I asked a similar question on the Netapp community.  I got several hundred reads but not a single response.  Disappointing.

My question specifically was how to get the Perf Advisor data from DFM via the cli, specifically for scripting and throwing the data into other applications like mrtg.  Perf Advisor collects not only total iops but type of iop as well; read, write, or meta.  Very nice info but using PA all the time is too heavyweight for me.

If all you want is total iops, the sysstat parse, as already mentioned, on a periodic basis is simple enough to do.

I’m hoping a Netapp lurker might have an answer to my query though….

Hi all,

Does anyone know if there is a way to calculate the number of IOPS a filer is handling via SNMP or some way to script a collection ?

Thanks

Matt
