Risks, Limitations & Assumptions

  • The integration can manage critical/recovery failure alerts for the following two scenarios when the user activates App Failure Notifications in the settings:
    • Connectivity Exception
    • Authentication Exception
  • NetApp ONTAP will not send any duplicate/repeat failure alert notification until the already existing critical alert is recovered.
  • Using metrics for monitoring the resources and generating alerts when the threshold values are breached.
  • NetApp ONTAP cannot control monitoring pause/resume actions based on above alerts.
  • Since a single NetApp Cluster may contain thousands of resources. At the time of Monitoring we are facing performance issues.
  • The api rate limit is 20 (At a point of time we can make 20 API calls only with the cluster).
  • Component level thresholds can be configured on each resource level.
  • No support of showing activity logs.
  • The Template Applied Time will only be displayed if the collector profile (Classic and NextGen Gateway) is version 18.1.0 or higher.nd applied time.
  • NetApp ONTAP supports both Classic Gateway and NextGen Gateway
