Product Release Date: 2021-12-13

Last updated: 2021-12-15

What's New

Following are the new features in this release:

Collector Portal Bulk Change

The Collector Portal Application now provides you an option to edit the properties of multiple VMs at one go. The Bulk Change button is added to VM List tab that allows you to edit the properties such as power On/Off, Target Cluster, vCPUs, Memory (MiB), Thin Provisioned, Capacity (MiB), and Consumed (MiB) as needed.

Collector Portal Login Page Modifications

The Collector Portal login page now has the hyperlink that allows you to download the Collector Desktop Application package.

Collector Portal Sizing Details

Collector Portal 4.0 introduces the Sizing Details option that allows you to view the Sizer scenarios associated with the Collector projects.

Collector Portal Export checks for undersizing

If any of the powered OFF VM reports CPU utilization when the Collector data is being exported to Sizer or imported from Sizer, a warning message appears with the potential issue and recommendations.

Updated Features

Following are the feature updates made in this release:

ONTAP CIFS Shares

The ONTAP CIFS Shares are now generally available.

ONTAP CIFS shares - Home Directory column added

The Collector output exported as an XLSX includes a new column "Home Directory" within the CIFS Share Info tab. This column shows whether the shares are configured as part of the CIFS home directory.

  • Volume Group Capacity (MiB) - This column shows the number of vDisks capacities that are part of the volume group.
  • Volume Group Consumed (MiB) - This column shows the number of vPartition capacities that are part of the volume group.
Prism, Hyper-V, and v-Center - New column added in vPartition tab

The following new column is added in the vPartition tab:

  • Volume Group Partition - This column shows whether the partition is part of the volume group.
Multiple NIC support for Prism Element
If a VM supports multiple Network Interface Cards (NICs), the Collector output (except for ONTAP CIFS shares) exported as an XLSX shows all the supported NICs in the vNetwork tab.
Provisioned Capacity
The provisioned capacity has been made to a default storage while exporting the compute workload through Prism, vCenter, Hyper-V and ONTAP CIFS shares.
Enhancements

The following features are available in the release:

  • In the project view screen of ONTAP projects, the user interface has been updated to let the users know that the option Export to Sizer is available only from Collector 4.1 and later versions.
  • In case of powered off VMs, the Prism now shows the performance data value as 'null' instead of 0 and the histogram chart is updated accordingly in the VMs Summary.
  • A specific error message is displayed in cases when someone registered to Collector but not to Sizer, tries to export the collected data to Sizer.
  • In the Collector Portal, optimized the process of fetching VM information for larger projects.

Resolved Issues

The following issues are resolved in this release:

  • The data center name is now correctly identified by the Collector for the Prism Element clusters.
  • Improved the time taken to collect the information via Prism when Collector is unable to collect the Guest OS information.
  • For Prism instances, Collector can now collect the cluster performance data even if there are intermittent errors when gathering the performance metrics.
  • Resolved an issue in collecting the vNetwork data for AOS 5.20.2.1 (AHV - 20201105.2244) and higher versions.
  • Collector can now collect the data for multiple network interface cards that are associated with a single VM.
  • Resolved an issue where the Collector Portal was unable to generate XLSX file when NetApp ONTAP Volume did not report Consumed Capacity and Snapshot Reserved Capacity.
