NetApp Harvest: How to configure poller to send metrics of multiple cluster to different graphite

Hi All

NetApp Harvets : 1.4.1

cDot Ontap Version: 9.3

I have a poller instance collecting stats from multiple clusters. I wanted to send metrics of different set of clusters to different graphite instance by same poller. How can i can configure default/poller section in netapp-harvest.conf?

For Example, here is my current config file [working]

==========

[default]
graphite_enabled = 1
graphite_server = graphite_server_1
username = netapp-harvest
password = *****
graphite_port = 2003
graphite_proto = tcp
normalized_xfer = mb_per_sec
normalized_time = millisec
graphite_root = default
graphite_meta_metrics_root = default

## If using ssl_cert (and not password auth)
## uncomment and populate next three lines
# auth_type = ssl_cert
# ssl_cert = INSERT_PEM_FILE_NAME_HERE
# ssl_key = INSERT_KEY_FILE_NAME_HERE

##
#### Poller sections; Add one section for each cDOT cluster, 7-mode node, or OCUM server
#### If any keys are different from those in default duplicate them in the poller section to override.
##

# [INSERT_CLUSTER_OR_CONTROLLER_NAME_HERE_EXACTLY_AS_SHOWN_FROM_CLI_PROMPT]
# hostname = INSERT_IP_ADDRESS_OR_HOSTNAME_OF_CONTROLLER_OR_CLUSTER_LIF_HERE
# group = INSERT_GROUP_IDENTIFIER_HERE

[cdot_cluster_1]
hostname = clus_cdot_1
group = Finance
data_update_freq = 300

==========

Now i want to use this same poller to capture metric from "cdot_cluster_2" to different graphite server "graphite_server_2". How should i configure in netapp-harvest.conf?

Would appreciate much for any help/support/assitance on it. Thank You!

Thanks

If you specify "graphite_server" parameter inside your second poller section, it will override the value defined in [default] section. Something like this should work for you:

[cdot_cluster_2]
hostname = clus_cdot_2
graphite_server = graphite_server_2
group = Finance
data_update_freq = 300
