Hi leroy, Starting DFM 3.8 IIRC we have the following default cifs reports. [root@lnx ~]# dfm report list | grep -i cifs cifs-shares shows CIFS shares of a storage system cifs-share-permissions shows permissions of CIFS shares of a storage system [root@lnx ~]# Below is the catalog for the custom fileds of CIFS. [root@lnx ~]# dfm report catalog list CIFSShare CIFSShare Catalog Default Display Tab: Filesystems Fields: Field Default Name Default Format ----------------------------------- --------------------------------------------- -------------- All All fields of this catalog Name CIFS Share Name MountPoint CIFS Share Mount Point Permission CIFS Share Permission Qtree CIFS Share Qtree (A) Volume CIFS Share Volume (A) [root@lnx ~]# Though this might not exactly what you are looking for, this is some thing close to what is availabe in OM today in cifs reporting. Regards adai

Hi richard, 2.The report archive is now on an external system, the report results files are no longer included in the OM database backup This is not valid, as even if it is a part of the local system dfm backup never included the report archive dir as part of the backup. Regards adai

Hi Brian, Below is the report view cli. dfm report view [ <options> ] <report-name> [ <report-arguments> ... ] Some of the options are The options are -g <group-id or group-name> -F <output-format> -l <lines> -q (quiet) -s <sortby-field> -x (show all fields; only in perl output format) -N <repeat-for> -i <repeat-interval> -t <timeout> (in seconds; for streaming reports) -H show deleted objects where in you are use the report-arguments option to drill the report to a specific object. In DFM everything is an object.So you can give the sub group names, filer names, aggr names, etc. Regards adai

Threshold at group level are not fixed to those filer that where member of the group at the time of creation of group also to those that might/can be added to it. Also those members removed from group will no more have the threshold. Regards adai

Hi Ryan, You should either have BCO licensed ( Disater Recovery Manager and Backup Manager feature enabled) or Protection Manager licensed. But why dont you try these or the corresponding filer traps from the filer itself if you dont have these features licensed in DFM. Regards adai

Hi Jeff, For Protection Manager to use the ndmp preferred interface.Following things need to be done. For Mirror Relationship the preferred address needs to be set for the host, using the dfm cli. dfm host set <hostname/id> hostPreferredAddr1=<preferred ip> Once this is set you will see in the job message, a line like this Using connection filer1_flier2_1253036407 (X.X.X.X<IPaddrset in the cli for filer1> -> X.X.X.X<IPaddrset in the cli for filer2>), id = 18 For Backup Relationship,(Snapvault) the filer options ndmpd.preferred_interface needs to be set. Once this is set you will see in the backup jobs message like Retrieved preferred interfaces (X.X.X.X) wheree X.X.X.X is the IP of interface set in the filer, for the ndmpd options. Regards adai

Hi Terrence, By default perfArchiveDir is stored in <installationsdir>/perfdata. [root@lnx~]# dfm options list perfArchiveDir Option Value --------------- ------------------------------ perfArchiveDir /opt/NTAPdfm/perfdata [root@lnx~]# Changes this to your desired location using the command. dfm options set perfArchiveDir=<your location> Regards adai

But you would loose your backup version, on protection manger even though those snapshots exits on the volume. As protection manger does not recognize or import older snapshots of a imported relationships as backup versions. Regards adai

Currenlty( untill DFM 3.8) this is not possible,Migrate from filer2----->filer3 with out rebaselining the relationship from filer1. But soon you would be able to do. We are working on to automate moving secondary volumes. If all goes well, it will be in the next release. Regards adai

Hi srikanth, Its just your syntax is incorrect. [root@lnx ~]# dfm perf threshold create help NAME create -- to create a performance threshold SYNOPSIS dfm perf threshold create -o <object-name-or-id> -d <threshold-interval> -e <event-name> -C "<object-type>:<counter-name> <threshold-value> <threshold-unit> [ <threshold-type> ] [, <object-type>:<counter-name> <threshold-value> <threshold-unit> [ <threshold-type> ] ...]" [ <property>=<value> ... ] DESCRIPTION create a threshold on a given object. Combination thresholds can be created by specifying multiple counters using the -C option, separated by a ",". [root@lnx~]# dfm perf threshold create -o 101 -d 300 -e evt_latency -C "cifs:cifs_latency 200 microsec upper" Created new threshold (1). [root@lnx ~]# dfm perf threshold create -o 101 -d 300 -e evt_latency -C "cifs:cifs_latency 200 microsec lower" Created new threshold (2).

Hi Thorsten, - create the new secondary volume in the new aggregate [adai]yes You must probably suspend the dataset so there is no conformance run or scheduled update. - manually create a VSM relationship between secvol_old and secvol_new [adai] yes - quiesce and break the VSM relationship [adai] yes. Also cleanup the vsm snapshot and snapmirror.conf entry. - create a new snapvault relationship between prim_vol and secvol_new [adai] yes but for each qtrees and do a snapvault start -r - import it into protection manager [adai] Yes this will work.But we don’t import the old backup version. - delete the snapvault relationship between prim_vol and secvol_old [adai] Yes. use snapvault stop. - be happy... Regards adai
