How to get qtree-ID in Operations Manager (5.x)

klmi — Thu, 05 Jun 2025 06:22:49 GMT

Hi,

we are currently working on a monitoring replacement to get all filerrelevant data for our reports from Operations Manager 5.0.1 (former DFM) instead of SNMP.

Two things we are missing here:

QTREE ID from a qtree on the filer
We tried to get the "qtree-id" with the API-Element: "qtree-list-info-iter-next - qtree-id".
It looks like the this qtree-id is connected to the internal Operations Manager ID of this qtree, but this has nothing to do with the qtree-id shown in "quota report" on the filer.
We would need the ID on the Filer for mapping on Quota-Alerts (SNMP-Traps from filer, contains qtree-id, not qtree name) for our External Trapnotify - script.

filer> quota report
                                 K-Bytes             Files
Type       ID    Volume    Tree  Used      Limit     Used    Limit   Quota Specifier
----- -------- -------- -------- --------- --------- ------- ------- ---------------
tree         *  back003        -         0         -       0       - *
tree         1  back003  unix 91038634496 125829120000   59923       - /vol/back003/unix

Global System Status from Filer
Before we got this over SNMP ($OID_misc_GlobalStatus, OID: 1,3,6,1,4,1,789,1,2,2,4 + 25). Do you know any way to also get these values directly from Operations Manager.
Only way i have seen to get with Ontapi SDK - SNMP-Query over "api-proxy" from Operations Manager to Filer, but i need a more effizient way (without proxy Request)

Any Feedback here is highly welcome.

Many Thanks in Advance,

Klaus

Hi Klaus,

Pls upgrade to 5.0.2, as its the current GA release and fixes a important security vulnerability that existed in 5.0 and 5.0.1

QTREE ID from a qtree on the filer
We tried to get the "qtree-id" with the API-Element: "qtree-list-info-iter-next - qtree-id".
It looks like the this qtree-id is connected to the internal Operations Manager ID of this qtree, but this has nothing to do with the qtree-id shown in "quota report" on the filer.
We would need the ID on the Filer for mapping on Quota-Alerts (SNMP-Traps from filer, contains qtree-id, not qtree name) for our External Trapnotify - script.

That's right, what you get from qtree-list-info-iter is the internal dfm sybase database unique identifier.

There is no way in DFM to get the id that you get in a quota report. As you said, you can either user the api-proxy or run the dfm run cmd and get the same.
