Hey People. i am trying to enable the health dashboards and there is a message on editing the harvest.yml file.
most of the dashboards are collection data.
i am trying to figure out how to obtain the additional dashboards and what need to be configured to achieve it.
will appreciate any help.
thanks
attached the harvest.yml

hi @humble berry looks like you have everything enabled but the EMS collector. Using NAbox's UI can you check that you have select the Enable EMS collection toggle?
Hey Chris, thank you for the response. everything is enabled. but still no health dashboard information
Can you paste your harvest.yml again - the earlier version did not have Ems enabled. I want to make sure the harvest.yml matches your NAbox UX. Since you are using nabox4, you want this one /etc/nabox/harvest/harvest.yml
That info is static text that will always be visible or hidden if you press the twistie, but either way that text has no bearing on what's in your harvest.yml file
this is new instance that i redeployed as my previous version got ruined with my tests 🙂
Can you collect a support bundle from Nabox and email it to us so we can take a look at your logs for any problems? https://netapp.github.io/harvest/nightly/help/log-collection/
sure will do.
i believe it will be tommrrow
thank you for the help Chris so far
no problem! We'll take a look at the log files when you get a chance to send them
@humble berry I could able to see that ems template is being enabled and parsed, But there is no active ems in Ontap cluster in that poll duration, that's where Harvest exports 0 instances, which is as expected.
Jul 29 12:07:17 nabox4 dc[1420]: havrest | 2024-07-29T12:07:17Z INF ems/ems.go:338 > Poller=Maronny collector=Ems:Ems total instances=0
Could you say more about what are the panels in Health Dashboard would be having No Data or blank, which help us understand more about the issue here.
Hey Leuva, what do you mean about the ems on ontap during the poll ? i have active alerst / issues during this time that isnt showed up in the grafana . is there anything else that i need to configured in the cluster itself for getting specific ems alerts ?
the only thing that i am able to see is the error of lif not at home port showing in the grafana.
is the No Data a good state and this is how it should be ?
@humble berry that dashboard will only show problems that Harvest has detected. "No data" will be shown when there are no problems or there is a setup problem. We saw in your logs that Harvest is collecting fine.
Harvest collects a very focused set of EMS events https://github.com/NetApp/harvest/blob/main/conf/ems/9.6.0/ems.yaml#L4, while SystemManager collects all of them.
The health dashboard shows only emergency EMS events because the EMS system is quite chatty and we are wanting to give only actionable EMS events.
Ok, understood. then i am happy to hear that. 🙂
thank you very much for all the help Much appriciated Chris ! 🙂
we'll update that dashboard to make it clearer
