[mrtg] mrtg-ntap-probe release 0.4.0 - volume disk reports added, netcache hitrate/url retrieval reports dropped

[Peter W. Osel]

Hi *

I have released version 0.4.0 of mrtg-ntap-probe.  mrtg-ntap-probe
retrieves the disk and file (inode) utilization by volume or quota tree
name, so you do not need to find the right OID, which might change over
time as you add and/or remove volumes and quota trees.

Your Network Appliance filer needs to run Data Ontap 5.1R1 or better
(the new volume aware releases), the Network Appliance NetCache needs
to run NetCache 5.1 or better.


As always, the latest version of mrtg-ntap-probe is available at
	http://pwo.de/projects/mrtg/ or
	ftp://ftp.pwo.de/pub/pwo/mrtg/mrtg-ntap-probe/


Major changes between the new version 0.4.0 (2002-06-09) and the
previous version 0.3.2 (2000-09-02):

	* added volume based report (-r vol-df)

	* dropped hit rate and url fetch time reports
		Major incompatible change: starting with release 0.4.0
		mrtg-ntap-probe no longer retrieves object and byte hit
		rate and url retrieval rates from NetCache web proxy
		server! Current NetCache releases provide these values
		directly through SNMP, see the NEWS file and the sample
		configuration file for examples.


	* tested with and adapted for Network Appliance NetCache
	Appliance release 5.3R1 and Data Ontap 6.2R2.


BTW, if you have access to Network Appliances' software library on
now.netapp.com, you should check out their mrtg-filer and mrtg-netcache
packages.

Share & Enjoy!
