vnx tool for pushing server_stats to graphite
build your crosscompile environment http://dave.cheney.net/2012/09/08/an-introduction-to-cross-compilation-with-go
then do a
go-linux-386 build vnx2graphite.go
because the controlstations are 32-bit OS you have to do a 386 build.
after this just copy the conf, the binary and the shell script to
nasadmin@your-control-station:~/vnx2graphite/
you have to configure four options in the vnx2graphite.conf:
host=<hostname or ipaddress of graphite>
port=<carbon port>
timeout=<timeout in seconds>
basename=<graphite namespace e.g. com.company.your.vnx>
if your config and binary are at $HOME/vnx2graphite/ you can use the vnx2graphite wrapper script. It expects that the nasdb is mounted at /nas. Otherwise take it as an example and write your own script.
$HOME/vnx2graphite/vnx2graphite.sh <stats e.g. nfs> <server name e.g. server_2>
Use cron to ensure the script will run every minute. If you need it faster just do a loop with sleep but be aware of timeouts. The default timeout for vnx2graphite is 10 seconds.

I tested this script with the 5300 model and the 5500 model
