Hi all Quick update: an apparent bug in 6.5.1(R1) causes this. We've run up both a later 6.5 release and a 7.0.3 release in the lab, and they both fix the problem.

RE: Replacing our NetApp
by Glenn Walker 06 Feb '06

06 Feb '06

That's one way of looking at it. Another way of looking at it is this: don't be bleeding edge, but don't run the oldest stuff you can find either. 6.5 isn't antiquated and I wouldn't suggest not using this (except for all of those nasty NFS bugs in 6.5.2). At the same time, 7.0 has been out for quite some time and is starting to get pretty solid. What I should have said was: always go with the latest available release that has proven itself to be stable\reliable. 7.0.3 has bugs... but how many does 6.5.6 have? Part of the issues that we all face is the fact that some bugs are NEVER fixed in the current release tree... there are some that we require a fix for, but it will only be fixed in 7.1... NetApp is going to start changing how much they will back-port, even in a D release model.

RE: Replacing our NetApp
by Carter K. George 03 Feb '06

03 Feb '06

Yes, but all of the NAS vendors have some sort of block storage (or SAN) on the back end. NetApps uses Fibre Channel arbitrated loop "SAN's" for the block access that their file system needs to access storage. So I don't ever think of this whole SAN versus NAS thing as relevant. You always have both file and block access needs. In the simplest case, NAS is the front end and SAN is the back end (and may be effectively hidden, as with NetApps), but there's no case where there's not some sort of block access going on behind a NAS. -----Original Message----- From: owner-toasters(a)mathworks.com [mailto:owner-toasters@mathworks.com] On Behalf Of Glenn Walker Sent: Wednesday, February 01, 2006 7:57 AM To: Kevin H. Schoener; Michael Bergman; toasters(a)mathworks.com Subject: RE: Replacing our NetApp To clarify this a bit further (it was a favored question of the interview teams at NetApp): It's all about how the data is moved more than it is where it lives. SAN is BLOCK LEVEL data transfer. NAS is FILE LEVEL transfer. In other words, SAN - iSCSI and FCP - both transfer data via blocks of information. NAS - NFS and CIFS - both transfer data via a file with a handle of some sort. -----Original Message----- From: owner-toasters(a)mathworks.com [mailto:owner-toasters@mathworks.com] On Behalf Of Kevin H. Schoener Sent: Wednesday, February 01, 2006 3:01 AM To: 'Michael Bergman'; toasters(a)mathworks.com Subject: RE: Replacing our NetApp Michael - here's my 2¢. iSCSI and FCP are specifically SAN technologies and NFS is specifically not. The difference is not the fabric or packeting so much as it is where the file system lives. NFS is NAS, so the file system is owned and controlled by the NAS device. In an iSCSI or FCP SAN, the file system is owned and controlled by the Server(s) to which the SAN is attached... Another way to think of it is that SAN technologies utilize device-type commands, whereas NAS technologies simply say "give me data or take the data" and it's up to the NAS device to decide where to put it... I believe the point is that the NFS deployment on a NetApp filer takes FULL advantage of Data OnTap features and performance. ..okay, maybe I went longer than 2¢ worth... sorry Kevin H.

He's right, the traditional volumes will not be able to be upgraded. You have to have the room to migrate your storage over. We used a SnapMirror to new discs to accomplish our migration. That's the only small drawback to the 7.x flex vols. Everything else about them is golden. We have used NetApp for many years and use them in many creative ways, but the flex vols have opened up new worlds to us. You will want to check with your rep and make sure you are running the proper release. 7.x comes in a few flavors, some may be better for one part of your environment and some for others.

You may not be able to run a seamless transfer from trad to flexvol using just NetAPP; however, if you are using complimentary software such as VFM or even hardware such as Acopia you can do it.

Always go with the latest available release :) We've also had problems with our filers (I think 6 bugs in the 6 weeks I've been here)... however, we're running 7.0.0.1 which was pretty abysmal as far as reliability. 7.0.4 should be the new Safe Harbor release when it comes out - it will do much for stability. As for the quota bug(s), I think there is still one that exists in 7.0.4, but will probably be addressed with a P release. Personally, I'd feel comfortable with upgrading to 7.0.4 for our enterprise, but also looking at 7.1 when it gets cooked a bit more - some good enhancements for Exchange in that release.
