How do I start to use Performance Advisor?

g_ferguson — Thu, 05 Jun 2025 06:26:17 GMT

I have installed DFM (aka Operations Manager) on a linux host and successfully connected it to our NetApp.

I am told ( in many places on the Internet! ) Performance Advisor comes with Operations Manager but

nowhere tells me how to start it!

In Ops Man I have Setup > Options > Performancd Advisor thus...

Server HTTP Port Server HTTP Enabled Server HTTPS Port Server HTTPS Enabled Performance Advisor Enabled Performance Advisor Transport

So how do I start/connect to it ??

Thanks.

A frustrated, Garry Ferguson!

From operations manager web gui you need to download and install the NetApp Management Console (NMC). Nmc has performance advisor.

Thanks v much Scott. I've got there at last. It would be nice if NetApp had a simple document of how all these products are set up and how

you access them! If there is one, I've not found it!
