I talked to one of the NLS folks. This seems to be an issue after the switch to SSO and they are working on it. So it should be your netapp SSO login.

Hello! I can’t find the correct rest api endpoint on the netapp cluster to get the cpu statistics. I was not able to figure out the way to covert the cli command as a cli pass through endpoint. I did follow the guide but since the command “qos statistics performance show -node nodename” is quite large couldn’t convey it to a cli passthrough form. Kept failing with 405, api not found error . Is there a better way to get this info through api?

I've heard, sadly, that NetApp got hit by more layoffs last week. Here are some positive thoughts to those folks and hope they land on their feet quickly.

Afaik just some of the earlier layoffs in Europe took some time to get finalised. I only know based on who I know that got let go

#

... are customers allowed access to fusion anymore?
I know I had it at one point but after the federation changes it's no more.

turbid hornet
#

Afaik customers never had access to Fusion (or the several predecessors like TRT, SPM, UP and whatnot). These were meant for sizing new systems or for tech refreshes (also to move from 7-Mode to cDOT) and were only accessible by NetApp and partners I think.

signal phoenix
#

I definitely was able to mucky muck around in it before, but I respect not being able to because internal only.

The old windows app probably worked for customers?

There was a point where you could send a project URL to a customer and they could view it. Don't think that works anymore though.

You’ll need some special QSFP cables as well, depending on which HBA you end up going with, but yes it’ll work fine. The important thing is that you get an HBA, and not a raid controller. Or that the raid controller can operate in a passthru HBA-Mode. Most of the LSI 9k cards are perfect for this.

i suspect this would be done through ipmi?

im a complete noob btw. I have some experience i gatherd with the r720

dry herald

so these are sold as appliances, meaning we don't make documentation for off-brand use of them

nor do we really have it internally

you could try IPMI, sure

yea. I'm just trying to find the raw command for this machine

so you have it plugged in by VGA and USB?

dry herald
#

afaik even though it's a blue and white text one, it is UEFI? I'm just going by what docs I can find 🙂

white kestrel
#

it's just whatever comes up when i hit delete in post

#

can you provide the official user manual for this thing? i can't find it

#

i'm also guessing the reason why Quanta doesn't have the user manual for it is because this model is specifically made for netapp

dry herald
#

there isn't really one. we provide docs on how to install our OS on there, and some troubleshooting docs on our website, but that's it

#

probably, yes

white kestrel
#

i'd imagine your OS download is behind a service contract requirement so that manual won't be of use to us 😂

#

i'd be curious to play with whatever it is though

dry herald
#

it's a clustering based one, so you need three of them

white kestrel
#

makes sense

dry herald
white kestrel
#

we bout to find out

hoary quiver
#

thank you kindly 🙏

white kestrel
#

that's my biggest rub with a lot of server mfg's is they don't give you easy ways to control the fans

#

Dell is about the only vendor that has a method

#

Quanta has IPMI RAW commands for the previous gen 1U in this lineup but they don't work on this one, probably cause of the netapp-specific ipmi firmware

dry herald
#

what commands are they?

white kestrel
#

ipmitool raw 0x30 0x39 0x01 0x1 0x1 0x3f

hoary quiver
#

thats for the Quanta D51B-2U

white kestrel
#

or another one was something like
ipmitool raw 0x30 0x39 0x01 0x10x1 0x3f
Set BP fan 1 to 63% duty

#

slightly different syntax

#

this format was also recommended and didn't work
ipmitool raw 0x30 0x39 0x01 0x00x 0x03 0x32

dry herald
#

ipmitool sensor list should work

#

to list the temperature sensors/values

white kestrel
#

It does.

