Working with ScaleIO REST API using PowerShell - Part 3

As you all know disk drives are the most important and basic building blocks of a storage system. In order to ensure data availability, the disk drives in your storage system should always stay healthy. Unhealthy drives not only cause risk to your data but also contribute to degraded performance. In this article, I will show how to query and get disk health-related information in a ScaleIO cluster using REST API and PowerShell. 

Please refer my previous posts for API authentication, token generation and 'Invoke-RestMethod'.

#Query all devices in the ScaleIO cluster

$all_devices = (Invoke-RestMethod -Uri "https://192.168.11.15:443/api/types/Device/instances " -Method Get -Headers $ScaleIOAuthHeaders)  

#Select necessary properties and sort

$all_devices = (Invoke-RestMethod -Uri "https://192.168.11.15:443/api/types/Device/instances " -Method Get -Headers $ScaleIOAuthHeaders) | select sdsId, storagePoolId, name, deviceCurrentPathName, errorState, deviceState, ssdEndOfLifeState, temperatureState, aggregatedState  | sort sdsId | ft -AutoSize

#Sample output

Hope this was helpful. Please refer to ScaleIO 2.5 API reference guide for more details. Cheers!
