NetApp3140 v EMC CX4-240
by Paul McGuinness 06 May '09

06 May '09

I am after opinions / Pros and Cons on running a substantial VMware infrastructure of approximate 200+ VMs using the 2 mentioned storage systems. Obvious benefits of the NetApp seem to be around the De-Dupe out of the box. Any other thoughts / experiences would be appreciated Fibre attached Dell R900s will be running the ESX side of things.

Re-exporting your /etc/exports - how do I get a change in order of shares to take effect?
by Page, Jeremy 05 May '09

05 May '09

I have several NFS mount points that also have child directories also exported and I've been told that you should export the parent directories first, then the children. I've updated my /etc/exports file and ran exportfs -r on the filer but it does not look like it's taking effect if I do an exportfs to see what's currently exported. How do I get the exports in the correct order? Please be advised that this email may contain confidential information.

Re: Warning for people doing a head upgrade from a 3050 to a 3170

> > I dont think the issue here, is that netapp doesnt document where to > download the PROPER version of ONTAP. Agreed. I think my biggest issue is that I misinterpreted the documentation. In the docs when it say's : Go to the NOW site at http://now.netapp.com/NOW/main/software.shtml and > download the version of Data ONTAP for your existing system that matches the > version installed on the FAS31xx system. > I interpreted this as meaning download the version for your existing system (3050 in my case) that matches the version installed on the FAS3170, which I assumed meant the version number (7.2.6.1) in my case. But..ya think you're reading "upgrade version" a little too...narrowly? Yes, I guess I was. How can Netapp prevent this chain of errors? I would say by doing what you and I have both suggested.

I stated in the original message: The documentation states that you need to bring the 3050 heads up-to the > same software level as the 3170 heads. If you read the rest of the doc it says this: *If your FAS3020 or FAS3050 system has... * *Then...* The same version of Data ONTAP as the FAS31xx system Go to Step 3. A version of Data ONTAP different from the one on the FAS31xx system Go to Step 2. Step 3 is to continue with the install, Step 2 is to upgrade the *version*of OnTap to the level of the FAS3170. To me version says software level, not different binaries for the different arch. Besides, step 3 is to continue with the install. Under what case would you have a 3170 build of OnTap on your filers before you start an upgrade? All of this tilted towards making me believe that they were concerned with the software version on the heads. If this is not the case it needs to be made clear.

Warning for people doing a head upgrade from a 3050 to a 3170
by Romeo Theriault 30 Apr '09

30 Apr '09

Here is a warning for people that might be doing a head upgrade from a 3050 to a 3170 (and possibly other heads). The documentation states that you need to bring the 3050 heads up-to the same software level as the 3170 heads. This may very well be the case but they fail to mention that the 3170 uses a different build of OnTap and that you need to upgrade OnTap on the 3170's immediately after the upgrade with the build for the 3170's. So right now we are running 3170's with a build of OnTap 7.2.6.1 built for the 3050's and getting these errors in syslog: na1-u-e0a [na1-u: mgr.stack.openFail:warning]: Unable to open function name/address mapping file /etc/boot/mapfile_7.2.6.1.2O: No such file or directory Netapp Supports response is: "Upgrade or you'll probably get Kernel Panics." and "We'll try to update the documentation." Needless to say I'm not impressed. -- Romeo Theriault System Administrator Information Technology Services

Protection Manager
by steve klise 27 Apr '09

27 Apr '09

I have an issue with protection manager 3.7. I have a primary filer (6030 ontap 7.24) that I have backups running to another filer (3070 7.3P5D1). I have manually created the resource volumes on the 3070, and DPM creates the qtree snapmirrror relationship with no issues between filers. The backup happens at 8pm (default policy), and everything is hunky dory. Over time, the GUI has an overall status of normal, then goes to lag warning, then lag error. The snapmirror status is current, and I have removed all the alerts per kb (https://now.netapp.com/Knowledgebase/solutionarea.asp?id=kb42558), but still stays with a status of error. What is strange is if I do a manual backup, it goes from error to normal. All the jobs that run at 8pm are completed, and succeded. This is not in prod yet, but would save the backup guys about 26 hours on the weekend, so they are interested it getting this resolved. I dont want to upgrade the filers to 7.3.1. I am waiting for 7.3.2 to come out, and most likely will not go live on DPM until 3.8 comes out. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Protection-Manager-tp23262914p23262914.html Sent from the Network Appliance - Toasters mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

