NIS groups not showing up
by Lance R. Mehle 14 Oct '00

14 Oct '00

Hi all, I have a problem that I was wondering if any of you have seen. We have a little over 2000 groups in our NIS+ environment. When I check the nis_cache file on the filer about 399 are missing. A ypgroup also shows the group(s) missing from the filer although a ypmatch can find the group(s). It also appears that the same groups are effected all the time. The groups are fine on the UNIX side. Help! Lance

Hello James, If you're using Data ONTAP 6.0 or later you can specify multiple directories on one filer. The option you need to set is called "cifs.home_dir" and you can use a comma separated list with a maximum of 255 characters. Here's a sample command: options cifs.home_dir vol\vol0\homes,vol\vol1\more_homes Data ONTAP 6.0 has another new option as well called "cifs.home_dir_namestyle." This option allows you to change how a username is used for mapping the home directory. Here are the three options with descriptions: ntname (or nothing): This is the same as with ONTAP 5.x. The user's home directory name must match the user's NT domain account name. mapped: The user's home directory name must match the user's mapped UNIX user name. domain: Under the root home directory (set with the cifs.home_dir option), you need to create one subdirectory for each domain that the filer trusts. Each user's directory is then created under their respective domain directory. The user's home directory name must match the user's NT domain account name and the domain directory must match the user's domain.

RE: Trivia: what do the splodges on the LCD represent?
by Mohler, Jeff 14 Oct '00

The scale is "realative" to recent readings. If the last reading or so was 12, and the current one is 3000, it'll peg. If the last reading or so was 3000, and the current one is 12, it'll sag. It shifts..its part of the MEI.

Ten splodges equals how many ops? It looks to me more like some sort of autoscaling based on a rolling average, as I have seen the bar graph shoot off to the right during slack times when the number is relatively low compared to its rated max ops/sec.

Its just representing activity over the most recent "period". That period is probly relative to the last measurement displayed. -----Original Message----- From: Jamie Lawrence [mailto:jal@thirdage.com] Sent: Friday, October 13, 2000 2:22 PM To: Chris Thompson; toasters(a)mathworks.com Subject: Re: Trivia: what do the splodges on the LCD represent?

What is actually being measured here? The >number of splodges is correlated with the number, but not very >strongly, and the number has a far larger dynamic range. After staring at that thing and wondering myself, it looks to me as if it is sort of a sliding rate-of-change meter. When there is a big surge in #/Ops over a short period of time, bar jumps up a lot. Ditto for a big decrease in ops, shaving the bar. However, I've seen the bar nearly pegged with a relatively small number of ops (say, 400 or so) and hanging around 50% when the machine in question was pushing as many as I ever have seen it push. In general, I think the main purpose is to have Cool Blinky Lights. -j
