(How does one|does anyone bother to) monitor their cDOT cluster switches?
I'm 1500km from my filers, and the remote hands guys just sent me a note, "did you know your cluster switch is only single-powered?" To which I hang my head and go, "no."
This isn't the first time stupid things like this have popped up. Looking over the Upgrade Advisor output, it invites you to inspect your switch firmwares, but, since the filer doesn't have any administrative tie-ins to that switch, it's not helpful. Feels like this is just a complete black-box that most admins aren't going to look at until they've dropped a whole switch and the filer notices the port die, by which point you're into danger territory.
Seems like this could be something smarter. Like, pop in an ACP-style loop or somesuch.
