by Frank Bonnet 15 Oct '03

15 Oct '03

Hi I have a fail disk in a SDS12 shelf but unfortunately the LED has gone to amber color and I wonder how disks are numbered into the shelf ? I think it is from 0 to 11 from left to right when looking in front of the shelf , am I right ? the disk has been declared no good for I/O by the filer and I have the replacing part and I have another question the doc tell us to declare the disk failed by the disk fail <disk_name> command , ok but ... what is the name of the disk ? Thanks Frank

Hi Paul, you don't have to worry about any snapshot settings before deleting a qtree. The blocks in your qtrees are already marked as belonging to serveral snapshots if the data already exists for some time (what I assume). Once this has happened you can't do anything about it. If you delete your qtrees, the data will move to the snapshot area. The remaining qtrees are not affected. You are not able to differentiate between snapshots of different qtrees as a snapshot is always taken of a whole volume. For some details about snapshots follow this link: http://www.netapp.com/tech_library/3002.html Regards Thorsten Lemke "paul.winchcombe(a)ukgateway.net" <yxm16(a)ukgateway.net>@mathworks.com on 14.10.2003 10:49:24 Please respond to paul.winchcombe(a)ukgateway.net Sent by: owner-toasters(a)mathworks.com To: toasters(a)mathworks.com cc: Subject: Deleting qtree -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hi, Just after any information of what is the best way to delete a qtree.

ONTAP 6.4.1, issues with NDMP and Legato Networker?
by kallen＠collab.net 14 Oct '03

14 Oct '03

hi folks, the thread "Netapp Ontap 6.4.1 and Veritas Netbackup 4.5" back in july pointed out problems between 6.4.1 and NBU, apparently due to Bug 85470 (http://now.netapp.com/NOW/cgi-bin/bol?Type=Detail&Display=85470). has anyone who uses Legato Networker experienced similar problems after upgrading to 6.4.1? we're debating upgrading to 6.4.1, or considering 6.4.2. thanks in advance. -- -=kallen=- "For one human being to love another, that is perhaps the most difficult of our tasks; the ultimate, the last test and proof; the work for which all other work is but preparation." -- Rainer Maria Rilke

FROM: LT.COL.EDDY BONGO (Rtd) PLOT 104 FATAI CLOSE VICTORIA ISLAND LAGOS NIGERIA TEL: 234-803-334-7417 Fax: 234-1-759-4979 Email:ed_bongo2000@yahoo.com RE: REQUEST FOR URGENT ASSISTANCE/JOINT VENTURE ATTN: CEO/PRESIDENT I should appreciate your surprise while receiving this letter. In any case, I am left with no option but to contact you in this manner. I got your contact courtesy of your country's trade directory here in Nigeria. My decision to write to you was informed by knowledge that being established personality you could be disposed to understand my predicament in order to give me the assistance I require. My name is Lt. Col Eddy Bongo (Rtd). the former adviser to PRESIDENT CHARLES TAYLOR the former president of Liberia. The chairman and leader of the revolutionary united front (R.U.F). This front was founded at the height of the civil war currently in my country the republic of Liberia. The then president of Liberia (Mr. Charles Taylor) mandated and instructed me to create and equip fully, strong military corps to defend the ruling government that was continually attacked by the rebel military forces. Nonetheless, this exercise was backed up with the sum of USD$32million dollars for the purchase of arms and ammunition for the government military corp. to fight the rebels from the republic of North Korea. The above sum set aside for the purchase of arms, was realized from the sales of my country's diamond, which I was in control of. This fund was moved to Nigeria via diplomatic courier in support of the military corps in one metal boxes and which I personally supervised. We have concluded arrangement with the Armscor of North Korea and made full payment of USD$17million dollars. The balance of USD$15million was held by me having the intention of making arrangement to transfer the fund out of Africa for personal use. However, the arrangement was being made for us to go back to Liberia when the ECOMIL and the AMERICAN allied forces must have captured the rebels and normalcy restored in Liberia, but as it is now I believe that it will be more important I occupy myself with the plans on how to claim this fund from the security company and subsequently invest it. I made an arrangement with my other colleagues to secure the fund for our own personal use, as it was a golden opportunity. However, they could not live to see this actualized as the rebels killed them before Charles Taylor was mandated to go on asylum in Nigeria on the 11th August 2003. This money is presently in deposit with a private Security Company here in Nigeria under a special arrangement though, we deposited it as precious stone and personal effects in this manner, no body have the idea of the actual content of the box. This has to be very confidential on both our sides. I seek your assistance to join us in this effort to transfer this fund out of Africa for investment purposes, as I cannot go back to Liberia now. I am currently an asylum seeker in Nigeria with the Former President thus, am prohibited by my present statues to operate a foreign currency account or transfer fund out of Nigerian monetary area hence, your assistance is highly solicited to stand as the beneficiary. Feel free to contact me on the above Email i.d or fax number for more confidentiality, as I do not want this information to be disposed until we reach our goal. As soon as I hear from you, I will be in a position to give you more information about this transaction and myself. Thanking you for your anticipated co-operation. Yours sincerely, Lt. Col Eddy Bongo (RTD). ------------------------------------------ Este mensaje fue enviado usando ZONAiMail. "Registra tu buzón con ZONAi ya!" http://www.zonai.com

Procmail not delivering mail to users /var/spool/mail files on NFS mounted directory on (Netapp F825)
by work-usenet＠nouce.net 12 Oct '03

12 Oct '03

I have a Linux server which has a NFS mounted home directory on which mail is delivered to a /var/spool/mail directory. The NFS server is a Netappp F825. I have posted this to the procmai mailing list also. Cross posting to see if any netapp administrators have fought similar mail issues with NFS mounted spool directories; and could help resolve these issues. procmail is the LDA. (version 3.22) Sendmail (8.12.10) No /etc/procmail/rc Sendmail and Procmail are being run in a chroot environment. When mail is received from the network, it is deposited into /var/spool/mqueue and owned by root:<userid> but stays there until a manual sendmail -q is done to push the mail, into the userid mail spool. Is there away I can get procmail, to accept the root:<userid> permissions and process the mail into the /var/spool/mail/<userid> mailboxes? sendmail and procmail are setuid. The user and root are both trusted users in the sendmail.cf, and the userid is the default userid in the sendmail.cf (sendmail is running in a chrooted environment). If mail is send to a user in the chroot environment via sendmail the mail is delivered to the spool with no problems. So I expect the problem is with permissions on the file system and/or procmail accessing the files. /user/test/var/spool/mqueue: total 48 -rw-r--r-- 1 root test 1585 Oct 10 16:55 dfh9AKtP6K022309 -rw-r--r-- 1 root test 8907 Oct 10 16:55 dfh9AKtPfY022310 -rw-r--r-- 1 root test 8919 Oct 10 16:55 dfh9AKtPfZ022310 -rw-r--r-- 1 root test 1102 Oct 10 16:56 dfh9AKuqpv022328 -rw-r--r-- 1 root test 818 Oct 10 16:55 qfh9AKtP6K022309 -rw-r--r-- 1 root test 998 Oct 10 16:55 qfh9AKtPfY022310 -rw-r--r-- 1 root test 1014 Oct 10 16:55 qfh9AKtPfZ022310 -rw-r--r-- 1 root test 888 Oct 10 16:56 qfh9AKuqpv022328 drwxr-xr-x 2 test test 180224 Oct 10 16:56 /user/test/var/spool/mqueue

RE: F85 boot after total re-install ?

Be sure you have an OS on the drives. Booting from floppies and running setup does some basic configuration but does not install a full version of the OS.
