Hello - new (old) F630 owner
by Dan O'Brien 29 Oct '02

29 Oct '02

We recently became caretaker of a new to us F630. This unit has 6 disk shelves, each shelf loaded with 9GB drives. We had NetApps come in and set it up (recertify it) after it was shipped to us from GB (we are in Ohio). Everything went fine except we had a couple of bad power supplies and a bad SCSI cable to one of the shelves. We are now looking at maintaining the hardware ourselves. We are planning on securing some spare parts and build a small hot spare system from which we can pull parts as needed. Anyone have any suggestions as new owners of a F630? We have lots of Unix and PC experience, but this is the first hands on with a NetApps. (BTW: why is NetApps so secretive with info on their web site? Docs, manuals, specs, are all highly guarded with logins, passwords, etc.) Cheers, Dan O'Brien, dmobrien(a)lcsi.net Cell: 614-783-4859 Work: 614-476-8473 Home: 740-927-2178 Pataskala, OH

Restoring NetApp dumps with Solaris ufsrestore
by Chris Thompson 03 Oct '02

03 Oct '02

Following some very nasty experiences with Veritas (vxvm & vxfs) on one of our systems, we are currently in paranoia mode about our ability to restore from backups, and have been doing more than usually extensive tests. I have come across a serious problem with ONTAP restore, but I am in communication with NetApp about that and it's not the subject of this message. Maybe later on ... :-) NetApp have said on a number of occasions that it's a design feature of their dump format that it is a compatible extension of good old BSD dump format, so that if all else fails one can feed them to a BSD-type restore program (losing ACLs and such-like info, of course). Solaris "ufsrestore" is usually explicitly or implicitly mentioned. So I have been testing that, and have fallen over a problem that I knew about (at least since May 2000, as I see I mentioned it in passing on toasters then) but have been ignoring. Maybe it's time to do something about it! What happens is that ufsrestore says write error extracting inode NNNNN, name ./path/name/to/file write: Bad address and gives up. One can see that it has half-written the file involved. It seems to happen only on files that have holes (often many of them) at odd multiples of 4K: in our case they are usually *.pag files that are part of (n)dbm databases. Now I very strongly suspect that this is a bug in Solaris ufsrestore, not in the NetApp dump contents, and I would like to be able to report it to Sun and get it fixed. But it seems to be very difficult to reproduce with a small example: it's far from the case that every file with oddly-aligned holes causes a problem, or even that a file with exactly the same hole pattern will provoke the bug if it occurs at a different point in the dump. Even worse, it apparently depends on what sort of filing system ufsrestore is restoring into: I have never had it happen if it is a local ufs filing system, but often if it was an nfs one (usually on a NetApp filer, of course). If all these variables are reproduced, though, the effect is repeatable. It's possible that Sun would reject such a bug report unless one could show that it failed on a dump generated by Solaris ufsdump. Solaris ufs filing systems have always been blocked at 8K by default (so that hole boundaries must be on multiples of 8K). On UltraSPARC (sun4u) systems one can't even mount ones that are blocked at 4K any longer. I tried making a ufsdump of a filing system blocked at 4K on a SPARCstation 5 (sun4m) - sometimes it's useful to have such an out of date machine as one's personal workstation! - with a suitably holey file in it, but I couldn't get the ufsrestore bug to show up... :-( If anyone else has ever come across this problem, and/or has any suggestions on how to proceed with homing in on the bug, I would very much like to hear from them. The latest experiments were done with Solaris 8 ufsrestore as patched by 109091-05, but as I said above I believe the bug has been there for many years.

