DataONTAP 7.x will no longer be supported by check_netapp_pro. Nevertheless, some checks might still work relatively well. For example, the aggregate usage can be monitored with the check Usage, if the Server/Node name is set to the host name (--vserver|--node|-s). Here an example: $ ./get_netapp_7m.pl -H 10.25.0.22 -o …
Our newest release 3.2.0_02 (unstable) will be available very shortly and includes the following changes:
A new check: check_netapp7_fcpstats – to identify crc-errors on FCP adapters. This check is designed as a _direct check _(without a collector), meaning that warnings can be sent immediately. For the time being, …
The Testing-Release 3.2.0_01 will be available 14.09.2015. Should you be interested in receiving this non-stable release for testing purposes, please send us a message at Distribution .
from the CHANGES: New and improved SnapMirror has a getter for 7-mode New Check for 7-mode: check_netapp7_snapvault New Check for …
In order to facilitate the replacement of a broken hard disk, Disk Check will soon be able to display model, type, manufacturer and rpm using the switch --show_disk_inventory=always|non-ok|never Example of a simulator: $ ./check_netapp_pro.pl Disk -H sim821 --show_inventory_info=always NETAPP_PRO DISK OK - 14 disks …
UsageTrend , our new feature that was introduced in the last RC for 3.2.0, has raised a number of questions:
The check is saying that the history store is not present. Where can I find it?
The -stm switch for the getter activates the history store setting. Of course, the corresponding object (aggregate|volume) has to …
I received the following question:
If we understand correctly, the blog entry and the microdelta_example.cfg explain that the parameter –delta=10 [–tolerance=5] overrides the interval (e.g 3 mins) set by the getter by collecting the data twice during the 3 minutes?!
That is not entirely true. The switch …
Sometimes it is not possible to identify volumes that accommodate a LUN by name only - for instance, if there is no apparent naming convention or if the names doesn’t give any indication of this fact. In such cases, it can be quite tedious to configure the checks for volume usage because the thresholds for LUN …
Host adapter such as 0a/0b (Fibre Channel, Serial Attached SCSI and parallel SCSI) can now be monitored in the same way that network adapters can be monitored using PerfLif and PerIf. This check is called PerfHostadapter . Example: $ ./ check_netapp_pro.pl PerfHostadapter -H sim83n1 NETAPP_PRO PERFHOSTADAPTER CRITICAL …
Up until now aggregates and volumes could be monitored in order to determine their disk usage. The Usage check was designed for this purpose and can be easily configured to fit your needs. However, there was no way of predicting when an aggregate would reach a critical level, or in other words, how many days it would …
Microdeltas is an experimental feature for measuring performance with a resolution smaller than 3 minutes. In the next release of Monitoring Plugins for NetApp, we introduce a new feature that provides ways to measure performance with very small deltas (in the time scale of seconds). All you have to do is set a …
