EMC Grab

EMC Grab is a utility that is run locally on each host and gathers storage-specific information (driver version, storage-technical details, etc). The EMC Grab report creates a zip file. This zip file can be used by EMC support.

You can download the "Grab Utility" from the following locations:

When you've downloaded EMCgrab, and stored in a temporary location on the server like /tmp/emc, untar it using:
tar -xvf *tar
Then run:
/tmp/emc/emcgrab/emcgrab.sh
The script is interactive and finishes after a couple of minutes.
