Ed,

If you’re running an older version of DFM, there are some things that will happen as the database ages that can cause it to become sluggish.

One suggestion is to upgrade to a newer version - current for monitoring 7-mode systems is 5.2.1 - which buys you several things:


You may also wish to open a case, as NetApp Customer Success Services does have the ability to assist with your issue.

We've a DFM (an older version) that's misbehaving. 
At startup we get 'Service did not reach 'started' state due to timeout'. 
It does actually start and we can use the web interface... but after a few minutes (10ish) it starts to get very sluggish. 

restarting clears it up, but only (very) temporarily.

I've turned off PerfAdvisor, because I spotted some substantially large logs. 

Is anyone able to offer me suggestions of where else to look to troubleshoot? It looks like dbsrv10.exe is consuming all of a processor, trying to do 'something' but I have no idea what that might be. Perhaps a post restart 'tidy up'? 

I suspect this might be an 'open a case' situation, but I thought I'd seek some wisdom here too.

Thanks, 
Ed.
