Good day, Compliment of the day. I really regret any embarrassment this mail might cause you as we've never by any chance met before I want you to patiently read this offer. I am Yusuf Ego the Head of Delegation to the World Bank in West Africa. I am the linkman between the Organization for Petroleum Exporting Countries - OPEC and the petroleum sector in a West African country. Through the sale of our allocated oil quota in OPEC, I was able to make $30.5 million. I want you to assist me in investing this fund since as a civil servant I cannot have such funds and the code of conduct bureau forbids me to acquire such amount of money. Though it is my desire to go into property investments or any other area of your choice you may advice. I will compensate you for your honest guidance and assistance. If you're interested to assist in this regard, kindly confirm this message upon receipt Through any of these e-mail address only : yusufego(a)mail.bg or yusufego(a)indiatimes.com to enable me know my next line of action and give you enough details and how we will work things out. Awaiting your earliest response Regards, Yusuf Ego

Hi all, Please note that NetApp themselves have something which is called 'NetApp Usable Capacity Calculator.xls' which is available to partners. You might want to speak to your NetApp representative and save yourself a lot of calculation headaches ;-).

Dear Colleague, On a very happy note and bearing in mind the staunch commitment that you had put into the quest to see that the fund was transferred to you for claim as we had arranged but to no avail, I write to inform you that at last, the fund transfer had been a SUCCESS. Since all our effort in conjunction with yours were met with various failures and disappointments after the other, there was an influential party from Britain that was approached on our behalf by a Finance & Management Supports Initiatives(a consulting firm); and with her (influential party) imputes, the Fund was paid out and I have collected my own share. Presently, I am in Europe where, in partnership with a core investor in the Mining Sector of their economy, we are investing in the industry. But, I am not oblivious of the fact that you did your best in that context, although, it seem that element of doubt crept in. You were not to blame, as there were many circumstances that would reflect such scepticism to any reasonable being. For your sincere but unfruitful sacrifices, I pressurized the influential woman to concede some amount as COMPENSATION to you, for the resource that you implunged even the time and inconveniences. The sum of $USD 500,000 (Five hundred thousand dollars) was what she agreed to as your compensation value, and the sum was made in draft but, because of my appointment in Ecuador and too, I could not get through to you since your number at any time indicated "not in use", I then handed it over to the Secretary of the Finance & Management Supports Initiatives, the consulting firm. His name is Mr. Victor Mark and his email: vicmark1(a)myway.com The Secretary is very much informed by me about you and I instructed him to hand over the Draft you as soon as you contact him. I gave him the CODE:750, which you have to mention for identification. Note that at times I will be in the site and the Internet does not work there. Only when I am in the city. Yours Sincerely, Frank Jonas.

RE: Data Classification
by Wickizer, Dale 31 Jul '06

StorageX works well if your environment is primarily Windows. There is some support for Unix, but it is still maturing. NeoPath would be a better solution for migration if the data is both NFS (Unix) and CIFS (Windows) data. A separate product, Kazeon, can also be used to help determine the content of the data that is out there. It will crawl NFS and CIFS shares and build a full index based on the content. It has strong policies then for migration, deletion or compliance. These products are complementary to one another. -----Original Message----- From: Julio Calderon [mailto:jcalderon@agami.com] Sent: Monday, July 31, 2006 1:00 PM To: netster; toasters(a)mathworks.com Subject: RE: Data Classification Personally, I like what StorageX (now part of Brocade) has to offer.

I have several NetApp filers with close to 25TBs of user data stored on them (Best guess is that there is some 50 million files, but we aren't sure as our backup software only backups the current data set, not the snapshots). We are looking to consolidate down the environment given the latest storage capacities and thought I would ask the community here what tools that they used to understand what data needed to be migrate, what data needed to be destroyed, and what the data costs in terms of per user and department? We have the costing for the storage down to a per $ fee per MB/GB. Any thoughts? We have tried some freeware and shareware programs, but they require weeks, if not months of personnel time to make sense out of the data that they collect. We are looking for a packaged solution.

