Upgrading 32->64 bit aggregates/vols without adding disk
by Fletcher Cocquyt 21 Mar '13

21 Mar '13

Again in the position where my source aggregate is 32 bit and destination is 64 bit and this prevents vfiler online migration. Last year this was a priv set diag command aggr 64bit-upgrade start aggr1 -mode grow-all http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/netapp/toasters/11820 In test mode, this completed the 64 bit upgrade quickly and without error. Anyone done this in production? (Ontap 8.1) thanks

vfiler: useradmin user list root ... like to see the output
by Peter Kain 21 Mar '13

21 Mar '13

Can someone post from a vfiler the output of the command below, I'd like to see what you have for Allowed Capabilities and if it's a "*": > useradmin user list root On my vfiler I'm seeing nothing for "Allowed Capabilities" and a script I was using has stopped working. I can fix it by adding the group Administrators to root but I'd like to know what happen. blackhaw@FAS3240B> useradmin user list root Name: root Info: Default vfiler root Rid: 131073 Groups: Full Name: Allowed Capabilities: Password min/max age in days: 0/4294967295 Status: enabled NetApp Release 8.0.2P6 7-Mode: Fri Jan 27 14:48:08 PST 2012 Thanks, -- Pete Kain 310-506-4475

Changing qtree security type on snapvault destination.
by Jeff Cleverley 20 Mar '13

20 Mar '13

Greetings, How do you change the security style of a snapvault destination from ntfs to unix? The qtree is currently ntfs as is the primary qtree. When I try to change the security style it just says it change change it. How can I change it so I can see the qtree via nfs from our admin server? Thanks, Jeff -- Jeff Cleverley Unix Systems Administrator 4380 Ziegler Road Fort Collins, Colorado 80525 970-288-4611

File Access / Size Usage Reports
by Ray Van Dolson 13 Mar '13

13 Mar '13

We have several large CIFS shares managed by internal departments. I'd like to be able to get reports based on which directories contain the most data / files (inodes) and also which files aren't being accessed very frequently and as such are candidates for archival / deletion. We've historically used CommVault's SRM for the latter, but the Backup team is telling me it won't work on CIFS shares as it needs an agent. Essentially looking for something like JdiskReport plus file access reporting. Could probably run tools direct from OS's accessing the shares (and that may be the right thing to do). Am wondering what all of you use out there? Ray

FCP Fan In question
by Milazzo Giacomo 11 Mar '13

11 Mar '13

Hi all, we're setting up a very large FCP environment on a 6240HA with 4 target HBA each dedicated to that SAN. Hosts are IBM AIX LPAR each with 4 NPIV HBAs coming from two different VIOS. We will have more or less 300 LPARs. Both NetApp controllers and hosts are simmetrically zoned and divided on two FC switches, as usual. Well, the FC & iSCSI Configuration Guide report the limits for each family of controller and for 6200 one the FC port fan-in is 64. [cid:image001.png@01CE1E58.FE336720] Is it really the maximum number of hosts they mean? Not the inititators number? I ask it because if you look at the current fcp stat you can see we already have roughly 40 initiators connected to each target and we'll quickly reach that limit. If that is the host number we can easily add more target ports to balance workloads...but if that number is "initiators" we're in trouble. Thanks in advance, Regards V6240A*> fcp stats Statistics for adapter 0c Read Ops: 142646 Write Ops: 5387410 Other Ops: 5501 KBytes In: 606619208 KBytes Out: 18650223 Adapter Resets: 0 Frame Overruns: 0 Frame Underruns: 0 Initiators Connected: 0 Link Breaks: 2 LIP Resets: 7 SCSI Requests Dropped: 0 Interrupts: 20804631 Spurious Interrupts: 0 Total Logins: 415 Total Logouts: 415 CRC Errors: 0 Adapter Qfulls: 0 Protocol Errors: 0 Invalid Transmit Words: 0 LR Sent: 0 LR Received: 0 Discarded Frames: 0 NOS Received: 1 OLS Received: 8 Queue Depth: 0 Statistics for SFP on 0c Vendor Name: FINISAR CORP.

wafl_cp_slovol_warning_1 with big latency spikes
by Fletcher Cocquyt 08 Mar '13

08 Mar '13

Yesterday morning one of the heads on our 3270 experienced large NFS latency spikes causing our VMware hosts and their VMs to log storage timeouts. This latency does not correlate to any external metrics like CPU, network, OPS etc. But in the logs do show CP events on the aggregate hosting the VMs: Jan 14 05:27:56 [n04:wafl.cp.slovol:warning]: aggregate aggr2 is holding up the CP. And the EMS log has CP events logged for the duration of the episode - what can we do to prevent these issues? <wafl_cp_toolong_warning_1 total_ms="117825" total_dbufs="32276" clean="4312" v_ino="3" v_bm="29" a_ino="0" a_bm="3428" flush="1209"/> </LR> <LR d="14Jan2013 05:19:38" n="irt-na04" t="1358169578" id="1335304168/148007" p="4" s="Ok" o="wafl_CP_proc" vf="" type="0" seq="633232" > <wafl_cp_slovol_warning_1 voltype="aggregate" volowner="" volname="aggr2" volident="" nt="35" nb="22045" clean="1346852" v_ino="0" v_bm="113" a_ino="0" a_bm="4" flush="0" rgid="2"/> Netapp support wants me to run perfstats, but the issue is not ongoing - things are idle thanks Fletcher Cocquyt Principal Engineer Information Resources and Technology (IRT) Stanford University School of Medicine Email: fcocquyt(a)stanford.edu Phone: (650) 724-7485

Anti Virus Scanning
by John Constable 05 Mar '13

05 Mar '13

Hi Folks, Does anyone have any recommendations (or horrible warnings, off list is fine!) for antivirus scanning integration with NetApp? We're starting to look into all this (again), and I'd be interested in people's experiences and recommendations, especially if anyone has used products like Avere to get round the performance hit that may result? We have a low double digit number of 7-mode HA systems, and are about to bring in a cluster, so we'd be looking at something that could do both, in an ideal world (I'd also like a pony). cheers John -- John Constable, Storage Team x6924 (+44 1223 496924) Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute, Wellcome Trust Genome Campus, Hinxton, Cambridge, UK -- The Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute is operated by Genome Research Limited, a charity registered in England with number 1021457 and a company registered in England with number 2742969, whose registered office is 215 Euston Road, London, NW1 2BE.
