Hello All, NetApp is planning to enhance the SNMP support in the filer in an upcoming release of the OS. Due to some risk factors, I'd rather not promise that it will be the next major release (next year), but that is the current plan.
Things we definitely plan to do when this support is added: (a) GETs for general CIFS-related filer parameters. (b) GETs for statistics on all SMB requests, both cumulative and per client. (c) Generic TRAP support, with settings and parameters for each available trap manageable through Filerview.
I would welcome feedback on: (a) Additional GETs you think are necessary. (b) Trap support considerations. (b) Specific traps you think should be implemented. (d) Other things pertaining to SNMP that would be helpful.
It would help us if you could indicate the relative importance-- to your company's future infrastructure plans--of things that you suggest.
Thanks,
Alan
