NB: INCOMPLETE
Requirements
- Array should support SSH interface
- Following commands should be available:
- svcinfo lsnode
- svcinfo lsnodevpd
- svcinfo lsiostatsdumps
- svctask cpdumps
Configuration
1. On monitoring server, generate new SSH key using ssh-keygen
ssh-keygen -b 2048 -f monitoring.key
This will produce two files, monitoring.key (private key) and monitoring.key.pub (public key)
2. Create new user on array:
Authentication Mode | Local |
User Group | Administrator |
Password | (leave empty) |
SSH Public Key | Select monitoring.key.pub |
Error creating thumbnail: Unable to save thumbnail to destination
3. Try ssh connection to array:
ssh -i monitoring.key user@array_ip
Error creating thumbnail: Unable to save thumbnail to destination
4. Clear old statistics from array:
4.1 Run "lsnode" to get list of nodes
4.2 Run "svctask cleardumps -prefix /dumps/iostats NODE_NAME" for each node.
Example:
"svctask cleardumps -prefix /dumps/iostats node1"
5. Start statistics collector:
svctask startstats -interval 1
where "1" is interval in minutes. 6. Wait couple of minutes and try to copy collected statistics from array:
scp -i monitoring.key -r user@array_id:/dumps/iostats/
