Issue/Introduction
VMAX probe Metric QOS_STORAGE_SYMM_MEM_WP_MAX_PERCENT is returning 0 values consistently. This may be normal. However, we found the following error in the vmax.log file:
2017-08-02 11:54:37,280 [CommandPoolExecutor_0_213] INFO PERF: DONE: Command.ProcessResult: symstat -type MEMIO -sid 000195700853 -i 90 overwrite -c 1 -out xml {Seconds=0.000} {output=localhost.000195700853.memiostats.xml}
2017-08-02 11:54:37,280 [CommandPoolExecutor_0_213] ERROR Error while processing 'symstat -type MEMIO -sid 000195700853 -i 90 overwrite -c 1 -out xml'
com.bt.probes.exception.ExtractorException: Error extracting data from file C:\Program Files (x86)\Nimsoft\probes\storage\vmax\data\localhost.000195700853.memiostats.xml
We ran the command manually.
symstat -type MEMIO -sid 000195700853 -i 90 overwrite -c 1 -out xml {Seconds=0.000} {output=localhost.000195700853.memiostats.xml}
This returned an error:
'overwrite': Illegal option
Cause
The "overwrite" flag may be an invalid flag for some versions of the EMC symstat command.
Environment
Resolution
Open the "Raw Configure" for the vmax probe.
Under the <setup> section, look for: "stats interval".
Change the value to "90" instead of "90 overwrite".
Additional Information
The metric QOS_STORAGE_SYMM_MEM_WP_MAX_PERCENT is only available in releases 1.40 and later of the UIM vmax probe.
