Hi,

OnCommand System Manager 2.1 is available on the support site.New features such as support for Flash Pools, Infinite Volumes, and multi-disk carrier disk shelves are included in this release. System Manager 2.1 also corrects a potential data availability issue that affected the network module in System Manager 2.0.1. The list of incremental bug fixes included in System Manager 2.1 is available here :

https://library.netapp.com/ecm/ecm_get_file/ECMP1120619

Customers using older versions of System Manager are recommended to download and install the new OnCommand System Manager 2.1 from the support site. We've also heard some complaints on performance and we have tried to address issues in this release.

In case there are any questions or issues please reach out to me directly at amrita.das@netapp.com.

Thanks for your support and let us know your feedback.

Regards

Amrita

Does it support “server mode” - i.e. access to OCSM from remote computer? It was mentioned in the past that this feature was planned.

Looks much more responsive than 2.0.2 (even after hostname resolution workaround). Also supports update. Congratulations!

One comment. Going into network configuration I get “/etc/rc entries are not in correct order, changing configuration disabled”. Well, I would expect OCSM to fix it for me; requiring user to manually edit it just opens up yet another possibility for “human factor” …

Just noticed that protocol latency legend is wrong. It says “No. of ops in millisecs” which makes no sense. I do not remember whether it was the same in 2.0.x.

Same question about "server mode". It would be very helpful to be able to access the web interface from a remote client without installing the software on it

Anybody receive the following error message when launching the system manager?

OnCommand System Manager is accessed by another client. OnCommand System Manager is locked to single client for security reason.

Hi,

Could you try uninstall and re-install? I'm wondering if its because of some old files. Is anyone else hitting this?

Thank you!

Is work still going on with the Beta that gives more control over vFiler management and SnapVault? Also, I think I ran into a bug the other day with version 2.0.2 at a client. I was trying to setup a QSM of a SLC system and it failed. Both the source and target systems were running ONTAP 8.1.1P2. 64b aggregates and both source and destination aggregates were SLC. When I used the wizard to create the relationship I got the following:

The source volume is a SLC volume. I was able to create the QSM from the CLI and then was able to manage it fine but this was strange.

Regards,

Andre

Our team's taking a look at this. But just to confirm the behavior the cli allows creation for the exact same conditions but in SM you ran into this error? In case we need more data we'll reach out to you.

From the release notes, we can't manage older storage systems with earlier version of ontap below 7.3.7 .

Re: OnCommand System Manager 2.1 is now Available

Andre_Clark — Tue, 11 Dec 2012 00:13:15 GMT

Amrita,

Yes, I was able to create the QSM via CLI but was not able to do it via SM.

System Manager isn't yet qualified or supported on the Windows 8 yet. However some customers have managed to get it to work in the compatibility mode.

More details about platform support are available on our support site under interoperability matrix.

Hi,

Windows 2012 is not yet a supported or tested configuration. However some customers have managed to get it to work suing the compatibility mode.
