Subject: Corruption in data
Hi,
I have a user who is experiencing data corruption. He opens a file in
textpad, saves it then uses the file in an application and finds it has null
characters in it. I checked through and found he had run out of quota. I
increased this and all …
[View More]appears to be well.
My question is - can low or no disk quota cause data corruption?

Does anyone have any experience integrating Netware 5.1, NDS 7 and
Groupwise 5.2 with a Filer? I sell NetApps in Dallas and need war
stories, feedback, testimonials, and any other info for a potential
client that has roughly 20 Novell servers, 36 NT boxes, and 9 or 10 Unix
machines. They have no plans to retire Novell anytime soon, so need a
long-term workable solution instead of a planned migration scenario.
Thanks,

Assume I have an F760 filer running 6.x with disk shelves as follows:
2xFC8 (18GB disks), 4xFC9 (36GB disks), and 1xDS14 (72GB disks). The 18
and 36GB disks (2 volumes) use Zone checksums, while the 72GB disks (1
volume) use Block checksums.
My question: can I keep a single 72GB BCS disk as hot spare for the
whole filer? If a failure occurs on a smaller disk, the filer will
reconstruct on the 72GB spare. Then I can replace the broken disk with
one the correct size, and fail the rebuilt 72GB …
[View More]disk over to the new
disk. The 72GB disk is then reinserted as hot spare.
The only question is: Will it work? NOW says that a BCS disk can be a
hot spare for a ZCS volume, but they don't relate to DS14 shelves. And
any unforseen gotchas.
Thanks,
Moshe

I recently installed a new filer, and physically moved one of my volumes
(vol2) to it. Since this volume was composed of FC8 shelves, while the
root volume (vol0) on the new filer had FC9 shelves, the technician
installed the FC8 shelves first on the loop, then the FC9's. The result
is, whatever command I issue (df, sysconfig -r), it displays vol2 first,
and then vol0. Frankly, this drives me crazy, and I am forever
rechecking which volume I am looking at. Is there a reason for this,
and …
[View More]any way to fix it?
Thanks,
Moshe

The vif man page (na_vif.1) explains
Links constantly issue either up or broken indications
based on their interaction with the switch. The consecu
tive count indicates the number of consecutively received
indications with the same value (in this example, up).
The transitions count indicates how many times the indica
tion has gone from up to down or from down to up.
So, you don't need to worry about this.

So, I just installed a GB ethernet card, and got a virtual interface up and running on my 740.
However, if I do a 'vif status', I get a very high number for "consecutive":
toaster> vif status
default: transmit 'multi', fail 'log'
redundo: 2 links, transmit 'single', fail 'default'
up:
e8: state up, since 18Jul2001 12:37:34 (01:00:17)
mediatype: auto-1000sx-fd-up
flags: enabled next-link favored address-set-1
input packets …

indication: up at 18Jul2001 12:36:41
consecutive 0, transitions 2
down:

consecutive 3669, transitions 0
The "up indications" seems to be the cause of it. Can anyone tell me what that is from? It looks like there is about 1 every second or so. Is this a normal thing? I searched on NOW and could only find one hit for "consecutive" that both had to do with virtual interfaces and wasn't in the documentation.
Thanks,
