Hi Matt, What you are really looking for is for Cluster(HA) Configuration checker. You could either do this using the Check Configuration OnCommand/DFM or a better and more enhanced tool is wire gauge. Attached is screen shot on OC from where you can do this. Regards adai

Hi why are /etc/rc and /etc/hosts not included? The general idea of Config Mgmt is to have standards for value that are common and can be shared. But in case of rc and host files there inst much to share. Esp in case of rc file its the ip address of the filer which will be different for all filers, so there inst much to share. Similary in case of host file its contains the IP and dns names which are different for each filer. Can you explain me what is that you are looking to do by doing config mgmt of file or options which needs to be specific to each filer Regards adai

Hi Bt, Happy for you. The issue was indeed due to not handling the vfiler DR scenarios. When you say "I am not a fan of OC 5.1 dashboard availability panel". Can you give me more info on the same as to what you liked in the old OC 5.0 and what you don't like in the OC 5.1 ? Regards adai

Hi Martin, I am not clear on what syslog are you trying. But here is the List of environmental variable that are generated in DFM. This is documented in the following FAQ. https://library.netapp.com/ecmdocs/ECMM1278650/html/faq/index.shtml#_7.5 Also if you are running your OnCommand server on linux you will have to source file named vars.csh or vars.sh under the following directory. <installdir>/NTAPdfm/bin Also while you call the script in your alarm the format should be as follows. full path of the interpreter and the script path. Script Name /usr/bin/perl /opt/script.pl lnx:~ # dfm alarm list Alarm 1 Group Global Event Severity All Event Name All Time From 00:00 Time To 23:59 Email Addresses xyz@netapp.com Script Name /usr/bin/perl /opt/script.pl User Script Runs As root Regards adai

Hi Sam, You can forward traps received from filer to DFM server and then DFM server to third party trap receiver like HPOV. Pls refer to this FAQ which give more details on the same. Its is not recommended and best practice to install or run other software on the server which is running DFM server. https://library.netapp.com/ecmdocs/ECMM1278650/html/faq/index.shtml#_7.12 Regards adai

Hi BT, Let me answer your questions one by one. None of the 4 servers are displaying data in the "Full Soon Storage" or "Fastest Growing Storage" panes of the Dashboard. They all say "No data to display." where the data should be presented. In the 2 server where you have made a PA only instance you will only see data in NMC for PA views and charts. You will not see any capacity information for volume or qtrees that are discovered in these servers. In the 2 servers where you have disabled PA you will and should see all data except PA views and charts like Volume qtree and aggr used and total spaces. I have a fifth OnCommand server that was previously built (version 5.0) with no modifications made to it and the data displays just fine. Do all this 5 OnCommand servers monitors same set of filers or different set of filers ? Is there something about disabling PA that would cause this issue? The full soon and fastest growing are capacity based monitoring data.Which are later shown in the dashboard panels. So PA has nothing to do with these to dashboard panel for not showing data. Infact PA has nothing to do with any data that is shown in the OnCommand Console. Can you check if you see any of the following errors in your dfmserver.log under the <installdir>/DFM/log dfmserver.log:Feb 08 11:50:29 [dfmserver:ERROR]: [1588:0xb04]: Could not obtain graph objects Regards adai BTW pls upgrade to 5.0.2 which has an important security fix and GA candidate release with some of the regression and bug fixes.

Hi Adai, In the last couple of weeks, we've built 4 new OnCommand servers. Two of the servers are set up as PA servers only, as per your instructions in the following post. Customizing OnCommand/DFM server for Performance Advisor (PA) only functionality. The other two have only had a single modification made to them; dfm option set perfAdvisorEnable=Disabled. None of the 4 servers are displaying data in the "Full Soon Storage" or "Fastest Growing Storage" panes of the Dashboard. They all say "No data to display." where the data should be presented. I have a fifth OnCommand server that was previously built (version 5.0) with no modifications made to it and the data displays just fine. Is there something about disabling PA that would cause this issue? Thanks again! bt
