If you missed it, there was a release on Friday of 2.0RC1.  I upgraded the 1.1 vsphere version I was using, and I’m very impressed with the new version.  Instead of having to search for only a few object types, the new version has drill down from the cluster level and data on lifs, ports, nodes, etc.  The upgrade was basically painless, also.

Subject: Re: Deleted Performance Manager

No, it's barely functional. It's got a lot of promise, but lacks some very basic features I'd have expected in 1.0. Storage performance management is the achilles heel of most storage vendors, and this is no exception. I hope Netapp will put together some sort of focus group to guide the next few iterations. It really does have promise- of all the useless performance applications I've used, this one does the coolest useless tricks... like their algorithm for determining bully volumes and telling you which layer the problem is at.

So has anyone actually found a good use for performance manager?  I'm
running the latest version against a fairly busy but unbalanced two
node cluster and I keep getting frustrated that I can't drill down or
move up to get a better overview of things.

I *know* I've got some performance and space issues, but I'd like to
be able to see the overall system state and then drill down into
things so I understand them better before I make changes or try to fix
stuff.

Maybe I'm just not using it right, wouldn't be the first time...
