One of the first reports we were sent was from a customer, who received an error message when using the collector for the ShelfBay Check . We weren’t able to reproduce the error quite …
First signs that Clustermode collectors are reaching their limits in larger environments are emerging. In their current form, the collectors are not able to finish collecting and storing all the data within 60 seconds. Therefore, we have optimized the collectors for volume and _col_snapshot _for experimental purposes. …
A newly developed check LunState will be included in version 3.0.14 of check_netapp_pro. This check monitors all LUNs on the filer and sends an alarm notification in case one of the LUNs is offline. Of course it is possible to define exceptions as well. Let us demonstrate this in two short examples: The following …

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 - …
The recently introduced function --discover of the NetApp perfdata getter has been updated with a new function: From now on, the labels of array counters will also be displayed. This enables a more focused search for values that are to be used for the monitoring process and trend analysis.

The check VolumeAutosize sends a warning message, if the actual size of a volume approaches the maximum size configured in DataONTAP. The switches –include and –exclude work the same way as in other plugins: they enable all, a few or …
