Hi All.
I am using NetApp Release 8.0.2P4 7-Mode in active/active mode. I am monitoring it with snmp and Cacti. Yesterday I've performed takeover, sp reboot and giveback. During this process OIDS from 1.3.6.1.4.1.789.1.5 have changed for volumes. I have no list from before the change so I cannot compare but I see in the graphs that volumes are available under different OIDs. Have someone had such problems when restarting netapp/performing takeover giveback?
Best regards, Rafal Radecki.
I have noticed that the OIDs for volumes can change when you create/delete new volumes. At first I thought they where just enumerated in order of creation but I am not certain.

The NetSNMP agent that the filer is using will re-index all of the filesystems every time you reboot a head, so you can't count on having the filesystem OIDs remain persistent across the life of the filer. - From what I understand, this is the way the agent is designed to work. If you're using this Cacti template:

The Cacti query should be initiated as an XML query via SNMP and (IIRC) it will Do The Right Thing (TM) and put your volumes in the right place no matter what the index values return.

I wrote a Perl script that takes care of this, about three years ago. Will have to dig it up and send it out
