#Manually add StorageGrid to NABox 3.3?

Is there any documentation to manually add a StorageGrid array to NABox 3.3? I know built in support is in the pipeline, was just wondering if there's a way to do it currently.

Hi @shadow robin I don't see anything in nabox's documentation so I'm guessing no. @hollow wave is that right?

@shadow robin if you don't want to wait you can always run Harvest natively or via rpm, deb, docker compose, etc. Nabox is one way, out of many, to install Harvest with Prometheus and Grafana

Yes you can add it manually in harvest.yaml and it won’t be overwritten

I will say NABox is an awesome project. It makes deploying the monitoring for the ontap stack incredibly easy. Keep up the good work!

If you search here, you'll find it. From my config in /opt/harvewt2-conf/harvest.yml.
Go to your grid and create a harvest admin user. Add a block for your grid:
gridname: addr: gridadminnode.example.com autostart: '1' collectors: - StorageGrid datacenter: enter_your_dc_here exports: - prometheus1 password: supersecretpassword prometheus_port: 12995 use_insecure_tls: true username: harvest

Restart your nabox services. You'll see your grid in the admin page in nabox now. Reset your dashboards if you haven't done it lately. Grab the latest stable releases of both nabox and harvest (obviously).

Thanks for the example! I was able to get this working today.

@exotic shadow I'm curious about your exports key, it doesn't seem to be mentioned in the docs

You're not really implying anybody can find anything on Discord ?

Can I get an estimate when we can expect StorageGrid support in NAbox? Is it 2 weeks, two months, two years? I need to make the decision to wait or to invest time and get it working in NAbox 3.3

You should set it up manually in NAbox, it's supported, it's juste yoou don't have a UI yet to configure it

exotic shadow
#

It's not hard to get it working. Maybe 10 minutes if you've had your coffee first.

#

Yes, it was very simple. RE: the exports key in the example. I actually excluded that from my configuration without any issue.

Did you restart?

#

you could also add your block of yaml back and then use harvest doctor to validate it
dc exec -w /conf nabox-harvest2 /netapp-harvest/bin/harvest doctor

#

GRID block is back: no error

#

nabox:/opt/harvest2-conf# dc exec -w /conf nabox-harvest2 /netapp-harvest/bin/harvest doctor
nabox:/opt/harvest2-conf#

ebon fulcrum
#

that's good. What version of Harvest and nabox are you using?

upbeat heart
#

latest 3.3

#

problem is with the GRID block ONTAP System dropped from monitoring. Dashboards shows 0 Clusters reporting...

hollow wave
#

If it doesn't show in the UI it has to be an issue with the config file

upbeat heart
#

If I remove the GRID block all is fine again

hollow wave
#

ok so you're adding it wrong 🙂

#

probably indentation issue ?

upbeat heart
#

what is wrong?

doctor should catch indentation issues. Log files should say something. Feel free to email log file and harvest.yml at the address shared above and we'll take a look

#

ok

#

mails sent, thanks

#

cool, the +2 spaces worked. Many THanks. Great Support.

Hello, ist SAML Auth supported with nabox?

#

if yes, how to configure?

thanks, and the ask is for SAML auth to nabox or for Harvest to use SAML auth when talking to ONTAP clusters?
