Awesome! - thanks Chris

Looks great, the only issue I'm seeing so far is no Flash Pool stats on my lab 2250 running 9.0 GA.

Questions,

Do Harvest/Grafana support RBAC(LDAP)?

Also does this product allow for monitoring of certain NetApp process like Kahuna?

Thanks,

Hi Chris,

I followed the source upgrade instructions (upgrading from version 1.2.2). When I went to start the services in step 9 I was given the following error:

Can't locate IO/Socket/SSL.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /usr/local/lib64/perl5 /usr/local/share/perl5 /usr/lib64/perl5/vendor_perl /usr/share/perl5/vendor_perl5 /usr/lib64/perl5 /usr/share/perl5 .) at /opt/netapp-harvest/netapp-manager line 25
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /opt/netapp-harvest/netapp-manager line 25

The system is RHEL6 and was previously installed with the source instructions.

From what I can see "use IO::Socket:SSL;" on line 25 of netapp-manager is a new line (feature?) in harvest 1.3.

Is there a pre-req needed to get this working?

Awesome, Thanks for all the hard work, We use Harvest/Graphite/Grafana everyday!

Hi @michaelll

Thanks for the feedback.  Unfortunately I don't have a flashpool system with ONTAP 9 in my lab.  I will send you a private message to see if you are available to collect and provide me logs so I can diagnose.

>>Do Harvest/Grafana support RBAC(LDAP)?

Yes.  In the Harvest admin guide are steps to create a least-privilege RBAC read-only role. This role can be applied to a local or remotely authenticated user account.

>>Also does this product allow for monitoring of certain NetApp process like Kahuna?

Yes.  Harvest tracks average CPU per node and CPU per processing domain, including Kahuna.

Hi @jonathon_lanzon,

Here is the list of prerequisites for RHEL/CentOS as found in the Harvest v1.3 admin guide:

sudo yum install -y epel-release unzip perl perl-JSON \ 
perl-libwww-perl perl-XML-Parser perl-Net-SSLeay \ 
perl-Time-HiRes perl-LWP-Protocol-https 
sudo yum install -y perl-Excel-Writer-XLSX 

Can you execute these and advise if that resolves the issue?

If that doesn't work maybe one more is required:

sudo yum install -y perl-IO-Socket-SSL

My test system is CentOS so it could be that default modules differ with RHEL so I would appreciate your feedback on the fix.

Cheers,
Chris Madden

Another question, does Harvest offer a feature to email alerts based on thresholds or is it meant more as a dashboard suppliement to OCUM?  I know OCUM can do some alerting.

Thank you
