Check to see if your /etc/password file is missing on the Filer. Should at least look like: root::0:1::/: pcuser::65534:65534::/: nobody::65535:65535::/: Can you see ANY shares from your client?

Re: Networker "no output" error?

Try setting the timeout value in the client setup higher - from 30 to 60. I've seen volumes with thousands of small files timeout while Networker "crawled" the directory structure. Bumping the timeout value has ensured successful/complete backups since then. Although I don't recall ever getting the 'no output' error.

anyone knows this behaviour? we're running 6.1.1 on F740 w/ an direct attached ATL L200 (1 Drive) Backupserver is an E450 w/ Solaris 8 and NBU 3.4 DC. NBU always sets the drive in the L200 down. Also i'm upping the drive it lasts bout 30 sec. till the drive is down again. no ndmp backup is possible. a started dump from the filer is working fine. the nbu config seems ok. authorization works, robtest and tldtest from the nbu-server on the L200 also works. could this be a problem cause of missing /etc/dumpdates? who can read an "ndmpd debug 50"-output? thx h -- ------------------------------------------------------------------- Hannes Herret IT-Service / Storage phone : +43 (1) 60 126-34 Bacher Systems EDV GmbH fax : +43 (1) 60 126-555 Wienerbergstr. 11B mailto:hh@bacher.at A-1101 Wien, Austria www : http://www.bacher.at/ Europe

RAID checksum revert process
by Jeffrey Krueger 14 Sep '01

14 Sep '01

Okay, after creating 16 volumes on 6.1 machines for snapmirror from 5.3 machines, can I say that there really needs to be a "vol create" option to say "-checksums old". It has been a pain to create all these volumes just to wait for checksum reversion. Installing the filer on 5.3 and upgrading after the initial snapmirror isn't an option either - the destination already has other production volumes - besides, thats a kludge. Beyond that, has anyone else noticed that checksum reversions seem to be "single tasked"? For instance: Thu Sep 13 15:46:17 PDT [reactor: worker_thread:error]: A snapmirror transfer from vol0 to vol0 has found that the two volumes have differing checksum states. Data ONTAP is aborting the snapmirror transfer and reverting the checksum state for the destination volume vol0. After Data ONTAP displays a message showing the revert is complete, you can retry the snapmirror transfer. You can use the vol status -c command to see the progress of the reversion. Thu Sep 13 15:46:31 PDT [reactor: worker_thread:error]: A snapmirror transfer from vol0 to vol2 has found that the two volumes have differing checksum states. Data ONTAP is aborting the snapmirror transfer and reverting the checksum state for the destination volume vol2. After Data ONTAP displays a message showing the revert is complete, you can retry the snapmirror transfer. You can use the vol status -c command to see the progress of the reversion. # rsh reactor vol status -c vol0 Volume Checksum style Checksum status vol0 zoned Checksums reverting (98% done) # rsh reactor vol status -c vol2 Volume Checksum style Checksum status vol2 zoned Checksums reverting (0% done) Just an FYI for other folks - this takes a few hours to complete for each volume when the volumes are ~500GB. -- Jeff

Backup questions...
by Don Hickey 13 Sep '01

13 Sep '01

I've been having trouble with backup/restores since day one and I'm hoping someone can help me out. Our enviornment is a clustered 840 with ~3Tb of raw disk running 6.1.1R1 in a mixed environment. The backup unit is a storagetek L700 hooked to a Solaris 8 system with Netbackup 3.4. Each filer in the cluster is direct scsi connected to 4 drives (2 drives per scsi card). The library robot is attached to the solaris netbackup box, which is also the admin host. We are using NDMP. Here are the issues: - First the backups work. We had some issues where backups would not run and found that by default the OS does not have a dumpdates file. This prevented ndmp from backing up. We simply touched the file. - I can't restore anything. I get a Permission Denied error from netbackup. I don't know if this is permission denied accessing the filer (although I can't see how... I can rsh from the box -and- backups do work) or permission denied writing the files. The restore request is for a simple directory on a mixed tree, the data has no acls. Root can mount the filesystem and do what it wants with the files directly. This is by far my biggest problem... can anyone help? - After every backup there is a file structure left at the root of *every* volume. Every volume has an /etc directory with two subdirectories, /etc/oldmaps and /etc/tmp. There are subdirectories below these , Is this normal? - Netbackup does stream backups. It sequentially backs up every volume. We have four drives per filer but it will not start the backups in parallel. I can force this by creating a seperate class for every volume. Is this the way to do it? Is there any netbackup / netapp white paper? THANKS!!

I'm not aware of any reason to avoid links to files. However, current CIFS security does not allow CIFS clients to follow links that leave the share on which they originate, so that it is not possible to follow a link to another volume (unless that link is to another share, which is why it works for homedirs). This is being tracked by BURT 15808. If you want multiple volumes (or filers) to be accessed from a single point, you can use DFS to achieve this for CIFS clients.

netapps and links

We want to do someting smart to limit the number of mountpoints for our Netapp users, and to make admin more easy. Question is: "Is there a way to let the filer tell cifs and nfs -boxes to follow links pointing between volumes ,in the same way as they do concerning homedirs? " On our Netapp 760 running 6.1.1R1 we have 2 big volumes for projects : /vol/vol0/proj1 -access=eto-hosts,root=grimstad1:bagri1 /vol/vol1/proj2 -access=eto-hosts,root=grimstad1:bagri1 the same volumes are also cifs shares: PROJ1 /vol/vol0/proj1 Prosjektkataloger (PROJ1) everyone / Full Control PROJ2 /vol/vol1/proj2 Prosjektkataloger (PROJ2) Tried this experiment to limit the users to mount just /vol/vol0/proj : Made a /vol/vol/vol0/proj directory, containing links : # ls -l /fagri2/vol/vol0/proj/ lrwxrwxrwx 1 root other 19 Aug 9 15:59 adm -> /vol/vol0/proj1/adm lrwxrwxrwx 1 root other 20 Aug 9 15:59 alex -> /vol/vol0/proj1/alex lrwxrwxrwx 1 root other 19 Aug 9 15:59 aps -> /vol/vol0/proj1/aps . . . and a new cifs share: proj /vol/vol0/proj everyone / Full Control Mounted /vol/vol0/proj on a unix workstation, and it sees only links , win2000 and NT doesnt even understand what to do with a link.... ....so this is probably not the way to do it... -any good ideas? Torkel.

Judging by the vast amount of charitable advice that has been offered on this listing, I would guess that all members would be even more enthusiastic with their help in light of recent events. Thanks for reminding us why we're here. Although I'm relatively new to the NetApps experience, I'll gladly throw in my two cents worth if I can. -----Original Message----- From: Jordan Share [mailto:iso9@phantasticant.com] Sent: Wednesday, September 12, 2001 14:54 To: Pete Ehlke; ll ll Cc: toasters(a)mathworks.com Subject: RE: Assistance offered...
