Hi,

I setup Netapp Harvest following Administration guide, I can start the pollers and they seem to be sending data to graphite

 

[2019-06-17 17:02:00] [NORMAL ] [main] Collection of system info from [10.9.0.61] running [NetApp Release 9.5P2] successful.
[2019-06-17 17:02:00] [NORMAL ] [main] Found best-fit monitoring template (older generation or major release): [cdot-9.3.0.conf]

Does this mean, metrics are collected correctly but not sent to graphite:

[2019-06-17 17:38:03] [DEBUG  ] M= netapp.poller.perf.perf-test.perf-netapp01.workload_detail_volume.apiTime 0.0698990821838379 1560818283

I checked logs inside graphite container but do not see any errors but don't see any data in whisper db, for eg:

22 metrics were recieved by netapp harvest

[2019-06-17 17:38:03] [DEBUG  ] M= netapp.poller.perf.perf-test.perf-netapp01.workload_detail_volume.metricsReceived 22 1560818283

but there are no entries in whisper

/opt/graphite/bin # ./whisper-fetch.py /opt/graphite/storage/whisper/netapp/poller/perf/perf-test/perf-netapp01
/workload_detail_volume/metricsReceived.wsp | grep 15608182
1560818220	None
1560818280	None

Kindly advise, Netapp looks very promising but cannot get the setup working e2e

You pasted twice the same log lines, did you mean to post the logs for the graphite container ?

 

From what I see, Harvest cannot connect to Graphite in your case.

 

You say it's running in a container, how did you run the container ? Are you sure it's publishing port 2003 ?

My bad for duplicate logs. I was able to resolve the issue, there were 2 problems container running graphite didn't had proper permissions to write to storage volume mapped to the docker host and retention for metrics were not setup correctly in /etc/carbon/storage-schemas.conf (Section Setting frequency and retention in storage-schemas.conf in administrative guide).

After following the above steps, Netapp harvest works like a charm!
