Performance advisor not connecting to filers

GUVNIJJAR — Thu, 05 Jun 2025 06:40:38 GMT

I have installed performance advisor on my machine. I downloaded the software from my data fabric manager server. When I open up performance advisor, it asks for a server name and login credentials, which I add in, but then it comes back with an error message saying could not connect to host on port 8488. Looking at the error details it says the server refused a connection on the indicated port.

I have different filers and all come back with the same error message.

Is there a step I have a missed, or is there anything I need to do on the filers. Any advise.

Thanks

Try restarting the services and if that doesn't work please reboot the system.

Cheers,

I am getting the same error. I restarted the services using dfm service stop/ start but still not able to connect to the filer on port 8088 or 8488. Connection refused.