Cher Ami,
by Villaran Nenita 31 Jul '06

31 Jul '06

Cher Ami, Je sais que vous serez étonnez de recevoir mon mail et je vous comprends mais voyez vous cher monsieur, apres mure réflexion, je me décide enfin, mais avant, je tiens a me présenter a vous. Je me rejoui que vous avyez enfin pri contact avec moi. Mon nom est madame Villaran Nenita,je suis une citoyenne philippienne a part entiere et la veuve du défunt ministre des finances philippien qui est mort le 15 mai 2002. Mon mari est tombé gravement malade est a donc été conduit en Europe pour des soins intensifs, mais plus tard il est décédé des suites de sa maladie et a été enterré. J’ai donc hérité de mon défunt mari la somme de 12.000.000 de dollars américains (douze millions de dollars américains). Cet argent, je l’ai caché dans une mallette métallique et déposé au sein d’une compagnie de finance et de sécurité ici en Philippine.Cependant, ayant insisté aupres de la compagnie de finance et de sécurité pour que ma mallette soit gardée avec un maximum de sécurité de tel sorte que personne ni meme une organisation gouvernementale philippienne ne puisse prendre connaissance de son existence, jusqu’a ce que je sois prete a la retirer, alors la dite compagnie pour répondre a mon exigence maximum de sécurité a utilisé des moyens diplomatiques pour envoyer ma mallette hors des philippines et précisément a la maison mere de leur compagnie en côte d’ivoire en Afrique de l’ouest ou ma mallette se trouve donc discretement gardée dans le coffre fort de la compagnie. Ce dépôt a été fait et codé dans le cadre d’un arrangement secret selon lequel ma mallette contient uniquement des biens de famille.Cela signifie donc que la compagnie elle meme ne connaît pas le contenu exact de la mallette qui pour plus de sécurité a été envoyée en côte d’ivoire sous une assurance diplomatique et déclarée comme contenant des biens de famille .Aussi,la raison principale pour laquelle je vous envoie ce courrier est qu’aujourd’hui, n’ayant plus confiance en mon entourage ici en philippine et la côte d’ivoire étant un pays en proie a la guerre, je me retrouve dans une impasse et je voudrais que vous m’aidiez discretement a emmener ma mallette d’argent a une adresse beaucoup plus discrete et stable dans votre pays ou je pourrai commencer a investir. Si vous voulez sincerement m’aider, nous discuterons au préalable du pourcentage que je vous donnerai sur la somme totale se trouvant dans la mallette. En fait, depuis la mort de mon mari, ses freres m’ont chassée de la maison familiale et ont essayé a plusieurs reprises de porté atteinte a ma vie pensant qu’a ma mort tous les documents légaux des biens que possédaient mon mari leur reviendraient de plein droit.Grâce a la notoriété et aux relatons influentes que possedent les freres de mon mari, ils ont réussi a m’arracher toutes les propriétés de mon défunt mari ainsi que tous ses biens matériels. Mais ils ne se sont pas arretés la et m’ont obligée a leur révéler tous les comptes bancaires de mon défunt mari en menaçant a nouveau ma vie.Je leur est donc donner ces informations et ils ont confisqués tous les comptes bancaires de feu mon mari.Je leur est tout révéler sauf l’existence de ce dépôt que j’ai fait au sein de la compagnie de finance et de sécurité a Abidjan en côte d’ivoire car ceci représente tout mon secret espoir caché. La famille de mon défunt mari n’est donc pas informé de l’existence de ce dépôt que j’ai fait au sein de la compagnie de sécurité et elle ne le saura jamais. Cependant, j’ai toujours peur des freres de mon mari car ils continuent a m’espionner et vont jusqu’a écouter mes conversations. C’est pourquoi j’ai décidé de chercher quelqu’un de confiance a l’extérieur des philippines qui m’aidera a retirer la mallette de la compagnie de finance et de sécurité et placer discretement l’argent dans son compte a l’étranger pour un investissement futur. Je vous demande de considérer ma situation qui est celle d’une veuve et de venir a mon aide car aujourd’hui a part cette mallette, je n’ai plus d’argent et ma situation financiere est plus que difficile(ma situation financiere est a zéro). Et ma demande d’aide est d’autant plus urgente que je paye 100 dollars par jour a cette compagnie de sécurité comme frais de stockage et de sécurité de ma mallette. Si vous désirez m’aider, je vous ferez parvenir dans mon prochain email, les coordonnées de la compagnie de securité afin que vous les contactiez pour l’envoie immédiat de cette mallette vers vous pour la securiser. Je vous remercie infiniment pour votre coopération et j’attends de vos nouvelles pour la conclusion de cette affaire. Bien a vous MADAME VILLARAN NENITA NB:Que cette année soit pour nous source d'espoir

