NetApp - Harvest install issues

SnrSysAdmin — Wed, 04 Jun 2025 13:49:24 GMT

Hi,

Following the install options from: NetApp Grafana, carbon, harvest etc installer <pdf>

Everything goes with no issues until i get to:

chmod 755 /etc/init.d/carbon-cache

Where i receive the following error:

chmod: cannot access â/etc/init.d/carbon-cacheâ: No such file or directory

Is that .pdf from NetApp not accurate or something went missing along the lines?

Trying to set this up on CentOS 7

Thanks!

How did you install Graphite? This guide is for Debian based distributions.

It looks like graphite isn't fully installed, or the system init files aren't installed.

An alternative is to use NAbox, that contains everything

If i remember correctly the carbon-cache init script is included with the installer, i copied it manually to the /etc/init.d directory.. but i have to look it up for you as it is a while ago i installed it..

try finding it with

find / -name carbon-cache

otherwise you can get it from https://github.com/graphite-project/carbon/blob/master/distro/redhat/init.d/carbon-cache

This is something I recently tested for a customer :

# THIS MIGHT BE DIFFERENT FOR AN ACTUAL RHEL

# See http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EPEL#How_can_I_use_these_extra_packages.3F

yum install -y http://epel.mirror.constant.com/7/x86_64/Packages/e/epel-release-7-11.noarch.rpm

# This should work :

yum install -y graphite-web python-carbon

Edit /etc/carbon/storage-schemas.conf, put the following content :

#==================================================================

# Schema definitions for Whisper files. Entries are scanned in order,

# and first match wins. This file is scanned for changes every 60 seconds.

# [name]

# pattern = regex

# retentions = timePerPoint:timeToStore, timePerPoint:timeToStore, ...

# Carbon's internal metrics. This entry should match what is specified in

# CARBON_METRIC_PREFIX and CARBON_METRIC_INTERVAL settings

[carbon]

pattern = ^carbon\.

retentions = 60:90d
