Netapp CPU Busy Percentage

kaushikpathak over 9 years ago

Why dont we have NetApp CPU Busy Percentage performance metrics in SRM(Orion) ? This is present in SRM (Profiler) for 7-mode devices, but was upset not to see that in SRM (Orion) where we added C-mode devices. Couple of our devices are working hard and we need to monitor its CPU utilization and Total IOPS which we are not able to do....

In the SRM Orion v6.0 there is really nothing like that, thank you for this feedback, we will discuss this internally.
Thank you for pointing this out!

Definately second this as a feature. We are currently in the middle of a PoC which includes SRM. CPU stats on a NetApp filer are one of the key indicators of potential issues in conjunction with IOPS and latency and therefore would be really useful.

Hi brianflynn, I'm wondering if there has been an update on kaushikpathak's feedback? Thanks.

Hi bladegillete‌,
We've tracked this enhancement (internal: SRM-11369) and will consider implementation in one of future releases.

Okay thank you. This enhancement would be very useful for us once implemented.

I would like to second this. In large Netapp deployments you will run out of CPU power before you run out of anything else. Many times high Latency is caused by the controllers being too overloaded on CPU (higher than 90%). For Netapp CPU is critical.

You could always create a custom SNMP poller. This OID should give you the CPU busy % across the cluster.
OID: 1.3.6.1.4.1.789.1.2.1.14.1.4
Cheers,
Dave

It's here, correct?
NetApp CPU Percent Utilization.UnDP
or
NetAppStats.UnDP
And there is this combo for alerting, hopefully on High CPU
NetApp Health Stats
with
NetApp Health Advanced Alert
If anyone beats me to it, feedback on if they work.....
