For the record, this sounds like a *great* and handy idea. Linking FilerView and the powerful ONTAP CLI = win/win!
As far as how to get it done, contacting either your TGA (if you have one), or your sales rep or other "account rep" type person and asking them about submitting an RFE would be a good way to start, it seems.
I know I will ;)

How would one go about submitting a suggestion to NetApp?
I was thinking it would be nice, if while working in the Filer View GUI, your operations selected would build a command line "example"
Say for instance you wanted to make a new volume from the GUI.
You go to the volume section and you click Add.
The wizard pops up.
click next
Select your volume type (flexible)
click next
Name the volume (vol1)
Select language (en_US)
Decide if you want to use UTF-8 or not (no)
click next
select the aggregate (aggr0)
set your space guarantee (volume)
click next
choose volume size type (useable)
choose volume size (100GB)
set snapshot reserve (10%)
click next
now it shows all the options you picked in the text box.
Create New Volume
Volume Name: vol1
Aggregate Container: aggr0 (14TB, raid_dp,mirrored)
Volume Size: 100 GB
Snapshot Reserve: 10%
Language: English (US) (en_US)
Space Guarantee: volume
I want it to add the command line example of all the choices you picked. So it would look something like this
Create New Volume
Volume Name: vol1
Aggregate Container: aggr0 (14TB, raid_dp,mirrored)
Volume Size: 100 GB
Snapshot Reserve: 10%
Language: English (US) (en_US)
Space Guarantee: volume
CLI Commands used : vol create vol1 -l en_US aggr0 -s volume 100g
snap reserve vol1 10I couldn't find a CLI command to specify if that 100GIG was useable or total space, but I hope you get what I'm going for.
This might help people become more proficient in the CLI interface, and also help build commands for scripting.
Thoughts, Ideas, comments?
