Introduction
NetApp cluster is an operating system used in storage disk arrays.
Prerequisites
The Transport Layer Security (TLS) must be enabled on the NetApp Cluster.
To check the TLS status:
- SSH to the resource:
SSH username@hostname
. For example:root@1.1.1.1
. - Enter the command:
system services web show
. - If TLS is not enabled, change the status. For example:
tls.enable on
Example output:
External Web Services: true
Status: online
HTTP Protocol Port: 80
HTTPS Protocol Port: 443
TLSv1 Enabled: true
SSLv3 Enabled: true
SSLv2 Enabled: true
OpsRamp configuration
Configuration involves:
- Creating credentials.
- Configuring the integration.
- Adding a discovery profile.
Step 1: Create a credential
To create credentials:
- From All Clients, select a client.
- Go to Setup > Accounts > Clients.
- On the client’s Credentials tab, add the credential information.
The following describes some of the credential settings:
- Type: NetAppCluster
- Use Password Vault: If enabled, specify
Policy Mapping
, otherwise, specify a password.- Policy mapping enables integration of a Password Manager application with credentials.
- Password is the authentication password to access a resource.
- Port:
- For HTTP* communication, use
80
. - For HTTPS communication, select Is Secure and use
443
.
- For HTTP* communication, use
Step 2: Configure the integration
To integrate:
- From All Clients, select a client.
- Go to Setup > Integrations > Integrations.
- From Available Integrations, select Storage > NetApp Cluster and click Install.
- Provide the following:
- Name
- IP address
- Credentials. Select an existing credential or create a new credential.
- Click Save.
Step 3: Add a discovery profile
To add a discovery profile:
- From the integration, click Add.
- Provide the following information:
- Profile details.
- Profile name
- Select profile
- IP address
- Filter criteria
- Smart filters: Use to filter resources based on the resource type.
- Resource filters: Use to filter resources based on certain resource attributes.
- Perform actions: Manage Device
- Discovery schedule. Based on the settings, discovery is triggered based on the scheduled time. New resources added to the environment are automatically discovered.
- Profile details.
- Click Save.
- From the Discovery Profiles section, click Scan Now for the associated profile.
What to do next
After a discovery profile is created, you can do the following:
- View the integration: Go to Infrastructure > Storage.
- Assign monitoring templates to the resource.
- Validate that the resource was successfully added to OpsRamp.
