Overall Satisfaction with NetApp Active IQ

Two primary uses: (a) identify problematic configuration issues on our NetApp clusters, and (b) generate upgrade guides when patching/upgrading.

Pros

  • Makes us aware of configuration issues we wouldn't easily be aware of otherwise.
  • Generates automated documents guiding us through patching and upgrades to prevent problems.

Cons

  • The interface for generating upgrade reports could be improved.
  • The interface for tracking problematic issues/configuration items in our clusters could be a little easier to follow and/or tweak as needed.
  • It has caught problems on our clusters before they became true issues. It was immensely helpful to be aware of the problem so we could resolve in advance.
  • It has provided specific steps to mitigate issues during patching and upgrades that we wouldn't have otherwise known about.
Despite some interface issues, it mostly accomplishes what we need it to accomplish - give us a heads up on problems in our environment and prepare us for upgrades/patches.
Since this product is specific to NetApp there isn't really a comparable product. The closest I can think of is products for completely different vendors that aggregate server/storage data, like HP and Dell. I find NetApp Active IQ to be more useful overall.
