We are upgrading this week to OnTAP 9.14.1 and I just reviewed the new cluster and volume tagging feature. It appears very straightforward and could prove useful to us, however I'm wondering what NetApp tools are available that could make use of them in some kind of reporting. I don't currently see anything in ActiveIQ Unified Manager (I am on version 9.14) and we don't have Cloud Insights. What would be the primary way these tags could be used to generate reports and/or dashboards? ... View more

I am not sure if this is the correct forum, but I did see other posts about NetApp volumes here. Please advise of the correct forum if needed. On the Google Cloud Platform, I deployed  a STANDARD service level 2048gb NetApp storagepool in uscentral1. Then I created a 100gb volume also in uscentral1.   I have a question about this volume's performance. When I use the FIND command to traverse through a directory, the performance is noticeably slower on the Netapp volume versus the same data on the local drive. At first I was thinking I needed to increase my throughput performance by increasing my service level or making the volume bigger(which increases throughput performance). But after thinking about it, my FIND command is not moving data, it's just traversing through the directory. So it seems this is not a throughput issue?   Does anyone have insight as to the performance issue here:   root@server1:~# time find /data_local/cache/4c71-4cb6-bd50-d80aa7/ -type f | wc -l 4995 real 0m0.119s user 0m0.058s sys 0m0.059s root@server1:~# time find /data_NetappVol/cache/4c71-4cb6-bd50-d80aa7/ -type f | wc -l 4995 real 0m3.968s user 0m0.078s sys 0m0.219s ...

I've deployed a new instance of OnTap Select version 9.16.1RC1. When I try to configure the Onboard Key Manager I get the following error, "Operation failed because TPM is not active. Contact technical support for assistance.".  I'm not seeing this error if I deploy 9.14.1 or 9.15.1.  Did hardware requirements change in 9.16.1 for OnTap Select? ... View more

Hi in order to facilitate a migration on a big number of client i would like to know if it s possible to mount a volume in different location at the same time.  the volume is mounted through the old path in 100+ client and it s not really easy to synchronize the change at the same time on all clients. ...

Good Morning,   I would like to add snmp-exporter to the NABOX, in order to be able to monitor the mcc-ip backend switches (cisco 9336), so we will be able to visual the bandwidth of the ISL ports , so we will know when we need to add more ports or replace those 40Gb ports to 100Gb.   Thanks in advanced. Y. ... View more
