Example
The following example shows how to view a monthly report of the number of computers that have run the vFabric components
from September 1, 2012 to October 04, 2012:
prompt> versions-over-periods.bat -startDate 09/01/2012 -endDate 10/04/2012 -period MONTHLY
The output will look something like the following:
Period: MONTHLY
Component Name,Component Version,Dates,Minimum Number of Machines,Maximum Number of Machines,Average Number of Machines
VMware vFabric tc Server,2.8.0.RELEASE,"Sep 1, 2012 - Sep 30, 2012",0,0,0
VMware vFabric tc Server,2.8.0.RELEASE,"Oct 1, 2012 - Oct 4, 2012",0,1,0.53
Apache Tomcat,7.0.30,"Sep 1, 2012 - Sep 30, 2012",0,0,0
Apache Tomcat,7.0.30,"Oct 1, 2012 - Oct 4, 2012",0,1,0.31
VMware vFabric Web Server,5.2.0,"Sep 1, 2012 - Sep 30, 2012",0,0,0
VMware vFabric Web Server,5.2.0,"Oct 1, 2012 - Oct 4, 2012",0,1,0.37
VMware vFabric tc Server,2.6.2.RELEASE,"Sep 1, 2012 - Sep 30, 2012",1,1,1
VMware vFabric tc Server,2.6.2.RELEASE,"Oct 1, 2012 - Oct 4, 2012",0,1,0.68
VMware vFabric Spring Insight,1.5.1.SR3,"Sep 1, 2012 - Sep 30, 2012",1,1,1
VMware vFabric Spring Insight,1.5.1.SR3,"Oct 1, 2012 - Oct 4, 2012",0,1,0.68
The output includes the name of the component and versions, the period of reporting, and the minimum, maximum, and average
number of computers (physical or virtual) on which the component was running. Note that the report includes information about
open-source components, such as Apache Tomat.
The following example is similar, but limits the output to the mycluster cluster rather than the entire vCenter server.
prompt> versions-over-periods.bat -startDate 09/01/2012 -endDate 10/04/2012 -period MONTHLY -cluster mycluster