Gig Enet and Filer NFS problems

Hi, We have some F820s running Gig E (fibre, not copper) and are starting to get complaints about nfs performance. We have taken all the defaults for the network setting and just wanted to do a quick sanity check with the group to see if there are known issues. Thanks Steve Darragh

RE: UNIX /var/mail on NetApp?
by Mike Sphar 30 Sep '02

30 Sep '02

This is a good point. I know Solaris does this, possibly others. The default Sendmail configuration on at least some versions of Solaris will automatically try to use the server /var/mail is mounted from as the mailhost for transferring outgoing mail. You should be able to override this in the sendmail.cf. -- Mike Sphar - Sr Systems Administrator Remedy Corporation -----Original Message----- From: devnull(a)adc.idt.com [mailto:devnull@adc.idt.com] Sent: Monday, September 30, 2002 1:04 PM To: toasters(a)mathworks.com Subject: Re: UNIX /var/mail on NetApp? here is what we do in /etc/auto_direct /var/mail -rw,hard,actimeo=0 filer:/vol/vol2/mail intr, hard are defaults. You might want to add noac. This is not the right way of doing things(over nfs that is). If your people complain about not getting mail on the client, do a /usr/lib/sendmail -v you(a)yourdomain.com You might see it trying to make a port 25 connection to your filer :) Again, that is not a NetApp thing, more of a /var/mail over NFS thing.

UNIX /var/mail on NetApp?
by David Lee 30 Sep '02

30 Sep '02

We run a fairly traditional UNIX email service: delivery to a Solaris-8 machine with sendmail, hosting the "/var/mail" mailstore. The operations on the mailstore files themselves are entirely from the Washington suite: POP/IMAP server (clients) and their "tmail" (sendmail 'Mlocal' delivery). There is no direct NFS access to the mailstore. One of the pieces of received wisdom is that the "/var/mail" mailstore should not be accessed by NFS, as NFS is (they would say) notoriously problematical. I'm inclined to believe this. Nevertheless, we are toying with the idea of putting "/var/mail" onto a NetApp thereby, of course, introducing NFS and its locking into the equation. Naturally, we are rather wary of doing this. But, if done, its major advantage for us would be in allowing us to set up an expandable "farm" of modest-size IMAP/POP machines, rather than having to run it all on one major machine. Anyone got any thoughts and/or experiences with UNIX /var/mail on NetApp? -- : David Lee I.T.

My company is hosting a fairly large mail-system with several Solaris based mailservers (pop/imap/smtp) all served from a single F880 with close to 3TB of raw disks with no major systemic problems at least regarding usage of NFS. The words saying that NFS is problematic, is at best history, as I have been in companies using NetApp's for mail-store for the past 7 years or so. It may involve tuning nfs on the client side, we have not done much on the netapp side - and ensuring that the network is able to handle the expected traffic. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>.rune -- Rune Bakken Senior System Administrator Telenor Business Solutions (Nextra), Communications/IP-Services Ph: +47 22 77 03 93

RE: large data move
by Toal, Dave 30 Sep '02

30 Sep '02

Geoff, Easiest and fastest is to set up crossover cables and use snapmirror. If you have multiple interfaces free (a quad card maybe) interfaces can be trunked with vif; with a single crossover line I saw a vol with 185 gig of data mirrored in about 6 1/2 hours. Syntax is dead easy, source -> destination; waldorf is the source filer here. netapp-demo> snapmirror initialize -S waldorf:domain2 netapp-demo:domain2 netapp-demo> rdfile /etc/snapmirror.allow waldorf netapp-demo> -- Dave Toal Unix Mostly Thomson & Thomson N. Quincy, MA -----Original Message----- From: Geoff Hardin To: toasters Sent: 9/30/02 9:26 AM Subject: large data move I am contemplating moving an entire filer from 18 GB drives (many, many problems) to 36 GB drives; the reasons are an entirely separate posting. My question is, what is the fastest, most reliable way to move the data? This past weekend, I moved about 100 GB in four different qtrees with ndmpcopy, and each qtree averaged about 40 hours to move (between 34 to 44 hours). I am looking at moving three times that amount of data on this other filer. I seem to recall using snapmirror or snaprestore when we migrated from an F630 to our F760C, but that was quite some time ago. I was wondering if anyone had stories, recommendations, pointers on what is the best method to transfer data. Thanks to all in advance!
