Missing FPolicy requests when basic attributes of a file are modified

Hi,

 

I have configured NetApp FPolicy on a SMB share. The FPolicy server I have developed get requests from NetApp. I am enabled all SMB filters (open, close, setattr, delete, delete_dir, rename, rename_dir).

 

I am using Data ONTAP 8.3.2. I modified the basic attributes of a file (changed the file to read-only). But I do not get any notification requests from NetApp.

 

Is there someway I can get notified when basic attributes of a file are modified?

 

Thanks for your help!

List of supported file operation and filter combinations that FPolicy can monitor for SMB

When you configure your FPolicy event, you need to be aware that only certain combinations of file operations and filters are supported for monitoring SMB file access operations.

The list of supported file operation and filter combinations for FPolicy monitoring of SMB file access events is provided in the following table:

Supported file operations Supported filters
closemonitor-ads, offline-bit, close-with-modification, close-without-modification
createmonitor-ads, offline-bit
create_dirCurrently no filter is supported for this file operation.

Hi Jeff,

 

The List of supported file operation and filter combinations that you shared, what release of Ontap is that for?
