NetApp administrators often face the challenge of efficiently managing complex storage environments while bearing significant responsibility. BVQ° offers a tailored solution that enables comprehensive and detailed monitoring and management of NetApp systems. By integrating NetApp quota analysis into BVQ° dashboards, administrators can precisely control and manage storage space and file counts.

Comprehensive data analysis & visualization

BVQ° collects data via the REST interface of NetApp ONTAP systems using a read-only user and stores it in its own database. This data is retained for as long as the customer desires, ensuring that proof of an optimally running storage infrastructure is always available.

The powerful BVQ° Fat Client allows all collected data to be displayed in tabular form and sorted according to custom criteria. Administrators can create specific views, define favorites, and export the data to Excel or provide it as an external data source.

Effective Alerting & Reporting

Another useful feature of BVQ° is its extensive filtering capability, which allows for the creation of targeted alerts. BVQ° offers a wide range of predefined alerts with customizable thresholds and also enables users to create new, custom alerts.

 

These alerts can be applied to specific clusters, SVMs, volumes, or protocols and forwarded via email or to ITSM tools. Additionally, reports can be created and scheduled via the web server, taking into account all relevant objects and metrics.

Conclusion

BVQ° provides a powerful and flexible solution for NetApp administrators who want to ensure efficient management and monitoring of their systems. With its extensive analysis, alerting and visualization capabilities, BVQ° contributes to IT infrastructure optimization and significantly reduces administrative effort. With BVQ°, administrators have a reliable tool at hand to help them meet the complex demands of their NetApp environments.
