The stats of the NetApp do confirm that it is sitting idle.

I know zip about NetApps, but doesn't the 8th column indicate pretty

Yes, but they are very low.
At 15% usage, it's pretty much sitting idle if you consider that the OS reports that one of the processor is spending more then 80% of it's time in IOwait.
