Check the Is-home flag of a network port

Wed, 29 Apr 2015 10:34:00 +0000

Today we announce a new check NetInterface which monitors the Is-Home flag of a network interface and sends an alarm if current-port differs from home-port. This enables us to monitor the output of the following CLI command in a continuous and automated way:

clu1::> network interface show -is-home false 
Logical    Status   Network . Current      Is-Home 
----------- -------- ---------- ------------ ------- 
upgradelif  up/up    10.24.33.82/24 clu1-02 e0a   false

Also refer to Enabling and reverting LIFs to home ports (library.netapp.com/ecmdocs/ECMP1196799/html/GUID-7865FB3E-F57B-4976-803D-A87F2F760342.html “NetApp Support Article Enabling and reverting LIFs to home ports” (not openly available any more)
