Installing the Cluster Switch Health Monitor (CSHM) configuration file

You can use this procedure to install the applicable configuration file for cluster switch health monitoring of BES-53248 cluster switches.

Before you begin

Before you setup the switch health monitor for BES-53248 cluster switches, you must ensure that the ONTAP cluster is up and running.
  1. Download the cluster switch health monitor configuration zip file based on the corresponding ONTAP release version. This file is available from the https://datacentersupport.lenovo.com/ page.
  2. Upload the applicable zip file to your internal web server where the IP address is X.X.X.X.

    Example

    For an internal web server IP address of 192.168.2.20 and assuming a /usr/download directory exists, you can upload your zip file to your web server using scp:
    % scp Broadcom_BES-53248.zip admin@192.168.2.20:/usr/download/Broadcom_BES-53248.zip
  3. Access the advanced mode setting from one of the ONTAP systems in the cluster, using the command set-privilege advanced:

    Example

    cluster1::> set -privilege advanced
  4. Run the switch health monitor configure command system cluster-switch configure-health-monitor -controller * -package-url X.X.X.X/location_to_download_zip_file:

    Example

    cluster1::> system cluster-switch configure-health-monitor -controller * -package-url 192.168.2.20/usr/download/Broadcom_BES-53248.zip
  5. Verify that the command output contains the text string "downloaded package processed successfully". If an error occurs, contact Lenovo support.
  6. Run the command system cluster-switch show on the ONTAP system and ensure that the cluster switches are discovered with the monitored field set to "True".

    Example

    cluster1::> system cluster-switch show

    Note
    If at any time you revert to an earlier version of ONTAP, you will need to install the CSHM configuration file again to enable switch health monitoring of BES-53248 cluster switches.
