Defect ID

Resolved Issue

VFGLS-2214

NetApp filers can be configured for both SSLv3 and TLS connections. As a result of recent security changes in Java, the agent will no longer, by default, attempt SSLv3 connections when monitoring these systems. If a secure connection is required, it is strongly recommended that TLS be enabled for the filer. See https://library.netapp.com/ecmdocs/ECMP1155684/html/GUID-3E07D3F8-6A05-49C0-BF92-9C88BA252E1F.html

To enable SSLv3 connections to the filer, edit the file "jre/lib/security/java.security" from the agent manager hosting the agent monitoring the filer, remove or comment out the line jdk.tls.disabledAlgorithms=SSLv3, and restart the agent manager.
