Low SMB throughput
by Alfred Lerch 09 Oct '00

09 Oct '00

Friends, we are running a F740 in a heterogenous NFS/SMB environment. While we are completely happy on NFS performance SMB performance is not what we would like it to be. But it is only on some Win95 and NT 4.0 where then throughput is low, other Win95 and NT 4.0 systems with the same configuration are fine (as far as you are able to state that two Windows installations are the same). Looking to our 3Com switches shows us that it is not an issue on the ethernet level. I personally guess that it is a protocol issue between the NetApp and Microsoft implementation of CIFS/SMB/NetBIOS over TCP/IP but I'm unable to verify this. Any ideas where we might start looking ? Has anyone experienced a similar issue ? regards alfred -- -- \\\\\/// / ^ _ \ ( (o) (o) ) --- That's all folks --- +=oOOO=====(_)=====OOOo==========================================+ |Alfred Lerch Mentor Graphics Deutschland GmbH| |Network & System Administrator Elsenheimer Str. 41 - 43| |IT - Business Support Team Munich D-80687 Muenchen, Germany| |email: alfred_lerch(a)mentor.com Fax : +49 89 57096-400| |Tel. : +49 89 57096-241 Mobile: +49 172 8915200| | | |Helpdesk IT Central Europe in Munich | |Tel. : +49 89 57096-110 internal: 777| |email: helpdesk_dem(a)mentor.com | +=============Oooo.==============================================+ .oooO ( ) ( ) ) / \ ( (_/ \_)

RE: Mac G4 with NetApp

It should work fine but you need to make sure that it's has the appropriate client installed. What OS are you on (OSX supports NFS)? Are you running the Dave client for CIFS access? www.thursby.com -----Original Message----- From: Mathew Anderson [mailto:mathew@nm.net] Sent: Monday, October 09, 2000 9:59 AM To: toasters(a)mathworks.com Subject: Mac G4 with Netapp Has anyone tried to get a G4 to mount a netapp share?

RE: mixing 18GB and 36GB drives
by Whitman, Matthew 09 Oct '00

09 Oct '00

If there is a 18GB drive available (or for that matter 2/4/9/etc.) The filer will take the appropriate drive size spare to rebuild that drive. In your example: > > I've got a filer with a shelf of 36's (one RG/volume) and two > >shelves of 18's (one RG/volume); each RG has a hot spare. The following would happen: 1) 18GB drive fails; the filer grabs the 18GB spare 2) 36GB drive fails; the filer grabs the 36GB spare 3) 18GB drive fails and rebuilds to the 18GB spare, you then lose another drive, the filer will grab the only remaining spare, the 36GB drive. I hope that clears things up.

Re: budtool
by Louis Brune 09 Oct '00

09 Oct '00

My thanks. I've received several replies. The summary is: Just make the path be something like /vol/myvolume which I was already doing. One person asked about existence of /etc on each volume. Yup. It's there, and writable by root (who runs the backup). The Budtool support folk have had this question pending for a while; I've just stirred them up again this morning, I hope.- Apparently, I'm just unlucky. (I even intended to send this out Friday afternoon). -- Moderation in all things, except love. Louis

There *must* be a way to back up a filer with more than one volume using Budtool; right? If you're doing this, can you give me a hint? -- Louis

RE: F520 EOL surprise.

I thought the records were out of date, and I was the only one who did'nt get an EOA notice...Ho humm.. -----Original Message----- From: Jim Davis [mailto:jdavis@cs.arizona.edu] Sent: 05 October 2000 22:40 To: toasters(a)mathworks.com Subject: F520 EOL surprise. As the proud owners of two F520s, we were a bit surprised to discover that netapp is discontinuing software support for them at the end of this month. Particularly since nothing was said about that when we paid up for our annual software support contract a few months ago... The webpage at NOW <http://now.netapp.com/NOW/products/eoa/> says a customer letter was sent out about this on 6/29/99, but no one here seems to have gotten a copy. Now fortunately the small print seems to imply the real drop-dead date isn't for another two years, but still, this is not the sort of thing we like to learn from browsing the web. Particularly not *after* the boss has pitched the next 3-years-worth of major purchases to the financial powers that be! So those of you who have a F520 or two humming away in the back room might doublecheck that the netapp EOL department has your current mailing address :(