My Dear Good Friend, How are you today? Sorry for any inconveniences. Well, I just want to use this medium to thank you very much for your earlier assistance to help me in receiving the inheritance funds, without any positive outcome.I am obliged to inform you that I have succeeded in receiving the funds with the help of a new partner from SPAIN. Everything was perfectly done because we strike a deal with one of the Lady accountant who works with the Remittance Department of the Federal Ministry of Finance (FMF)and she rendered a tremendous help to us. My new partner initiated this idea and everything worked out successfully.In appreciation of your earlier assistance to me in receiving the Funds, I have decided to compensate you with the sum of $850,000 in a Cashier's cheque (Eight Hundred and FiftyThousand United States Dollars). This is from my own share of $10.5m, I did this simply to show you that it is good to do good things to the right people always. Presently, I am in SPAIN for investment project with my own share under the advice of my partner Mr. Mathew Paul. Meanwhile,I didn't forget your past efforts and attempts to assist me in transferring those funds despite that it failed us somehow. I will be sending you mail to know if you have received your share or not. Now contact my personal assistant in Benin Republic. His name is Mr.David Mark send him your contact address where you want the cheque to be sent to you. His e-mail addres is:( davide_marks(a)yahoo.it ) Please do let me know immediately you receive the money so that we can share the joy together after all the suffering at that time. In the moment, I'm very busy here in chile because of the investment projects, which the new partner and I are having at hand. So feel free to get in touch with Mr. David Mark to send the cheque to you without any delay. With My Best Regards, Honourable Franklux Gordon

"I wish NetApp had Raid5, this could have eliminated some issues like using 2 dual-parity drives." Why ? Somehow I get the impression, looking at the last few messages, that the majority does not understand raid_dp and the differences to raid_4. For practical purposes raid5 + some filesystem is "like" raid4 + wafl, particulary when you compare the data : parity disk ratio. Comparing raid4 to raid_dp you should notice that raid_dp provides a better protection with equal overhead when used on large volumes/aggregates. Large aggregates use the same number of parity disks but the raid_dp parity disks protect twice as many data disks compared to raid4. Sometimes the cost of one drive can be justified to provide additional protection on small volumes/aggregates, if not than you can always use raid4 instead. Btw: there is an interesting document on WAFL in the knowledgebase - it is definitely worthwile to understand the principles behind WAFL to understand the benefits of raid4 and raid_dp.

RE: Storage space overheads!

Marge... I'd much rather have RAID-DP than RAID5 - RAID-DP affords for faster read\write access and the ability to lose TWO drives without losing data (raid5 can only lose one). If you feel strongly about not wanting to use multiple disks for parity, use traditional RAID4 - still faster read\write access when compared to RAID5, but obviously you won't have as much resiliency to failure.

Dear Friend, I work as the Head of Fund Manager Executive with Fidelity Investment UK, the World Leading Investment & Fund Management Institution based in UK/Channel Island. I have an Investor under my portfolio with a closing balance of $42.870m as his first initial deposit. This Investor died three years ago leaving no WILL or AUTHORIZATION for re-transfer of his Investment and its proceeds to the INHERITOR.I have personally carried out an Investigation on the subject matter that took me 12 months to finalize and was made to understand that the Family or Relatives of the Investor knows nothing about his Investment with Fidelity and none have any records of all his deposits and investment with us leaving an avenue for claiming of the said funds with its accrued interest on presentation of a trustworthy person that can stand as the INHERITOR to the deceased . If you are interested, I can present you as the INHERITOR with proper documentation that will qualify you to have the funds claimed and on doing this, our establishment will not question the release of the funds to you as I will make sure that we comply with the laid down rules and laws of claiming the Investment of a deceased Investor in our Establishment. Our sharing ratio will be 50:50.Please contacted me for more detail breakdown if interested. Looking forward to hearing from you shortly. Sincerely. Mr.John Fisher. www.fidelity.co.uk

Dear Friend..............Important information please replay
by Tomas Traore 29 Jul '06

29 Jul '06

Dear Friend, I sourced your e-mail address from the internet directory as we have not previously known each other. However, every relationship begins one day I am Eng.Tomas Traore, the site inspection director with the ministry of works and construction and I work directly with the Minister in charge of the Ministry here in Republic of Sudan. I awarded a contract for IRRIGATION to a Portuguese firm worth several millions of dollars a few years ago. In the course of executing the project the firm discovered large gold deposit in one of the construction sites. Being the site director I collaborated with the firm in the mining of the gold on a mutual agreement to share the proceeds out of which I got a share of $16.4 million dollars. As an ordinary director and a mere civil servant in this small war torn country, I cannot introduce this funds into the banking system here considering my meager monthly income as well as the code of conduct guidelines regulating civil service here in my country, Sudan. Presently Sudan is engulfed in a civil crisis and as this crisis intensified by the day, I decided to leave with my family and succeeded in also moving this fund out of Sudan under diplomatic cover. I am presently out of Sudan I therefore solicit for your co-operation to take delivery of this fund into your custody for any profitable investment that will be mutually beneficial. I will be able to arrange all necessary procedures to ensure smooth movement of this funds until you are in control of it. Please let me know if you are interested by return mail and also include your full names and contact telephone number to enable me call you. I will provide you with my contact telephone and where I am presently as soon as you indicate appreciable interest to deal Please contact me on this email address (tomastraore2000(a)terra.com.ve). Thanks and God bless Regards, Eng. Tomas Traore

