Hi,
Ever since upgrading from OpsMan to OC5, I've had nothing but problems with it, or its database to be specific.
I recently spent 4 months working with NetApp support on one issue where the NetApp agents were causing OC5 to run out of interprocess communication semaphores thus preventing the web ui from communicating with the database. This was "solved" by removing the name of the OC5 server from all the agents so they wouldn't bother it anymore.
This solved the ipcs issue, but now I still have problems with the database when trying to run and DFM-related commands from a cli. The error I always get is:
Error: The DataFabric Manager server database is temporarily unavailable; error code is -103
Error: Please try again later
This can go on for hours, yet the web ui, while horribly slow, is still responsive and monitoring/alerting continues.
I can find nothing on the NOW site related to issues like these and am reluctant to open another support case and be told I am the only one who appears to have this problem.
After the last case my OC5 installation has been poked and prodded and examined 6 ways from Sunday, and nothing found to be odd or not covered by netapp's best practices.
Is anyone out there seeing these database issues?
