Great idea. I just tried the following:

1) Created a dataset with the “No protection” policy.

2) Added an unprotected qtree to this dataset.

3) Ran “Protect Now” on the dataset to get from uninitialized to protected.

But now I still see the qtree in the unprotected data list.

Any more ideas?

Regards,

Pascal

Another possibility is to create a dataset with a 'No Protection' policy attached. Then add all the qtree's and volumes you want to ignore to this dataset. In that case you need to consciously attach all those resources to the 'No Protection' dataset and all data displayed as unprotected will then be new data you still need to attach to a dataset.

Hello Tom,

Thanks for your help. Unfortunately, I can only ignore hosts like this. The ignore button is greyed out in the aggregate, volume and qtree view.

I am running the latest dfm version 5.2RC1 btw.

Pascal

Hi Pascal,

In the right upper corner you have 4 different possibilites for resources view. You can select hosts, aggregates, volumes or aggregates there. You can ignore any of those resources. If you can't see the ignored column, you can click the small button where the X and Y-axis come together on the upper right and slect the ignored column there.

Grtz,

Tom

Hello All,

I would like to use DFM (OnCommand Core) to track any unprotected Volumes/Qtrees in my NetApp environment.

The menu ‘Unprotected Data à Resources’ in Protection Manager shows me a list with all unprotected Qtrees but unfortunately, I do not know how to customize this list.

I would like to ignore a) Volumes that we do not save at all and b) all non-qtree data, because we always use Qtrees.

Is there a way to customize the list in Protection Manager or does somebody know a completely different solution, that could meet my needs?

Thanks in advance.

Regards,

Pascal
