wafl.snap.autoDel.policyChg

Severity

NOTICE

Description

This message occurs when the system detects a possible change in the autodelete or autosize policy of the volume. This can happen when a version of Data ONTAP® is loaded that might not support the reclaim policy currently set in the active filesystem.

Corrective Action

Unrecognized reclaim policy settings are cleared in the active file system. If you subsequently load a version of Data ONTAP® that recognizes the reclaim policy settings, you need to reestablish the policy settings using 'snap autodelete' or 'vol autosize' commands.

Syslog Message

Reclaim policy might have changed in %s %s%s%s%s. Check the 'snap autodelete' or 'vol autosize' command settings.

Parameters

type (STRING): Container type, either volume or aggregate.
owner (STRING): Volume owner.
vol (STRING): Volume name.
app (STRING): Application UUID.
volident (STRING): Unique identifier of the volume in cases where the volume name itself is insufficient.

wafl.snap.autoDelete

Severity

INFORMATIONAL

Description

This message occurs when the aggregate Snapshot™ copy reserve is full and Snapshot copies are being deleted to free space.

Corrective Action

If aggregate Snapshot copies are being deleted too frequently or while they are still being used, then consider the following options: o Increase the Snapshot copy reserve percentage for the aggregate. o Alter the aggregate Snapshot copy schedule to create less frequent Snapshot copies.

Syslog Message

Deleting Snapshot copy '%s' in aggregate '%s' to free up space.

Parameters

name (STRING): Snapshot copy name.
aggr (STRING): Aggregate name.

wafl.snap.autoDelete.createStateSnap.fail

Severity

INFORMATIONAL

Description

This event indicates that after auto-deletion of all aggregate snapshots, we have failed to take a state snapshot.

Corrective Action

(None).

Syslog Message

Unable to create snapshot '%s' in aggregate '%s': %s

Parameters

name (STRING): The snapshot name
vol (STRING): The volume name
err (STRING): Reason why the operation failed.

wafl.snap.autoDelete.fail

Severity

NOTICE

Description

This event indicates that the automatic deletion of a snapshot in an aggregate has failed. An appliance may automatically delete an aggregate snapshot if the aggregate snap reserve fills.

Corrective Action

The appliance will automatically retry the snapshot deletion shortly after the failure occurs. If the deletion succeeds then no corrective action is necessary. If deletion repeatedly fails then the aggregate could potentially become full. To address this please contact customer support.

Syslog Message

Unable to delete snapshot '%s' in aggregate '%s' to recover space: %s

Parameters

name (STRING): The snapshot name
aggr (STRING): The aggregate name
err (STRING): The reason why the deletion failed.

wafl.snap.create

Severity

NOTICE

Description

This message occurs when a Snapshot™ copy is created successfully.

Corrective Action

(None).

Syslog Message

Snapshot copy %s was created successfully for volume %s%s%s in %ld milliseconds.

Parameters

name (STRING): Snapshot copy name.
vol (STRING): Volume name.
app (STRING): Application UUID.
volident (STRING): Unique identifier of the volume when the volume name by itself is insufficient.
time (LONGINT): Time taken to create the Snapshot copy, in milliseconds.

wafl.snap.create.skip.reason

Severity

ERROR

Description

This message occurs when the creation of a Snapshot(tm) copy is skipped.

Corrective Action

Address the issue identified by the "reason" parameter. For example, if the reason is "Volume is too full", increase the volume size or free up disk space on the target volume.

Syslog Message

%s %s %s: Skipping creation of %s Snapshot copy (%s).

Parameters

vol (STRING): Volume name.
app (STRING): Application UUID.
volident (STRING): Unique volume identifier.
snapname (STRING): Name of the Snapshot copy being created.
reason (STRING): Reason for skipping the Snapshot copy.

wafl.snap.delete

Severity

INFORMATIONAL

Description

This message occurs when a Snapshot™ copy is deleted.

Corrective Action

(None).

Syslog Message

Snapshot copy %s on %s %s%s%s%s %s was deleted by the Data ONTAP function %s. The unique ID for this Snapshot copy is (%d, %d).

Parameters

snap_name (STRING): Name of the deleted Snapshot copy.
type (STRING): Container type (volume or aggregate).
owner (STRING): Volume or aggregate owner.
vol (STRING): Volume or aggregate name.
app (STRING): Application UUID.
volident (STRING): Unique identifier of the volume or aggregate when the volume or aggregate name by itself is insufficient.
vendor (STRING): Vendor name.
caller_func (STRING): Function in Data ONTAP® that invokes the deletion process.
snapid (INT): Numerical ID of the Snapshot copy. The (snapid, cp_count) pair uniquely identifies a Snapshot copy.
cp_count (INT): The CP (consistency point) count. The (snapid, cp_count) pair uniquely identifies a Snapshot copy.

wafl.snap.delete.32bit

Severity

INFORMATIONAL

Description

This message occurs when a Snapshot(tm) copy on an aggregate or volume is deleted because it has an unsupported 32-bit or mixed format file system.

Corrective Action

(None).

Parameters

type (STRING): Type of object (volume or aggregate).
owner (STRING): Volume owner.
vol (STRING): Volume name.
app (STRING): Application UUID.
volident (STRING): Unique identifier of the volume in cases where the volume name itself is insufficient.
snapid (INT): Numerical ID of the Snapshot copy. As a pair, the values of the "snapid" and "cp_count" parameters uniquely identify a Snapshot copy.
cp_count (INT): CP (consistency point) count. As a pair, the values of the "snapid" and "cp_count" parameters uniquely identify a Snapshot copy.

wafl.snap.delete.pending

Severity

INFORMATIONAL

Description
