About the Content Pack for NetApp Data ONTAP Dashboards and Reports

The Content Pack for NetApp Data ONTAP Dashboards and Reports provides real-time and historical visibility into the performance and configuration of your NetApp storage infrastructure. Use this content pack with the Splunk Add-on for NetApp Data ONTAP to collect NetApp API data from one or more NetApp Fabric Attached Storage (FAS) controllers.

The content pack uses the capabilities of a scheduler and domain-specific data collection nodes (DCNs) to process and map data from your storage layer. The Splunk Add-on for NetApp Data ONTAP uses splunkd to index and process your data and the Splunk Web application server to enable you to search and navigate your data using the dashboards provided by Content Pack for NetApp Data ONTAP Dashboards and Reports.

The content pack includes the following components:

  • A pre-built knowledge base of dashboards and reports that deliver visibility into your storage infrastructure.
  • Dashboards for proactive monitoring.
  • Knowledge objects that populate the dashboards and reports present in the content pack.

ITSI and ITE Work support

The content in the Content Pack for Monitoring Microsoft Windows is supported in ITSI and ITE Work.
