17. Provide the management node IP address, management node user ID (the user name is admin),
password that you set on the QoSSIOC Service Management tab of the registration utility, and vCenter
user ID and password.
In vSphere, the mNode Settings tab should display the mNode status as UP, which indicates
management node 11.1 is registered to vCenter.
18. From the management node registration utility
the SIOC service from QoSSIOC Service Management.
19. Wait for one minute and check the NetApp Element Configuration > mNode Settings tab. This should
display the mNode status as UP.
If the status is DOWN, check the permissions for /sf/packages/sioc/app.properties. The file
should have read, write, and execute permissions for the file owner. The correct permissions should
appear as follows:
-rwx------
20. After the SIOC process starts and vCenter displays mNode status as UP, check the logs for the
nma
service on the management node. There should be no error messages.
21. (For management node 11.1 only) SSH into the management node version 11.1 with root privileges and
start the NMA service with the following commands:
# systemctl enable /sf/packages/nma/systemd/sf-hci-nma.service
# systemctl start sf-hci-nma21
22. Perform actions from vCenter to remove a drive, add a drive or reboot nodes. This triggers storage alerts,
which should be reported in vCenter. If this is working, NMA system alerts are functioning as expected.
23. If ONTAP Select is configured in vCenter, configure ONTAP Select alerts in NMA by copying the
.ots.properties
/sf/packages/nma/conf/.ots.properties
command:
systemctl restart sf-hci-nma
24. Verify that ONTAP Select is working by viewing the logs with the following command:
journalctl -f | grep -i ots
25. Configure Active IQ by doing the following:
a. SSH in to the management node version 11.1 and go to the
b. Run the following command:
file from the previous management node to the management node version 11.1
11.1 IP
(https://<mNode
file, and restart the NMA service using the following
/sf/packages/collector
address>:9443), restart
sf-hci-
directory.
