it will aggregate as such.

  3. add option for these separate tabs to add up all the storage requirements.
    • Same as pt 2
  4. add the ability to rename the tab with a city or datacenter title?
    • The locations breakdown takes the defined/custom name of the location as it stands today.

 

Cheers,

David
