This is sort of off-topic, but is there any known roadmap for an SNMP v2c or V3 implementation from NetApp? Just curious, since I'm also using cacti and am kind of sick of having to poll NetApp's "all interfaces" traffic OIDs.

In our house, I dropped MRTG last year, and I'm using Cacti instead (http://www.cacti.net) It works the same as MRTG under the wire, but is much easier to configure and manage.
Let me guess, your network stats aren't correct on your GigE interfaces? Last time I looked, NetApp insists that SNMP v2c and v3 aren't mature enough for them to bother with. SNMP v1 only supports 32 bit variables, which overflow at about 115 Mbps. To get around that, NetApp provides high and low order 32 bit values for the network counters. You get to do the math yourself. Personally, I've found it much easier to just graph the switch port, which does support v2c. I've not seen any problems with the FE interfaces.

People,
I've used the filer-mrtg scripts from Now in the past, but I'd prefer to go down the SNMP route, as I suspect the network stats are not working well on the later releases of ONTAP ... Has anyone got some mrtg config files they can share with me?
I've tried using the search archive facility on the mathworks site but It's not much use as it does not sort in date order and you cannot see the whole of the subject!
Any advice welcome...
Cheers

I have also bugged them for years, no results. It is a shame that NetApp does not support SNMP v2c or v3, almost any other NAS vendor does, hell, even BlueArc has it!
Any ideas how to better lobby for this feature?

I called today and entered another ticket to reference bugid 10527. That is the only open bug about this RFE that Jamie at NA could find. He said that it was last updated on 1/4/2005 but he had no idea if it was being addressed. He also said that it looked like 7X would support V1 again. The way to get this to change is to have many different people call in and request it. If one or two of us request it they don't do too much but if a bunch of different customers yell they might look into it. When you enter your ticket, refer to the above bugid.
I hear the rallying cry now.... change that rev... change that rev! (kind of like "move that bus" but not near as many people in the crowd to chant).
