I see a very simple attribute to monitor overall status of IBM Arrays (DS3/4/5/6/8k and SVC) called "Array Status." I'm hoping that if there is a hardware error on one of these devices that will bubble up through this status metric.
I can't find anything similar for NetApp/nSeries. I don't even see anything about monitoring for a failover. I do see under Events / Summary the Chart tool comes up with the "Data is not available message." The dropdown for Chart allows you to chose Critical, Debug, Error, Informational, etc. and there is Device Name dropdown that is empty. What is this?
Anyone know the answer?
