22.11.0

[cgrinds]

22.11.0 / 2022-11-21

📌 Highlights of this major release include:

• ✨ Harvest now includes a StorageGRID collector and a Tenant/Buckets dashboard. We're just getting started with StorageGRID dashboards. Please give the collector a try, and let us know which StorageGRID dashboards you'd like to see next.

• 🎩 The REST collectors are ready! We recommend using them for ONTAP versions 9.12.1 and higher. Today, Harvest collects 1,546 metrics via ZAPI. Harvest includes a full set of REST templates that export identical metrics. All 1,546 metrics are available via Harvest's REST templates and no changes to dashboards or downstream metric-consumers is required. 🎉 More details on Harvest's REST strategy.

• 📕 Harvest has a new documentation site! This consolidates Harvest documentation into one place and will make it easier to find what you need. Stay tuned for more updates here.

• 💎 New and improved dashboards

  • cDOT, high-level cluster overview dashboard
  • Headroom dashboard
  • Quota dashboard
  • Snapmirror dashboard shows source and destination side of relationship
  • NFS clients dashboard
  • Fabric Pool panels are now included in Volume dashboard
  • Tags are included for all default dashboards, making it easier to find what you need
  • Additional throughput, ops, and utilization panels were added to the Aggregate, Disk, and Clusters dashboards
  • Harvest dashboards updated to enable multi-select variables, shared crosshairs, better top n resources support, and all variables are sorted by default.

• 🔒 Harvest code is checked for vulnerabilities on every commit using Go's vulnerability management scanner.

• Harvest collects additional metrics in this release

  • ONTAP S3 server config metrics
  • User defined volume workload
  • Active network connections
  • NFS connected clients
  • Network ports
  • Netstat packet loss

• Harvest now converts ONTAP histograms to Prometheus histograms, making it possible to visualize metrics as heatmaps in Grafana

Announcements

‼️ IMPORTANT NetApp moved their communities from Slack to Discord, please join us there!

💣 Deprecation: Earlier versions of Harvest published quota metrics prefixed with qtree. Harvest release 22.11 deprecates the quota metrics prefixed with qtree and instead publishes quota metrics prefixed with quota. All dashboards have been updated. If you are consuming these metrics outside the default dashboards, please change to quota prefixed metrics. Harvest release 23.02 will remove the deprecated quota metrics prefixed with qtree.

‼️ IMPORTANT If using Docker Compose and you want to keep your historical Prometheus data, please read how to migrate your Prometheus volume

💡 IMPORTANT After upgrade, don't forget to re-import your dashboards, so you get all the new enhancements and fixes. You can import them via the bin/harvest/grafana import CLI, from the Grafana UI, or from the Maintenance > Reset Harvest Dashboards button in NAbox.

Known Issues

• Harvest does not calculate power metrics for AFF A250 systems. This data is not available from ONTAP via ZAPI or REST. See ONTAP bug 1511476 for more details.

• ONTAP does not include REST metrics for offbox_vscan_server and offbox_vscan until ONTAP 9.13.1. See ONTAP bug 1473892 for more details.

• Podman is unable to pull from NetApp's container registry cr.netapp.io. Until issue is resolved, Podman users can pull from a separate proxy like this podman pull netappdownloads.jfrog.io/oss-docker-harvest-production/harvest:latest.

• 7-mode filers that are not on the latest release of ONTAP may experience TLS connection issues with errors like tls: server selected unsupported protocol version 301 This is caused by a change in Go 1.18. The default for TLS client connections was changed to TLS 1.2 in Go 1.18. Please upgrade your 7-mode filers (recommended) or set tls_min_version: tls10 in your harvest.yml poller section. See TLS protocol version issue #1007 for more details.

• The Unix collector is unable to monitor pollers running in containers. See #249 for details.
