Diasable DFM Alerts for SnapManager/SDW cloned LUN´s and vclones

christianmaier — Thu, 05 Jun 2025 06:15:48 GMT

Hello @all,

can i diasble DFM Alerts for luns and volumes that was createt from SnapManagerSQL/SnapDrive for SQL Database verification when they are going offline and destroyed after the verification prozess from snapmanager/snapdrive ?? we have a lot off false positive messages every day, it would be great when i can disable these alerts.

I am happy for every feedback...

Best Regards

Chris

the alerts for the luns ann clones specific to SMSQL\SD cannot be disabled as there is no specification for those SnapDrive created LUNS and volumes.

thanks, Prabu

Hi Chris,

You are basically hitting the know issue. Check the Bugs online http://support.netapp.com/NOW/cgi-bin/bol?Type=Detail&Display=300668

All I can suggest is, configure your events at group level instead of Global group. And exclude the group with just the SnapManager Volumes.

I would hope there would be a solution to adjust the LUN monitoring interval to exceed the verification run time for the SnapManager Volumes Only, not the entire Global Group. Or have DFM be smart enough to recognize *sdw_cl* clones and exclude from alerts!!

I suggest you add your case to the bug that I mentioned so we can get some priority on the same.

Agreed here.

Would prefer a way for DFM/OnCommand Core to ignore anything with an *sdw_cl*

Hi Will,

This issue is currently being addressed, and will be available in a subsequent release.

Also the point to note here is, its not just sdw_cl but also sdu, snapcreator etc for both lun and volume clones.

Is there any temporary fix for this alert till the updated oncommand unified manager release.

kryan — Tue, 08 Apr 2014 20:17:19 GMT

The only workaround is provided in the bug details, however I have not heard any reports of anyone using it

http://support.netapp.com/NOW/cgi-bin/bol?Type=Detail&Display=300668

Adjust the LUN monitoring interval to exceed the verification run time, this can be accessed through the following menus

Setup menu > Options > Edit Options: Monitoring > LUN monitoring interval, Fiber Channel monitoring interval, and SAN Host monitoring interval

http://now.netapp.com/NOW/knowledge/docs/DFM_win/rel371/html/software/opsmgr/luns10.htm

The release containing the fix is due out in the next few months.

Thanks,

Kevin
