Re: X235_SCHT5073F10 Medium Errors
by Paul Caron 15 Aug '02

Don't you worry about having another medium error on a different disk in the same volume (i.e. your parity disk) during the disk reconstruction? I believe that would count as a multiple disk failure since the disk that was failed for replacement would no longer be available for parity reconstruction. Dunno exactly how ONTAP would handle this since I've never experienced a medium error during reconstruction....yet. >Date: Thu, 15 Aug 2002 11:46:49 -0400 >From: "Paul J.

I received an update from Network Appliance Services Engineering on this issue. It contains two links I found helpful. Anissa gave permission for me to post this to toasters. Also, I should mention that the "unrecovered read error" message I've been getting is a bit misleading. I failed to mention that these were always followed by the "Scrub rewriting bad data block". Since the data was succesfully reconstructed, there was no data loss. In that sense, the errors were actually recoverable. ------------- Begin Forwarded Message ------------- From: "Mohler, Anissa" <Anissa.Mohler(a)netapp.com> To: "'caron(a)sig.com'" <caron(a)sig.com> Cc: "Mohler, Anissa" <Anissa.Mohler(a)netapp.com> Subject: Medium Errors Date: Thu, 15 Aug 2002 09:38:30 -0700 MIME-Version: 1.0 Hi Paul, The information given to you was in error. Medium errors at the rate you describe (e.g. 1 per week) is perfectly OK... there is a 'bug' you can look up on the NOW site that describe this in a bit more detail: bug 68517 http://now.netapp.com/NOW/cgi-bin/bol?Type=Detail&Display=68517 We're also working on publishing more information about understanding and handling medium errors to the now site. Our apologies for the confusion. Data ONTAP will warn you if the medium errors are an issue... the function called Storage Health Monitor monitors the error frequency and will recommend failing the drive if needed.

X235_SCHT5073F10 Medium Errors
by Paul Caron 15 Aug '02

15 Aug '02

Has anyone been noticing an unusual occurrence of medium errors (i.e unrecovered read errors) for the 72 GB FC-AL disks (X235_SCHT5073F10)? I have several recently purchased F840 filers, running ONTAP 6.2R2, with these disks in DS14 disk shelves. The disks all have the latest firmware revision (NA04). The DS14 shelf firmware is up to date as well (Rev. 11). I've been getting about 1 medium error every week (a total of 9 so far), during the disk scrub process. The errors are on different disks, in different filers. The only common factor, so far, is the drive type. I'm finding this unusual since I've run F740s for years with medium errors being VERY infrequent (i.e. one). Is this possibly related to the drive size? The F740s had the Seagate (ST118202FC and ST318203FC) 18 GB drives. I have pursued this with Netapp Technical Support. However, since the errors are still considered infrequent, the only suggestion I have received so far is to replace the disks that have shown errors, which might be happening shortly. I'm just wondering if anyone else is seeing the same thing.

NFS Delay
by Tim Longo 12 Aug '02

12 Aug '02

I've noticed that when I make a change on an nfs mounted file system on my Netapp from one machine, it sometimes takes anywhere from a few seconds to a minute for other machines that access the same nfs mounted file system to see the change I made from the first machine. The clients are unix and linux machines. Example: On my admin host (unix machine), I change permissions on an exported directory. A unix client that automounts this directory takes 20 to 30 seconds before I see the directory permissions change. Anyone else experience something like this? What sort of things should I be checking to reduce or eliminate this delay? Thanks.

if the filer is "real working" with local groups and you are shure that there are no other permissions given - then its not a problem to move the filer to the new domain. the local groups don't change - all the memebers will be there and also the acls. to change the filer to w2k sometimes you need to create the machine-account before moving. we did this with several nt4 boxes, w2k boxes and 2 toasters.

Re: ndmpcopy performance on F740

Brian, I have seen 6.5MBytes between an F760 and an F820. Are you using UDP or TCP? And (ignorant question) is Fast ethernet Gigabit or 100Mbit?

Upgrade issues with 6.1.2r3
by Sayla, Mustafa 09 Aug '02

09 Aug '02

Earlier I had posted a problem regarding the upgrade from 6.0.1r3 to 6.1.2r3. With the help of netapp support we were able to resolve the problem and in the process found out that there is a bug (Bug ID 50610 and 40696) in 6.1.2r3 that for complete Windows 2000 functionality your NetBIOS name should be the 15 leftmost character of the DNS name. in our case our NetBIOS name is MFI and DNS name is mesirowfinancial.net. The bug states that this will work but the filer will behave as a windows NT4 server instead of a Windows 2000 server. Well this defeats the purpose of upgrading the ONTap version so to test it we setup a domain with NetBIOS name as Mesirow and DNS name as Mesirow.net. Now this meets the requirement for upgrade but during cifs setup when we put the domain name as Mesirow.net, we get the following error: "DNS does not appear to be configured correctly for proper windows 2000 operation in this domain. The filer could not resolve simple domain name 'MESIROW' to DNS form 'MESIROW.NET" This is the same error we were receiving before with NetBIOS name of MFI and DNS name of mesirowfinancial.net. "DNS does not appear to be configured correctly for proper windows 2000 operation in this domain. The filer could not resolve simple domain name 'MESIROWFINANCIA' to DNS form 'MESIROWFINANCIAL.NET" We have checked our configuration for DNS and WINS and do not find anything wrong in it. Any help on this issue would be highly appreciated. Network Appliance technical support is working with me on this and are very helpful. Mustafa