#

but apart from that the functions to control any sort of fan response are unknown.

dry herald
#

and it's showing them all at ~9500rpm

white kestrel
#

something like that, yeah

#

a tad over 10k

#

I haven't tried the Supermicro commands yet - their ipmi is also based on the AST2500 so they might be similar

#

but that was more for adjusting at what temp the fans respond, not the fans directly

white kestrel
dry herald
#

try ipmitool raw 0x30 0x39 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x3f

hoary quiver
#

that turned up the fans

white kestrel
#

it returns 00 00

#

oh hey

#

we're getting somewhere

hoary quiver
#

yeaa

#

or turned SOME of the fans up

white kestrel
#

let's see if that was all of em

dry herald
#

that should be the main fan (fan1)

#

main/ whatever is fan1

hoary quiver
#

hes right

dry herald
#

basically third byte should be 0 instead of 1

hoary quiver
#

15000

#

rpms

white kestrel
#

Fan_SYS0_0 and Fan_SYS1_1

#

so, fan 1

#

or technically 0

#

so that's hex

dry herald
#

yeah

white kestrel
#

63

#

so if we want it lower

dry herald
#

try ipmitool raw 0x30 0x39 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x10

white kestrel
#

yep

hoary quiver
#

that worked

#

still some on

white kestrel
#

ok lemme dump this in a bash script rq

#

i'm guessing the last 0x00 is the fan id

dry herald
#

yeah, iterate second last command value to go through fans

#

yep

white kestrel
#

yeah it's at 4800rpm now

#

ipmitool raw 0x30 0x39 0x00 0x00 x x will set fan control to manual, so you'll need to make sure there's a way to ramp up the fans if it gets too hot

omg its so much quieter

#

HOLY SMOKES

#

thank you so much!

#

make sure you can feel airflow

hoary quiver
#

ok

#

i dont feel it

is the lid on? 😄

#

@dry herald i have a fan control script that does this for Dell, it's gonna be trivial to reconfigure it to loop over 7 commands and make it work

hoary quiver
#

yea the lid is on

dry herald
#

set the values a bit higher than 0x10 I'd say

#

you should feel the exhaust

hoary quiver

#

Duty range is from 0%(0x00) to 100% (0x64)

but i didnt feel much air coming out

how bout that

#

lets see

that's 6500 RPM, we were at 5500

hoary quiver
#

yes thats perfect

white kestrel
#

25% cycle

hoary quiver
#

yea

#

is it coming out strongly or more like a gentle breeze

#

we do need some flow

#

@dry herald was this knowledge in a document we can have?

hoary quiver
#

i think

#

let me feel again

#

isnt it supposed to exhaust on both sides?

white kestrel
#

no

hoary quiver
#

oh ok

#

just 1 side

#

alright

white kestrel
#

like front and back? no

hoary quiver
#

front?

white kestrel
#

or you mean both sides in the back

hoary quiver
#

yea both sides on the back

#

my fault

white kestrel
#

the PSUs have separate fans

#

the main airflow will be in the middle

hoary quiver
#

yea

#

ok

#

thats whati mean

#

the main airflow in the middle is only coming out of the right side

#

next to the psu fans

white kestrel
#

ok ima turn it up another couple notches

#

how's the noise level

hoary quiver
#

alright

#

its good

#

bearable

#

thank you

#

dont even hear it much with the door closed

white kestrel
#

that's 30%

#

noise and strength?

#

#

curious about this though:
ipmitool raw 0x30 0x39 0x00 0x00 x x

#

no, I mean ipmitool raw 0x30 0x39 0x00 0x00 <FAN> <SPEED>

white kestrel
#

oh, you meant setting them like this puts them in manual mode

dry herald
#

yeah

white kestrel
#

was there one to set it back to auto

#

I'd imagine if it's anything like Dell it's probably something like
ipmitool raw 0x30 0x39 0x00 0x01 0x00

dry herald
#

didn't see one in the doc I found it in

white kestrel
#

yeah, Dell has all the fans controlled by one value;

# Set Fan Control Mode to Automatic
ipmitool raw 0x30 0x30 0x01 0x01

#Set Manual fan control mode (speed argument separate)
ipmitool raw 0x30 0x30 0x01 0x00

# Set fan speed (YY HEX Value)
ipmitool raw 0x30 0x30 0x02 0xff 0xYY

#

Hello everyone, guys, I have the opportunity to buy this netapp model (H610S 1U) very cheaply, completely new and full of nvme disks. After studying the netapp website, I came to the conclusion that this technology has already reached the end of its life. And now the question is, does netapp have the ability to turn it into a regular nas or use it as an esxi host? There are completely no instructions or attempts to do this on the Internet, at least I haven’t found one.

polar nebula
# hoary quiver true.

