Install the cluster Switch Health Monitor (SHM) configuration file
Follow this procedure to install the applicable configuration file for cluster Switch Health Monitoring (SHM) of Nexus 9336C-FX2 cluster switches.
Before you set up the SHM for 9336C-FX2 cluster switches, make sure that the ONTAP cluster is up and running.
|
You should also enable SSH to use all features available in SHM. |
-
Download the cluster SHM configuration zip file based on the corresponding ONTAP release version. This file is available from the NetApp Software download page.
-
On the Software download page, select Switch Health Monitor Configuration Files
-
Select Platform = ONTAP and select Go!
-
On the Switch Health Monitor Configuration Files for ONTAP page, select View & Download
-
On the Switch Health Monitor Configuration Files for ONTAP > Description page, select Download for the applicable cluster switch model, for example: Cisco Nexus 9336C-FX2
-
On the End User License Agreement page, select Accept
-
On the Switch Health Monitor Configuration Files for ONTAP > Download page, select the applicable configuration file, for example, Cisco_Nexus_9336C-FX2.zip
-
-
Upload the applicable zip file to your internal web server where the IP address is X.X.X.X.
For an internal web server IP address of 192.168.2.20 and assuming a /usr/download directory exists, you can upload your zip file to your web server using scp:
% scp Cisco_Nexus_9336C-FX2.zip admin@192.168.2.20:/usr/download/Cisco_Nexus_9336C-FX2.zip
-
Access the advanced mode setting from one of the ONTAP systems in the cluster:
set-privilege advanced
cluster1::> set -privilege advanced
-
Run the switch health monitor configure command
system cluster-switch configure-health-monitor -node * -package-url X.X.X.X/location_to_download_zip_file
:cluster1::> system cluster-switch configure-health-monitor -node * -package-url 192.168.2.20/usr/download/Cisco_Nexus_9336C-FX2.zip
-
Verify that the command output contains the text string "downloaded package processed successfully". If an error occurs, contact NetApp support.
-
Run the command
system cluster-switch show
on the ONTAP system and make sure that the cluster switches are discovered with the monitored field set to "True".cluster1::> system cluster-switch show
If at any time you revert to an earlier version of ONTAP, you will need to install the SHM configuration file again to enable SHM of 9336C-FX2 cluster switches.