FYI, online netapp classes available
by Nicholas Bernstein 20 Apr '09

20 Apr '09

Hi all, Sorry for the spam, but I thought it might be useful for some folks - Instructor lead online netapp courses are available now. Fundamentals, NCDA Bootcamp, Performance Analysis, etc, pretty much all the standard netapp courses. This is actually a pretty nice way to take a class, typically some of the classes like performance analysis are only taught by a few instructors (myself, two others) outside of netapp, so it's hard to get a physical class for some of the more advanced stuff. Anyone who's interested can either book through http://www.netapp.com/us/services/university/learning.html or http://www.fastlaneus.com/courses/netapp/NetApp (authorized parter) or email info(a)fastlaneus.com -Nick Ps: this was a one time email, I'm not in sales, sorry to anyone who considers this spam.

Size of installations ?
by James Beal 20 Apr '09

20 Apr '09

I was wondering how much storage people are putting behind their storage heads ? I can see that a 3170 nominally goes up to 840TB or 420 per head but do people actually put that much storage on a single unit ? I can see that the V series supports SVC, how common is this configuration ? We need to be aiming for about a half Petabyte per rack, I can see how I could do this with a DDN S2A9900 behind an SVC, I would be interested to hear peoples opinion.

The cluster is up but WebUI shows one of the member's (DFE_61) link down. The Database group state is ABORTED and replication state is RECOVER.The log on DFE_61 shows Software problem PRC2 1:6 watchdog 1182......PRC2 1:7 PRC2 1:8 PRC2 1:9 PRC2 1:10 PRC2 18:9 etc. Tech Support not available till monday... guys please help...

RE: Network routing question

yes, i forgot to include the VSS/SMLT extensions (we use cisco switches). http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SMLT although rereading the original it sounds like they just want redundant links versus increased bandwidth and high availability at the same time. the standard vif with a vif favor will accomplish this and is quite simple. vif favor will also return the connection to the primary switch when it's connection is restored rather than remain on the standby switch. ________________________________________ From: Robert Blayzor [rblayzor.bulk(a)inoc.net] Sent: Thursday, April 16, 2009 1:47 PM To: Leeds, Daniel Cc: Stephen C.

Network routing question
by Stephen C. Losen 16 Apr '09

16 Apr '09

Does a host route override a network route on a netapp head? I have an interface plugged into one switch with IP 192.168.5.6 netmask 255.255.255.0 and I have a second interface plugged into a different switch with IP 192.168.5.7 netmask 255.255.255.0 One switch is "primary" and the other is "standby" for redundancy. There is obviously a routing ambiguity here. Which port does the filer use to reach the 192.168.5 network? It seems to have picked one port (fortunately on the 'active' switch) which I see listed in the routing table. The other port is not listed in any routes at all. But I was wondering if I could add explicit host routes to the IP addresses on the standby switch. I tried this and it didn't work (ping failed). The destination IP that I tried to ping was on another filer head. It occurred to me that I probably need to set the corresponding route on the other head, so I did that. The routes are listed in the route table, but ping still does not work. I checked the ARP table and neither head has the MAC address of the other in its ARP table. So I suppose that despite the host route, the ARP broadcast is going out the wrong interface. I think we need separate subnets here but I'm just the storage guy and did not configure the hosts that are plugged into these two switches. Things are working, all traffic is on the active switch. But I sure don't see how things could ever fail over to the standby switch without manual intervention. Steve Losen scl(a)virginia.edu phone: 434-924-0640 University of Virginia ITC Unix Support

nearstore & PAM cards
by Nicholas Bernstein 14 Apr '09

14 Apr '09

All, Just out of curiosity - has anyone used a PAM card with a nearstore license? The thought that I had here is that nearstore readjusts the read:write cache ratio in onboard memory, allocating a larger percentage for writes and system usage. Pam cards are dedicated to reads, and thus might allow for more "normal" performance even on a nearstore system... thoughts? I'm just kind of spitballing here. -Nick

Question regarding power controls for DS14 shelves in NetApp cabinets
by Sto Rage© 02 Apr '09

