Reports

About reports

This topic describes each of the reports provided in this app. Searches saved as reports are listed on the Reports page. When you run a search you can save it as a report, an alert, a dashboard, or an event type. In each case, the format of the saved results determines where you can find the search in Splunk Web.

To get a list of the reports, click Reports in the app menu. You can use the default reports or you can modify the reports to generate specific results for your environment.

Connection problems in the last hour

Description

Use this search to get insight to the connection problems between this app and your NetApp filers. Connection issues can prevent data from coming into the app. When the Splunk App for NetApp Data ONTAP attempts to collect data from the ONTAP filer and experiences a connection problem, all of the events that result in a time out or that result in an unsuccessful login are returned.

Unhealthy cluster nodes in the last hour

Description

This search queries the ONTAP data for an event containing the string "Node is not healthy". The search returns the name of the "unhealthy" node and a timestamp for when the message was sent. Healthy nodes in a cluster can communicate with each other. When nodes are unhealthy the cluster looses the ability to successfully and reliably perform cluster operations.

Missing filer capability collection errors in the past hour

Description

The search returns a count of the API permissions errors. It queries all events containing errors that relate to having an incorrect set of capabilities to invoke the NetApp API. "Missing filer capability" is a specific type of collection error that indicates that a permissions error prevents the collection of data from the filers.

Volume Capacity Delta Table

Description

Use this search to be proactive regarding the storage changes in your volumes. Volume events provide you with information about the status of your volumes so that you can proactively monitor for potential storage problems. This search compares the storage on volumes between two different point in time (posterior storage used and prior storage) over the last 24 hours, and shows the change in capacity on the volumes. Computing the difference shows the growth trend that has happened between the two points calculated as a percent or based on capacity of storage on the volumes. For example, if your storage capacity is growing at 6% per day, then you can estimate how long it will take before you use up all available capacity. The legend on the chart indicates the data points that we compute in GB. A percent format is also provided. Prior storage for the particular volume is the event recorded earlier in time. Posterior storage for the volume is the event recorded later in time.

Total events in the past hour

Description

This search provides a total count of the number of syslog or Event Management System (EMS) events processed in the last hour. You can look at system logs to proactively monitor your environment for configuration or system changes. If there is a dramatic increase in the number of syslog events coming in from a filer, it can indicate that there is a problem. As a user look here to see if there is a problem with syslog data coming in.

Total error events in the past hour

Description

This search returns a total count of the number of syslog or Event Management System (EMS) error events processed in the last hour. You can look at system logs to proactively monitor your environment for configuration or system changes. The search queries the ONTAP syslog data for the string "error". As a user you can monitor this input for spikes in the events. A spike can identify error events or possible states of the filer that are prone to errors. You can then drill down and find out more details about the problem.

Count of disk events over time by filer

Description

Use this search to proactively monitor your environment. This search returns a count of the number of disk events on a particular filer, processed in the last hour.

As an admin you have an established baseline for normal behavior in your environment. Compare the numbers reported against the baseline activity for the filer to identify a potential problem. Look at the chart to see spikes in events that can determine high or low disk usage for a particular filer that is outside the normal range for your environment. You can look at the trend in your data and be proactive in managing your environment. Click on the chart or click on the table to drill down to see the events.
