Re: You're killing me

Grue: Thank you; I could not have said it better nyself. Hopefully your letter will bring about a stop to all this. If it doesn't helpful or not, I AM out of here. My bandwidth can't stand it and my brain can't stand it! Thanks Again! Vinnie -----Original Message----- From: Randy Rue [mailto:rrue@fhcrc.org] Sent: Friday, September 2, 2011 07:38 PM To: toasters(a)teaparty.net Subject: You're killing me p { margin: 0; }If I didn't genuinely need this list to do my job I'd have dropped you whiners a month ago. I am one of the troubled many who have been receiving the toaster list emails for some time now but have been unable to post due to quirks of the ancient "majordomo" list previously graciously hosted at mathworks.com. I have benefited hugely from the information I've seen on this list, and when I've needed to I've had a co-worker (who could post) forward my questions to the list. In most cases I've found this list to be a better troubleshooting tool than NetApp's premium support. So I was delighted to see the list updated so that I'd be able to post, regardless of the letters following the "@" in the email address. I was grateful to see that someone had stepped up to solve the problem instead of whining about it. I'd often thought maybe it was time for someone else to take a turn at hosting the list but like the rest of us I somehow never quite got around to volunteering. Frankly I don't care if the list is hosted under the domain "goatlove.xxx." I'm tempted to host a new list under that domain, frankly. Lucky for you nambla.org is taken. I'd like to propose that this list, which I understand is intended for technical discussions of NetApp storage systems, be limited to technical discussions of NetApp storage systems. And that the rest of this bullshit stop. Yours in political neutrality in technical arenas... grue

inconsistent disk-list-info
by Steve Francis 03 Sep '11

03 Sep '11

when using the disk-list-info API command, we sometimes get inconsistent info - some disks missing from the list. Seems to happen more on systems with more disks. (e.g. happens semi-regularly on a system running 8.0.2 7-Mode with 60 odd disks; doesn't happen on systems with less disks.) Found one reference to this before: http://communities.netapp.com/thread/1959 It's inconsistent enough that it's a pain to troubleshoot, so wondered if anyone had any solutions already: - is this a known issue? resolved in any OnTap version? - ways to avoid it? (does limiting the attributes returned in the result set help?) -does using perf-object-instance-list-info disk to get the disks, then looping through them via disk-list-info avoid the issue?

Sorry. I know, I know. I just can't have email coming from teaparty.net coming to my account lest it be misconstrued. If the list moves, can someone let me know? -- Matt Phelps System Administrator, Computation Facility Harvard - Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics mphelps(a)cfa.harvard.edu, http://www.cfa.harvard.edu

upgrade to 8.0.2
by Moshe.Linzer＠nuvoton.com 01 Sep '11

01 Sep '11

We are currently running 7.2.6.1P9 on our 3160, and I want to upgrade to 7.3.3 or later. Any reason not to go all the way to 8.0.2? My hardware is all supported (finally got rid of those old disk shelves). And if we're upgrading, do you usually upgrade disk and shelf FW as well? Is this a requirement? I seem to be one version behind on most of my FW right now.

FC attached tape drive to a 3210
by Davies, Matt 01 Sep '11

01 Sep '11

Hi, I'm trying to setup a FC attached tape drive to the onboard FC ports (0c and 0d) of a FAS3210 >From my understanding I need to change the FC port to an Initiator, however this requires a reboot. FILER1> fcadmin config -t initiator 0d Thu Sep 1 11:54:21 GMT [fci.config.state:info]: Fibre channel target adapter 0d is in the PENDING (initiator) state. A reboot is required for the new adapter configuration to take effect. Does anyone know if there is a way round having to reboot the filer ?
