Severity: ERROR
Description: This message occurs when the ONTAP® Status Service (OSS) monitor can not load any configured plug-ins. Not having any loaded plug-ins means that OSS monitor is not functional and needs to be fixed.
Corrective Action: Check the configuration under system status in diagnostic mode to make sure that the OSS monitor is configured correctly for the device being monitored. For example, to check that the hypervisor settings are correct for the monitoring of the SDOT hypervisor, show the configuration like this: set -privilege diagnostic; system status hypervisor show Adjust any settings, and then restart the monitor to see whether the plug-in load correctly: set -privilege diagnostic; system status restart -service mond For assistance contact NetApp technical support.
Syslog Message: OSS Monitor has not loaded any plug-ins. Reason: %s.
Parameters: reason (STRING): String containing additional information or reasons for the plug-in load failure.
