Can we get NetApp Snapdrive agents for HP-UX from NetApp..?
We are running some workloads on HP-UX Servers in NetApp Infra and we are planning to take snapshots of those NetApp Volumes. We observed, there is no Snapdrive agents available in the download portal. We need to know, whether we can get Snapdrive agents directly from NetApp.

SnapCenter MongoDB Plugin restore in a VM environment
Hello,
Anyone tried to restore a MongoDB database in a VMware environment from SnapCenter, using the MongoDB Plugin?
We have a Sharded Replicaset cluster running in Vmware. The snapshots through the MongoDB Plugin are working fine. The issue is doing the restore through the SnapCenter Plugin and we're not sure how this will work with the layers Volume>Snapshot>LUN>Datastore>VM disks.
Or should we explore at doing the restore manually, from the Ontap CLI, unmount the filesystem and snapshot restore?
Anyone else in the same configuration that can share?

Snapcenter Plugin 4.3.1 Backups are fine. Restore errors with "No backups available at this time."
We have 2 separate vSphere systems connecting to one AFF-A300 Netapp storage. Both vSphere Vcenter Appliances have an individual Netapp VSC Appliance, and both are creating backups on a scheduled basis.
However, One of the vSphere Snapcenter Plugins is giving the error "No backups available at this time." and will not display the backups to restore from!
I have tried the following, and re registered the SCV plugin. But still get the same error

clone Oracle database on VM guest with Snapcenter 4
Hello,
I am evaluating using Snapcenter 4 for the Oracle db cloning. Oracle is on a VMware linux guest with VMDKs on the datastores hosted on a FAS3000 via FCoE.
For the Snapcenter host I need the Plug-in for Oracle Database. Do I need the Plug-in for VMware vSphere since the Oracle guest is a VM or any other additional plug-in?
cheers,

SnapCenter Role With Minimum Privileges
Hello,
I need some insight into the best way to lock down the local SnapCenter account on a NetApp cluster. The following articles outline several steps, however the role they outline includes cluster and vserver commands. I don't believe those commands work in an SVM context. The account we have right now resides in SVMs that contain datastores and iSCSI LUNs, all backed up by SnapCenter.
In summary: I want to assign the limited rights recommended below, but can't assign them all if the account is in an SVM <if I understand correctly>. Anyone have an insight into this?

SnapCenter ps script to list all "suspended hosts" and resources "scheduled on hold"
Hi,
Based on SnapCenter 4.3.0 i'd like to have a ps script
- determine all resources (order by plugin-type) where its schedule is actually on hold
- and all Hosts which are actually either suspended or down.
I'm new to powershell and do not now how to do this based on the available cmdlet's.
Can someone please help?

SnapCenter 4.4 - Issue with Cloning, Custom Plug-in for MySQL Server
Hello,
We're backing up a MySQL database on iscsi storage (on Ontap 9.7) via SnapCenter 4.4 using the Custom Plugin for MySQL 2.0.
This seems to work great, but when we try to clone via SnapCenter we get stuck on:
"Mount Filesystem"=>"Building clone for data file systems and associated entities" and following log entry:
Internal error: Attribute (uuid) does not pass the type constraint because: Validation failed for 'Str' with value undef at accessor SCU::Model::Device::uuid (defined at /opt/NetApp/snapcenter/spl/lib/../plugins/scu/scucore/bin/../modules/SCU/Model/Device.pm line 26) line 4
SCU::Model::Device::uuid('SCU::Model::Device=HASH(0x3ce8730)', undef) called at /opt/NetApp/snapcenter/spl/lib/../plugins/scu/scucore/bin/../modules/SCU/Metadata/FSMetadataBuilder.pm line 105
If you look on the host right before it fails you can see that the LUNS are visible via sanlun lun show.
If we take a look at the BuildHostStackCloneInput json file, fsMetadataInfo=>"path"=>deviceInfo=>uuid = null. Wich explains why the error happens. If we, for testing purposes, edit the FSMetadataBuilder.pm file to use "" instead of null the clone works, but we don't want to edit those files ofcourse.
We have no idea why that value is null to begin with, we've tried on both SLES and Oracle Linux, same result.
Does anybody have any ideas?

Can you join 2 SnapCenter's into 1
We have 2 SnapCenters. 1 was an older version of Snap Manager/VSC, migrated to data broker appliance and then upgraded to 4.4 SnapCenter appliance. This has all our VMware vCenter metadata.
We've built a Physical Windows SnapCenter, which will be upgraded from 4.3 to 4.4 with physical SQL server database backup jobs.
We want to merge two together e.g. move the 4.4 SnapCenter appliance onto the Physical Windows SnapCenter.
We want to be able to manage jobs from 1 SnapCenter. We have created SQL database backup jobs for physical SQL servers, we want to use with VM's with SQL databases.
Is this possible?

Snapcentre and Oracle Standby Databases
We are trying to create a backup of an Oracle Dataguard Standby database with Snapcentre 4.4. When we create the offline schedule with 'Shutdown' mode when we run it it throws this message:
Activity 'Discovering Oracle Database Files' failed with error: Discovery failed for object MYDB with error PL-SCO-20006: Discovery of database files failed for database MYDB on host myhost with error PL-SCO-20035: OFFLINESHUTDOWN DATA backup is not supported for Data Guard standby database.. Activity 'Finalizing Oracle Database Backup' failed with error: PostBackupActivity failedPL-SCO-20032: postBackup operation failed with error: PL-SCO-20035: OFFLINESHUTDOWN DATA backup is not supported for Data Guard standby database.
The guide for Snapcentre 4.4 states:
Oracle Data Guard standby
You can create only offline (mount or shutdown) backups of Data Guard standby databases. Archive log-only backup or full backup is not supported.
So why would this not work? I did see this KB and tried the steps but same error.
