nblade.fpolicy.extn.failed

Severity

EMERGENCY

Description

This message occurs when an I/O operation directed at a FlexCache® volume fails because the file extension include and exclude list of one of the policies is too long to send to the origin of the FlexCache volume.

Corrective Action

Decrease the number of file extensions configured in the include and exclude list in the FPolicy scope by using the "fpolicy policy scope modify" command.

Syslog Message

FPolicy processing failed on volume MSID "%lu", for Vserver ID "%lu", policy ID "%lu", as the combined length for the file extension include and exclude list is greater than %llu. Decrease the number of file extensions configured.

Parameters

msid (LONGINT): MSID of FlexCache volume.
vserverid (LONGINT): ID of the Vserver.
policyid (LONGINT): ID of the FPolicy.
maxmimumListLengthAllowed (LONGINT): Maximum length that can be sent to the origin volume.

Nblade.fpolicy.flow.control

Severity

ERROR

Description

This message occurs when FPolicy flow control is engaged due to large number of file operations being monitored by FPolicy. If this condition persists, there might be an adverse effect on client operation latency.

Corrective Action

Check the FPolicy configuration to make sure that only intended file operations are monitored and appropriate filters are applied.

Syslog Message

FPolicy flow control is engaged as the monitored file operations rate crossed the sustainable limit[%d] for this platform.

Parameters

flowControlLimit (INT): Maximum number of file operations per second that can be monitored by FPolicy.

nblade.fpolicy.policy.skip

Severity

EMERGENCY

Description

This message occurs when a non-mandatory FPolicy(tm) policy check is skipped while processing an I/O on the FlexCache® volume because the file extension include and exclude list of the policy is too long to send to the origin volume of the FlexCache volume. The error does not fail the operation and other policies, if any, are matched.

Corrective Action

Decrease the number of file extensions configured in the include and exclude list in the FPolicy scope by using the "fpolicy policy scope modify" command.

Syslog Message

FPolicy check is skipped for a non-mandatory policy ID "%lu" on volume MSID "%lu" for Vserver ID "%lu" because the combined length for the file extension include and exclude list is greater than %llu.

Parameters

policyid (LONGINT): ID of the FPolicy policy.
msid (LONGINT): MSID of the FlexCache volume.
vserverid (LONGINT): ID of the Vserver.
maximumListLengthAllowed (LONGINT): Maximum length that can be sent to the origin volume.