02 Apr '09

We recently had a brown out in one of our smaller data center, and when the power came back, the AC units did not kick in on time. The filers came online and promptly heated up, causing over temperature alarms to go off. These NetApp units are in standard NetApp cabinets so the only way (that we know of) to shutdown was to be physically on-site to turnoff the breakers to these cabinets. The question to all toasters is how do you remotely turn off the shelves when you have a situation like this? Most of the heat is generated by the shelves, and we couldn't find a way to shutdown the shelves remotely. Shutting down the heads don't help as the disks are still spinning and generating heat. Do you have remote controlled power outlets for these L6-20 /L6-30 power connectors that these shelves use? Can you recommend some solutions? thanks in advance -Sto Rage

Multpath for Fedora 4 Appliance
by Rob Borowicz 02 Apr '09

02 Apr '09

Excuse the non-filer related question, but I'm kinda desperate and I know some folks here probably diddled with this one. I work for a company that makes a Network Management appliance based on Fedora 4. Hey it had what they needed when they locked down the LAMP platform 5 years ago, and as the saying goes "it works for us". Next gen product beta's in about 2 weeks and is based on CentOS 5.2... So one of our major customers wants to locate our DB (MySQL) on a SAN fabric and they have purchased Qlogic QLE 2460's for the DB host. We include the drivers in the locked down minimalized Fedora so getting the cards going is as simple as "insert and boot". My question is: The customer (understandably) wants to use dual cards and Multipathing and EMC will laugh at us trying to consider PowerPath. So I'm looking at "device-mapper-multipath". Anybody mess with this ever? I'm just beginning my research, and as a wild stab I found an OLD version of the device-mapper package (0.4.4-2.3) and the Sysfsutils (1.1.0-1) that it needed and installed it on a lab version of our product. So at least the package would install. Now to try and get it working. The customer has the luxury of a lab instance of our set up and might be willing to take a stab at this with me if it'll come within100 yards of working at all reliably. I'd love to hear any comments of folks who've run this in the past or currently use Multipath in a Red Hat derivative. Thanks in advance! -Bob B.

Throttling
by David.Ashton＠rullion.co.uk 31 Mar '09

31 Mar '09

Hi Toasters We run our snapmirrors overnight mostly, to a DR site which just happens to be a working office. Sometimes they're still running in the morning, and they eat all the bandwidth. We throttle them in the snapmirror management. We do this manually and its a pain and sometime we forget etc. What I'd like to do is (probably) script and schedule some SSH commands to set the bandwidth throttle on the volumes so that they are restricted during working hours, but open out of hours. Is there a global method of doing this, or do I have configure each of my snapmirror vols separately? Also, never actually scripted SSH before, I cant find any decent pointers, is this a regular thing to do with filers?

Security best practice question
by Stephen C. Losen 30 Mar '09

30 Mar '09

Hello toasters, Our Oracle admins are replacing their old FC SAN storage and are considering going with NetApp and NFS. But they are concerned about security. They are really attracted to flex clone because they would like to instantly replicate a database on a secure, firewalled Oracle server, run a job to sanitize the clone and then serve the sanitized DB from a less secure Oracle server in a DMZ. They are concerned that if the DMZ server were hacked, could it be leveraged to gain unauthorized NFS access, perhaps by hijacking an IP address? I have suggested that they set up two separate private data Ethernets, one for the secure servers and one for the DMZ servers. Use two different address blocks (subnets) and plug the netapp into both networks with two different ethernet ports. That way the netapp would never send data exported to the secure servers out the interface for the DMZ servers. Am I on the right track here? Is this "secure enough"? Is there an easier way? We don't have any Kerberos infrastructure and we can't sacrifice performance, so I think NFSv4 is out. Steve Losen scl(a)virginia.edu phone: 434-924-0640 University of Virginia ITC Unix Support

Re: Security best practice question
by Fox, Adam 27 Mar '09

Sounds like a solid plan. Plus since ONTAP-NFS sees the clone as a separate volume you only need to export the clone to the less secure network. If you really want to split it security-wise, you could implement multistore and assign the clone to a vfiler which is managed administratively like a separate box and gives you an even bigger firewall. I think that may be overkill, but it's there if you want it. -- Adam Fox ------------------------ Typed with my thumbs on a very small keyboard. ----- Original Message ----- From: Stephen C.
