qtree Move Between Vols
by Ed Alexander 29 Aug '02

29 Aug '02

I apologize in advance if this is in a FAQ or in the archives. I couldn't find an answer there, so... I've just brought a new vol on-line and need to move some qtrees off other vols that are filling up. All vols are attached to a single F820 and my admin host is running Solaris 8. What is the best (read: fastest) way to move a qtree between vols? The qtrees I'm moving are between 5 and 65 Gb in size. I've looked at ndmpcopy on the ndmp.org site. It's intended for moves between filers, but should work fine for moves within the same filer. Also, the site claims it's been tested on Solaris 2.5.1. Have others compiled and used it on Solaris 8? Are there other viable options besides ndmpcopy? I'd appreciate any advice from others who have gone down this road. TIA.

Re: limit to number of files in a directory
by Chris Thompson 28 Aug '02

Hmmm.... another thought. You asked: > Hi all, are there any limits to the maximum number of files (or > subdirectories) a Netapp NFS mounted directory can handle? There's a bound specifically on the number of subdirectories that I didn't mention. The link count on the parent directory is limited to 65535, which means no more than 65533 subdirectories. (Some Unix filing systems use signed shorts for the link count, but ONTAP uses unsigned ones.) Chris Thompson Email: cet1(a)cam.ac.uk

Okay everybody. I figure it out. Thanks a lot.

I'm not sure of all them implications of having it on though. You may want to do nightly full scans from the scanning host if you have the mandatory scan off, just in case there was an intermittent failure during the day and some files got infected.

Try changing the mandatory_scan option to off. From the command line enter "vscan options mandatory_scan off" . -----Original Message----- From: Steve Evans [mailto:sevans@foundation.sdsu.edu] Sent: Wednesday, August 28, 2002 11:36 AM To: toasters(a)mathworks.com Subject: TrendMicro Antivirus We have TrendMicro Server Protect for NetApp. It's okay, but I'm worried about the reliablity.

We have TrendMicro Server Protect for NetApp. It's okay, but I'm worried about the reliablity. Is there a way to have a filer turn of virus scanning if there are no longer any registered Anti-Virus scanners? We had the TrendMicro service fail during a dat update and nobody was able to read or write from the Filer until I got in that morning and realized what was going on. Steve Evans (619) 594-0653

snapshot issue
by Fahy, Michael 27 Aug '02

27 Aug '02

Our webmaster, who gets email every day, reported this morning that her inbox was missing all messages received after June 10. the inbox is in a /var/mail filesystem mounted from a filer. Assuming that her inbox had gotten corrupted since yesterday, I looked at the snapshots to find one that had her recently received messages. [/var/mail/.snapshot/hourly.0] ls -l mthomas -rw-rw---- 1 mthomas mail 14482423 Aug 27 08:13 mthomas [/var/mail/.snapshot/hourly.1] ls -l mthomas -rw-rw---- 1 mthomas mail 14482423 Jun 10 12:21 mthomas Note that the file from the hourly.1 snapshot appears to be the same file as the one from the hourly.0 snapshot but it has a June 10 date. All the other snapshots also have the June 10 date. Has anyone seen anything like this with snapshots?

RE: MUTUAL BUSINESS PROPOSAL
by Sumash Singh 27 Aug '02

I must admit that this is grossly annoying and even more so when South Africa is compared to Zimbabwe, in terms of the political stature. This kinda spam should be banned, and the offenders seriously dealt with Proud South African Sumash Singh -----Original Message----- From: Clawson, Simon [mailto:simon_clawson@mentorg.com] Sent: 27 August 2002 05:39 PM To: toasters(a)mathworks.com Subject: RE: MUTUAL BUSINESS PROPOSAL Same scam different story... -----Original Message----- From: Anthony Ani [mailto:anthonytani@lycos.com] Sent: 27 August 2002 16:06 To: toasters(a)mathworks.com Subject: MUTUAL BUSINESS PROPOSAL TELEPHONE:612 685 123 Dear Sir, You may be surprised to receive this letter from me since you do not know me personally. The purpose of my introduction is that I am Anthony Ani, the first son of Bebe Ani one of the most popular black farmer in Zimbabwe who was recently murdered in the land dispute in my country. I got your contact through network online hence decided to write you. Before the death of my father, he had taken me to Johannesburg to deposit the sum of USD$14.5 million (Fourteen million, Five Hundred thousand United States dollars), in one of the private security company, as he foresaw the looming danger in Zimbabwe this money was deposited in a box as gem stones to avoid much demurrage from security company. This amount was meant for the purchase of new machines and chemicals for the Farms and establishment of new farms in Swaziland. This land problem came when Zimbabwean President Mr. Robert Mugabe introduced a new Land Act Reform wholly affecting the rich white farmers and some few black farmers, and this resulted to the killing and mob action by Zimbabwean war veterans and some lunatics in the society. In fact a lot of people were killed because of this Land reform Act for which my father was one of the victims. It is against this background that, I and my family fled Zimbabwe for fear of our lives and are currently staying in the Netherlands where we are seeking political asylum and moreso have decided to transfer my father's money to a more reliable foreign account. since the law of Netherlands prohibits a refugee (asylum seeker) to open any bank account or to be involved in any financial transaction throughout the territorial zone of Netherlands, As the eldest son of my father, I am saddled with the responsibility of seeking a genuine foreign account where this money could be transferred without the knowledge of my government who are bent on taking everything we have got. The South African government seems to be playing along with them. I am faced with the dilemma of moving this amount of money out of South Africa for fear of going through the same experience in future, both countries have similar political history. As a businessman,I am seeking for a partner who I have to entrust my future and that of my family in his hands, I must let you know that this transaction is risk free. If you accept to assist me and my family, all I want you to do for me, is to make an arrangements with the security company to clear the consignment(funds) from their afiliate office here in the Netherlands as i have already given directives for the consignment to be brought to the Netherlands from South Africa.But before then all modalities will have to be put in place like change of ownership to the consignment and more importantly this money I intend to use for investment. I have two options for you. Firstly you can choose to have certain percentage of the money for nominating your account for this transaction. Or you can go into partnership with me for the proper profitable investment of the money in your country. Whichever the option you want, feel free to notify me. I have also mapped out 5% of this money for all kinds of expenses incurred in the process of this transaction.If you do not prefer a partnership I am willing to give you 10% of the money while the remaining 85% will be for my investment in your country. Contact me with the above telephone number and E-mail addresse,while I implore you to maintain the absolute secrecy required in this transaction.
