Introducing Wafl: the new Consistency Points

Perviously, the check ConsistencyPoints could be used to monitor the performance based on cp (consistency points) per second. The new check Wafl incorporates this function and is now available in check_netapp_pro.``` $ ./ check_netapp_pro.pl Wafl -H cm1 -z cp_count -l ‘back-to-back CP’ NETAPP_PRO WAFL OK - 2 file systems checked. wafl (cluster1-01:kernel:wafl): 0.0/s cp_count (back-to-back CP) wafl (cluster1-02:kernel:wafl): 0.0/s cp_count (back-to-back CP) | wafl=0/s;10;20;0; wafl=0/s;10;20;0;

The [help page and examples for the new Wafl check](http://www.netapp-monitoring.info/en/help/Wafl.html "help walf check") are available on netapp-monitoring.info. Because of this change, further WAFL counters can be integrated more easily. The following command returns a list of all WAFL counters on your filer: get_netapp_perfdata.pl -H your-filer -o wafl –discover=counters

The list is really long and includes, for instance: -—————————————————————————– total_cp_msecs Milliseconds spent in CP (millisec, delta, diag)

inode_cache_hit Inode cache hit count per second (per_sec, rate, diag)

inode_cache_hit_nodes Inode cache hit nodes count per second (per_sec, rate, diag)

inode_cache_hit_tohead Inode cache hit moved to head count per second (per_sec, rate, diag)

inode_cache_miss Inode cache miss count per second (per_sec, rate, diag)

inode_cache_miss_nodes Inode cache miss nodes count per second (per_sec, rate, diag)

inode_eject_time Instantaneous residence time of the last inode ejected in milliseconds (millisec, raw, diag)

inode_list_cnt inode list counts (none, raw, diag) Labels: NOSTATE, PRE_VALID, DBUF, DINO, CP_WAIT, NVLOG_WAIT, DIRTY_WAIT, USEFUL, UNUSED, RECYCLE, PRE_ALLOC, HAS_CLEANER, HIPRI_DBUF, HIPRI_DINO
