#Gap for cpu utilization in harvest and PA

Hi,
we are monitoring cpu utilization by using "node_cpu_busy"
And from image1, you can see the cpu utilization in harvest is keep growing.

And we collect the performance archive to find the reason for this increase. But the value in PA has no significant increase. And the description of that PA is in image2. I suppose they are using the same metric?

#

@fathom wren Please help to confirm this issue? Thanks

@fervent knot
Could you compare metric value node_cpu_busy with below ONTAP CLI command in diag mode?
They do match for me.

statistics show-periodic -interval 60 -iterations 10 -object system:node -counter cpu_busy -instance NODE_NAME

@fathom wren Do you know if the PA using the same metric?

fathom wren
#

I am not sure about PA value. CLI mapping I gave above is the value represented by Harvest.

fervent knot
#

@fathom wren Is there any possible reason that only this cluster has increasing value at that period? We checked the AIQUM and PA, but the value has no significant increase.
We also checked the CLI, and it does map to the harvest value after the value is lower down.

@fervent knot We are not aware of any bugs in this area. What is the Harvest version?

fervent knot
#

harvest 24.05
But only one cluster shows this increment,
others are normal.
So not knowing how to explain the increment during that period

fathom wren
#

Let's monitor this cluster via the CLI I shared above for cpu_busy data for a couple of days and observe the values against Harvest. If the values deviate significantly, we will know if there is a bug in Harvest.

What is PA ASUP ID? I'd be glad to look.

solid rock
#

Oh nice. 🙂

#

WAFL_Exempt went up.

fervent knot
#

@solid rock Yes, but from the PA CPU utilization table, the average line doesn't have significant increase like what we see in harvest

solid rock
#

Yeah. @fathom wren or @kind spindle which counter is being used for Harvest?

fathom wren
#

Harvest uses similiar metric as presented by below ONTAP CLI

statistics show-periodic -interval 60 -iterations 10 -object system:node -counter cpu_busy -instance NODE_NAME

Hmm. That's the same metric PAS uses.
