asbuilt-reporter
v1.5.0
Generate customer-ready as-built reports in minutes — not hours.
No Python. No terminal. Just download, connect, and go.
Every deployment ends the same way — hours spent copy-pasting configuration into documents that still miss critical details.
Manual documentation eats into deployment time and delays customer handoff.
Every SE formats reports differently — no standard, no repeatability.
Critical configuration items get overlooked when collected by hand.
Purpose-built for the field — from first rack-up to customer handoff.
Automated data collection from the VAST REST API. A full cluster report generates in under 5 minutes — compared to hours of manual work.
VAST-branded PDF with executive summary, 42U rack diagrams, network topology, and health results. Plus machine-readable JSON for CMDB or scripted workflows.
SSH proxy hop for unreachable switches, Tech Port mode, graceful degradation when data is partial. Works on macOS and Windows — no Python install needed.
32 automated checks (26 API + 6 switch SSH) with remediation guidance. Include results directly in the PDF or export standalone for follow-up.
Browser-based UI launches locally — no server required. Live progress, cancel anytime, save connection profiles.
Quick Start tiles, Results Odometer with animated counters, and guided workflow cards.
Unified 5-step workflow: Discover, Place Switches, Generate Report, Health Check, Download.
Automate all post-deployment validation in a single pass — VNetMap, VPerf Sanity, support tools, log bundles, switch and network config backups. Run individually or execute the full suite with one click.
Browse all outputs by operation type — reports, health checks, network maps, and bundles.
Device catalog with custom images for accurate rack diagrams. Add new hardware as it ships.
Fine-tune report formatting, data collection scope, and output settings without editing YAML.
Every report follows the same VAST-branded template — consistent, thorough, and customer-ready.