Friend, can I ask you how you installed proxmox and what problems other than fan speed did you encounter?

real peak
# polar nebula Hello everyone, guys, I have the opportunity to buy this netapp model (H610S 1U)...

I believe that these are BLOCK devices - not NAS. Your biggest problem, though, is likely to be software licenses. NetApp licenses are typically not transferable and getting a license for an end-of-life piece of hardware could be challenging. Even if you got licenses, you'd still need a server in front of it to mount the block device and serve up NAS.

This is obviously not for production or you wouldn't be buying EOL hardware. Pick up a low-cost Synology Diskstation instead and you'll have NAS and ESXi support...

I won't be able to post the job posting for my replacement on the job board since I won't be working for SARC any longer and they haven't finalized the posting yet so that would break group rules. Keep a lookout on LinkedIn if you're interested in and qualified for the lead storage admin position for a large on-premise EDA environment (ONTAP + FabricPool plus some other stuff ). Must be fluent in NFS and therefore you should have good Linux skills. Automation skills will help you (there are channels and people here to help you :)).

# safe ruin I mean getting the latest firmware for them since the firmware i currently have ...

Which bugs are you experiencing? I have successfully installed both Linux and BSD on various HCI nodes in the past and it has always worked fine.
Long story short: Don't think that a new firmware will fix bugs you encounter in homelab usage. They are not tested with nonsupported operating systems and/or PCIe cards, so any bug you have now will almost certainly still be there with newer firmware. If you can, try and locate the firmware from the original manufacturer (SuperMicro in this case)

Im still trying to find a good hypervisor that I can install onto Mac Mini, can manage multiple VMs, and emulate the M1 chip, allowing me to run Ventura.

#

Nevermind, ProxMox cannot emulate M1.

green umbra
#

I just saw something on this the other day

#

If you're running MacOS the hypervisor is all built-in on Apple Silicon, most things are just a front-end for Apple's own stuff. Breaking out of that is hard mode for sure.

#

This allows Apple Silicon to emulate x86/x64 via either rosetta or QEMU, I think. Still need to play more.

This costs money, but ten dollars is more palatable on a maybe.

I only need to run stuff on M1 chip, no other emulation, we have other machines for that.

but you lose the autoupdates the store gives you

#

Ill test it out and if we like it we will probably buy a proper license.

I hope it works. Ive tried ESXi (failure, I thought it was just lack of support but instead its just straight missing drivers) Virtualbox (wont recognize input devices) Parallels (wont run more than two) so... yeah. :V

green umbra
#

ESXi can't do any kind of emulation, it'll just expose whatever the host has and in the case of ARM that's still a little unsupported.

#

The 2 VM limit is a part of the new Apple MacOS Hypervisor stack, IIRC.

#

I think that limit goes up if you run it on a Mac Studio or Pro, but I'm no expert.

and the limit becomes like 4 or something.

Hi all . I´m installing another IP MC with SN2100 NVIDIA switches , now i´m trying to upgrade to 9.13 but i need to change the cumulus linux version on SN2100. anyone knows how to get the image from NVIDIA? i can´t via app hub .

You will need an nvidia Support account, apparently. Had a coworker who asked me the same thing earlier today

@merry kraken I have Meshtastic running... i'm gonna need more nodes.

@hidden girder I got like... 4 radios now. 2 t-beams, 2 wisblock. check out https://meshmap.net/ and you can see nodes on linked into mqtt.

merry kraken
#

Heltec is nice and small. I need some Wisblock cases. I want to use that radio for a remote/travel node because it’s got like a week battery

#

This one here is a great kit.

#

This node is sitting on my patio in a plastic box right now. It has ran almost 5 days on a single change. I just recharged it like Friday I think

merry kraken
#

@hidden girder you are gonna get that msh/US fire hose. My router node is on msh/US/KY

hidden girder
#

Yes. I am. I tried to narrow it like yours.