dont let me down
by Marie Roberts 29 Jul '06

29 Jul '06

Hello, You may be surprised to receive this mail, as you read this, don'tfeel so sorry for me because I know everyone will die someday. My name is Mrs. Marie Roberts, a business woman in London. I have been diagnosed with esophageal cancer which was discovered very late due to my laxity in caring for my health. It has defiled all forms of medication right now and I have only about few months' to live according to medical experts. I have never particularly lived my life so well as I never really cared for anyone not even me but my business. Though I am very rich, but I was never generous, I was always hostile to people and I only focus on my business as that was the only thing I cared for in my life. But now I regret all this as I now know that there is more to live. Though I am very rich, but I was never generous, I was always hostile to people and I only focus on my business as that was the only thing I cared for in my life. But now I regret all this as I now know that there is more to life than just wanting to have or make all the money in the world. I believed when God gives me a second chance to come to this world I would live my life in a different way from how I have lived now, but now that God has called me through this way I willed most of my properties and access to my immediate and extended family and as well as few close friends. I want God to be merciful to me and accept my soul and so with that reason I decided to give alms to CHARITY ORGANISATIONS, as I want this to be one of the last good deed I did on earth, so far I have distributed money to some Charity Organization in countries like India and Sudan. Now that my health has deteriorated so badly, I cannot do this myself anymore. I once asked my family members to close one of my accounts and distribute the funds which I have there to CHARITY ORGANSATION in Rwanda and Pakistan; they refused and kept the money to themselves.Hence, I do not trust them anymore, as they seem not to be contended with what I have left for them. The last of the funds which no one knows of, is the cash deposit in one of the banks here.I want to know if you can be of good help to dispatch these funds to CHARITY organizations. I have set aside 20% of the total amount $1,500,000.00 One million five hundred thousand dollars) for you and your time and patience for carrying out this duties.This means you will keep $300,000 (three hundred thousand dollars) for yourself and donate the rest to any charity organisation. May God be with you as you have decided to take a bold step to heal the world with me or even in my demise. If you can give me this assistance, you can send an email to my lawyer who has all the legal documents covering this transaction. He would give you more details. His name is Barr. Larry Smith and his email address is: ( larrysmith36(a)aim.com ) He would guide you through receiving the funds. Best Regards, Marie Roberts

My dear, Before I introduce myself, I wish to inform you that this letter is not a hoax mail and I urge you to treat it serious.I am a Director in Procurement Department with Petroleum Ministry.I obtained your email while searching for a reliable person,who could assist me in receiving transfer of a supposed contract awarded funds. This fund came as a result of over estimated contract awarded sums executed by foreign contractors in the Petroleum Ministry here in Nigeria.The concerned Ministry has approved these over invoiced funds for payment. The contracts which the over invoiced sums was created from has been executed and commissioned.What I am about to receive now,is the over estimated funds which was added during the process of obtaining the contracts for my own interest.This is a normal deal that goes in my Ministry by top officials. All I want from you is to receive these funds on my behalf as a Sub-Let Company, because as Government Official I cannot collect the funds directly from my Ministry,neither I am allowed by Law to operate/ run foreign bank accounts.If you are trustworthy and can assist me in receiving the fund,do not hesitate to respond back to me immediately. Looking forward to hearing from you soonest. Best regards, Engineer Frank Bello

According to NetApp, ESX v3 is not yet supported by the 940Cs. Has anyone had a change to test this set up (or any other unsupported clustered filer) in a live environment? I heard we should have support by September, but my server team is hot to trot to deploy before then.

DFM 3.0 - renaming hosts
by John Stoffel 28 Jul '06

28 Jul '06

I'm running DFM 3.0 for some basic reporting, and I'd like to rename some NetCache appliances which were added in with their name being their IP address, and not their hostname. Makes it a pain to remember which one is which. Is my only option to delete and re-add the NetCache? Thanks, John
