get-brocade
Retrieve a SAN Fabric's information from the brocade switches.
get-brocade.py <fabric_name> will retrieve the switchshow output, zoneshow output (from the first switch), and parse out the alias list from zoneshow. The alias list is in a convienient format for parsing with standard UNIX tools later. One huge feature of this: If it runs across an L-Port, the program will descent to 'portshow' to gather the WWN list for that L-Port, and do an alias match against it.
get-brocade.conf
The config file. This shows the switch DNS name => fabric name mapping.
In theory, there's no limit to the number of switches in a fabric, but the
data gathering is serialized currently, so it could be slow for very large
fabrics.
Ex:
switch1.domain.com => fabric_a
switch2.domain.com => fabric_a
switch3.domain.com => fabric_a
switch4.domain.com => fabric_b
switch5.domain.com => fabric_b
switch6.domain.com => fabric_b
defines two fabrics, each with three switches in them Switch names must be FQDN's
NOTE: This program requires paramiko to be installed somewhere in the python path. Otherwise, this should be fairly generic to python 2.4 or higher
