You should wait for the userquota mon to discover in dfm, the quota set on the qtree on the filer. By default the userquota mon run every 8 hours. If you want the information immediately. Do a dfm host discover <filernamne/id> to forcefully discover. Regards adai

Hi Dominic, Since Sybase don't support VMware HA and Vmotion.Ops-Mgr doesn't support the same. Yes you are right,since HA doesn't shut the applications there is a possibility of corrupt db. Regards adai

Hi, IHAC who is interested in migrating from the DFM 3.6 to 3.7.1D10. The current installation has hardwired IPs and cannot be moved. They are interested in installing the 3.7.1D10 on a different machine, migrating the data from the current installation, move the service to the new installation . After the new install is confirmed ok, the old install will be decommissioned. I am looking to for the guidelines of such a project. Please advise. Regards, Misha Geberger Technical Global Advisor

Hi Chris, It is not advisible to change the event severity of this event. As there is no neutralization event for the same.So your volumes status will always not be normal (green) even when autodelete stops or volume size becomes ok Regards adai

Hi Chris, What is the value of snmp init the filer ? The value should be 1 this initializes the snmp daemon in case of init commands. Also these events are of the severity information. so they wont appear in the dfm report view events <volumename/id>. Rather you must use dfm report view events-history to view the same. In the web ui under the events sub section of the volumes details page there are two links current and history by default current events are shown. These events will appear under history. Regards adai

Hi Lovik, The Ops-Mgr license in filers are part of the future change in licensing that the product management is planning. Currently you wouldn't need to have additional license in each storage box. Regards adai

Hi Evan Creation of datasets and protection of the same can be only done for the NMC or the dfpm cli. I would recommend you to use the NMC as you are a novice.AS you become familiar and adept at PM you inadvertently start using the clis. Isn't the chapter on "Example of a data protection workflow scenario" at the below link help you ? http://now.netapp.com/NOW/knowledge/docs/DFM_win/rel371/pdfs/protect.pdf Regards adai

Hi Brendon, You can use the Ontap RBAC Management of DFM to create users, roles and groups with permissions you wish to give. Also the roles and groups created in one filer can be pused to single or set of filers. You can also manage their passwords using the password management of DFM. Hope this is what you are looking for.

Here is a way to get around by changing the severity of the event. By default [root@lnx186-35 ~]# dfm eventtype list rpm-unavailable Event Name Severity Class -------------------------------------------------- ------------ ------------------ rpm-unavailable Critical rpm.status [root@lnx186-35 ~]# The rpm-unavailable is critical event. You can modify the severity using the following command. [root@lnx186-35 ~]# dfm eventType modify -v Information RPM-unavailable Modified event "RPM-unavailable". [root@lnx186-35 ~]# Once modified [root@lnx186-35 ~]# dfm eventtype list rpm-unavailable Event Name Severity Class -------------------------------------------------- ------------ ------------------ rpm-unavailable Information rpm.status [root@lnx186-35 ~]# By this way you can circumvent the alarms you have configured for all critical events.

Better was is to calculate based on the number of relationships per filer (both incoming/outgoing)and the amout of head room youwould like to have for user operations so that the system cpu is not being hogged by the transfers alone. The max streams supported on each filer differs based on the ONTAP version filer hardware model. Regards adai

Hi Andy, There is nothing like enabling counter in ops-mgr. All counters come from ontap through counter manager. By default PA show all basic counters exposed by counter manger for a ontap version. Some counters are tagged as advanced/diag. For these counters to be shown in ops-mgr you need to enable the option using dfm option set perfAdvisorShowDiagCounters=yes. Regards adai
