I did file a report with netapp, but i still wanted to find out about ways of
reading everything else except for the broken packet. Using editcap and
creating a new file worked just like you mentioned. I am able to get the stats
now.
Thanks very much,

Then there's a bug on the filer; you should report it to NetApp. It
might not be writing out the last bufferful of packet data (which means
there might be some packets that are *completely* missing from the file).

You can throw away the incomplete packet at the end - have editcap read
the file and write it to another file; it'll print an error, but it'll
just copy the complete packets to the output file.
Then read the output file with tshark.
