Discuss NetApp solutions for Microsoft Private Cloud and the Hyper-V platform, including FlexPod Datacenter, OnCommand Plug-in for Microsoft, and ONTAP PowerShell Toolkit.
Hello, We have a NetApp SANtricity (E-Series) array and are planning to use it as storage for a Hyper-V cluster (Windows Server). Has anyone implemented this setup before? What are your experiences regarding performance and stability? Are there any best practices or pitfalls to be aware of (iSCSI, MPIO, CSV, etc.)? I know Ontap is better for this usage but can i have real good performances for VM on production environnement ? Thanks for your feedback and recommendations!

Hi everyone. I'm fairly new to PowerShell. I was tasked with verifying all of our scripts run in PowerShell 7. Currently they are running in PowerShell 5. When used in PowerShell 5, the Get-NcVol command works perfectly, but in PowerShell 7 it misses nearly all of our volumes. I installed the latest version of NetApp PowerShell Toolkit (ver. 9.17.1), but no change. I'm puzzled by this behavior. The main issue right now is the command: Get-NcVol. Example: PowerShell 5. PS C:\Users\_dhiggins> $volumes = Get-NcVol PS C:\Users\_dhiggins> $volumes.count 566 <-- this is correct Example: PowerShell 7: PS C:\Users\_dhiggins> $volumes = Get-NcVol PS C:\Users\_dhiggins> $volumes.count 23 <-- Why?? Nothing changed. We are using Windows Server 2022 Standard, ver. 21H2 (PowerShell 7 is running in Visual Studio Code), fully updated. Has anyone encountered this? Do I need to use the Get-NcVol command differently in PS7?? I am unable to find a solution. I contacted NetApp and they directed me here. Thank you, Doug

I created a new role that should only have snapshot permissions to volumes ending with _stg: security login role create -role stg-admin -vserver dc -cmddirname "volume" -access readonly security login role create -role stg-admin -vserver dc -cmddirname "vserver" -access readonly security login role create -role stg-admin -vserver dc -cmddirname "network interface" -access readonly security login role create -role stg-admin -vserver dc -cmddirname "volume snapshot" -query "-volume *_stg" -access all A new user with that role is not able to delete a random snapshot for vol1, but is able to delete snapshots from vol2_stg. So permissions are working properly. The problem is I'm getting "Remove-NcSnapshot : [403]: not authorized for that command" on both examples, even when it does successfully delete the vol2_stg vol snapshot. Am I missing a permission it's expecting even though it is successfully deleting them? Or is this a bug in NetApp.ONTAP module?

I use Powershell to create a script, ONTAP Powershell Version is 9.14.1 I user get-ncdisk command to get disk information, and my environment is simulator, At the beginning the command [get-ncdisk] can be use, but suddenly I can't use get-ncdisk, and system force me to use -zapi to performance, but zapi can't get some information, for example when I don't -use -zapi, I can see Shelf ID but If I use -zapi, the Shelf ID Field is empty, how can fix this problem?
