We have implemented (but not yet released) a change in the library responsible for the call files. Until now all call-files have been saved directly within the directory calls/. The number of files within this directory can grow quickly up to 30.000 or more which could have some performance-issues with the filesystem …

Should the amount of instances exceed the maximum possible value, the plugin would start a second call at runtime in order to collect …
So you would like to monitor the latency of your NetApp device? Then you must be careful: in addition to the “latency” that usually refers to the “per volume latency”, the latency of a LUN can also be measured, which is not to be confused with the latency of the volumes on which the LUN is …
