Is it possible to use ONTAP System Manager with ONTAPI disabled?
Applies to
- ONTAP System Manager 9.15.1 and below
- ONTAPI
Answer
- ONTAP System Manager still has dependencies under ONTAPI and disabling it will cause ONTAP System Manager to stop working in ONTAP 9.15.1 and below
- This can be verified with the following command:
cluster1::> vserver services web modify -vserver cluster1 -name ontapi -enabled false
Warning: The service "ontapi" supplies features required by: "sysmgr". Disabling "ontapi" will disable all dependent services.
Do you want to continue? {y|n}:
- If a warning states that sysmgr requires ontapi features, System Manager will be disabled if ontapi is disabled. Choose
n
for no when prompted if you still require System Manager access. - Starting with ONTAP 9.16.1RC1, disabling ontapi will no longer disable the sysmgr service.