#

I added too much to the string. Fixed now to msh/US/KY

merry kraken
#

Node info only gets sent like once an hour so it can take a bit to populate

#

My home node looks off line for some reason.

merry kraken
#

I saw your node!

hidden girder
#

i'm not seeing nodes anymore since i changed that root topic to msh/US/KY

merry kraken
#

Yeah you will only see people in the same topic. A few of us were trying to split out by state because when you hit 200 nodes your radio might not be happy and do stuff like crash and boot loop

hidden girder
#

so if i have root topic set, does that limit messages for all channels to that region?

merry kraken
#

topic only matters to MQTT. not lora. But if you set like a channel named 'tacos' it would be msh/US/KY/2/e/tacos

#

LongFast is the primary topic / lora channel

#

msh/US/KY/2/e/LongFast

#

an ideal world, mqtt wouldn't need to be used much since you are meshing around town

#

for a conference, maybe do a router/repeater on a node, then tell everyone the topic

hidden girder
#

yes. mqtt is kinda wild. feels like for your pitch to use it at insight... mqtt would be awesome for everyone on their way in

merry kraken
#

yeah mqtt is like I want to join 2 meshes together

#

or 3

#

or whatever you are trying to do. setup a router/repeater, put that on mqtt, all the clients will mesh with it

#

I wonder of far lora can go through the MGM

#

if you have people in the right spots you could get coverage I bet

#

client -> client -> MQTT -> client -> client -> client

hidden girder
#

900mhz... it'll be hampered by crappy antennas, lots of concrete and interference. if enough people attend with nodes it will overcome the obstacles. if @fresh helm and @fast needle let us toss a few extra nodes in strategic places at the event... it would help. 🙂 put them on the event wifi if they need MQTT

merry kraken
#

there was a use case for meshtastic at burning man. not really the same use case though

#

it's not like you can stick a radio on your RV

fresh helm

We'll stick it under the table with contact info so people don't think it's malicious if discovered haha

Probably want to not replace the primary channel. Otherwise no one can find me

Yes. Its a secondary channel on mine.

Today I was reminded - Jeff Bezos and NetApp founder Dave Hitz were college roommates

I have the channel set to uplink and downlink. They show a cloud beside them and aren't failing anymore.

This is the other one I made using that psk

Did you clear the primary channel name and set it to default for the key

#

Your node ain’t showing

IMG_6734.png

For a while

hidden girder
#

I turned on TLS and it broke it.
I never removed the primary channel LongFast, left it alone. I just created a new one and the psk was auto generated.

merry kraken
#

ah ok

#

maybe buggie since it wants to overwite it :p

yeah no need for TLS on the default mqtt server

Guys my NCDA will expired soon(two days left)

How can i renewal this?

Should i retake exam? It's hard to foreigner!!

crystal field
#

you can either take the NCDA or go straight to one of the NCIE exams, since those will renew the NCDA

#

the NCDA is not that hard if you have worked with ONTAP for a few months, especially with the time bonus you get as non-native speaker

noble python
#

I don't think, time is an issue for certifications... native-speaker or not... I have never spent more than 50% of the allowed time

mild hazel
#

Tests are writen with non-native speakers in mind. so hopefully it shouldn't be to much of any issue.

crystal field
#

that reminds me about the one time, at Insight, where I arrived at the certification area some 90 minutes or so before it closed, trying to convince the staff that yes, I want to do another certification, and yes, I know that it's one that has 3 hours allotted and I'm confident that I can do it in time and I'm okay with failing if I don't. I think it took 5 minutes or so until they let me take the exam. And I did finish it in slightly over an hour and just in time 😉

#

It was a new certification that apparently only very few people had taken before, IIRC it was the Cloud Architect or Cloud Administrator one... But I remember even Brandi (back when she managed the certification program) was rather surprised that someone managed to finish it so quickly and pass 😄

noble python
#

yeah, I know these discussions... but as long as you could convince Brandi, everything worked out.... I remember asking questions to the pearsson vue guys and getting the same answer several times: "Brandi knows..." 😉

The pillars aren't wide enough for an inventory tag or label, and the left most pillar has electronic protection film for some stupid reason and that can't be seen in normal (crappy) data center lighting and since the rest of the pillars look dirty, I didn't notice the film until labeling a sixteen systems.

In the slide above you can see the left most AFF pillar is different, but in crappy data center lighting, no chance
