Clear que for clariion WLA data collection

The infrastructure is good enough to collect the perfomance stats. Since WLA agent is stopped for a while, it will try to collect all the wla information again since past one month and it takes around 10 days for it to get todays report. I want to wipe out all the que's so that i can collect information from today onwards. I dont care last one month of data collection

I am not an expert on CLARiiON piece, but from WLA perspective I don't think there is a queue. If you believe the infrastructure is too slow to collect performance statistics, then I would increase the collection interval. However, the problem might be something else.

In any case, check your data collection policy. It's under something like Administration - Data Collection Policy - Policy Definitions - Storage Agent for CLARiiON - WLA Daily - Edit.

Hi,

My guess is that there a lot of que files for the Clariion agent under \ecc\exec\ \diskqueue\SST folder. The agent may still have old information which is queued up and is trying to send it to the WLA Archiver. These files can be deleted and should allow you to start with a clean slate re WLA Clariion collections...

Thanks for the response.

I opened the case with Support and we need to go to following folders to clear the queue for each of the following
\ECC\exec\ 520\diskqueue\SST\ directory.
where is MGA.ini for master agent
ENW.ini for Work load analyzer
EGN.ini for Fiber channel
EGS.ini for symmetrix
MGL.ini for clariion.

Thanks scott and seamus for your response

Stop the subagents (i.e. Symmetrix, Host, Switch, etc...) and the WLA Archiver agent.
Delete the queue files on the agent servers which are located in the \ECC\exec\ 520\diskqueue\SST\ directory.
On the WLA Archiver agent server delete the \lastsession.dat file.
Restart the WLA Archiver agent.
Restart the subagents that were stopped in step 1.

try this

Option 1 (All queued data will be lost):
Stop the subagents (i.e. Symmetrix, Host, Switch, etc...) and the WLA Archiver agent.
Delete the queue files on the agent servers which are located in the \ECC\exec\ 520\diskqueue\SST\ directory.
On the WLA Archiver agent server delete the \lastsession.dat file.
Restart the WLA Archiver agent.
Restart the subagents that were stopped in step 1.
Option 2 (Queued data will be retained but it may take days for the WLA Archiver agent to catch up:

On the WLA Archiver agent server edit the \ECC\exec\ENW520\ENW.ini file.
Add the text max data threads = 600 at the end of the [[ENW]] section of the file and save the file. See ENW.ini example with this max data threads setting in Note statement of this solution.
Restart the WLA Archiver agent.
