RE: creating a share with vba on a filer
by Uren, Jim 11 Sep '00

11 Sep '00

Hi Ulrich, from a DOS prompt, typing net helpmsg 2116 reveals this-- The device or directory does not exist. EXPLANATION You specified an unknown device or directory. ACTION Check the spelling of the device or directory name. so checking the pathname as suggested below seems like a good idea. as I recall, if you wish to use the "vol" form of the filename, you will want to put C$ in the pathname, such as: \\filer\c$\vol\vol0\sharename\directory but the \\filer\share\directory format should work just fine. check to see if c:\> dir \\cobfile01\users$ succeeds or not for example.

Hi Stephen, Thanks for jumping in here and ending this thread. >It definitely does not seem appropriate to blame >the NDMP client. It is a filer specific issue. >Apologies to Steve Kappel. But I bet his >blood pressure wasn't high enough. ;) Naw, if I let a little thing like this bother me I'd be dead already ;) I'd rather not see this list turn into a blame game of any kind. We all have our good days and our not so good days. I would urge readers who have problems like this to use the support organizations of both NetApp and VERITAS. For at least the VERITAS side, if you are unhappy with an answer you get from the support organization please ask the support engineer to escalate the problem - use my name if you have to :) __________________________________________________________________________ Steve Kappel steve.kappel(a)veritas.com VERITAS Software steve.kappel(a)iname.com (Personal)

Your program looks correct. We do support using level 502 to add a share. Please confirm a couple of points that could be the source of the problem: 1. The user running the script is a member of either the filer's Administrators group or is a member of Power Users. That is required for NT compatible security. 2. That the path vol\nt01\users is the correct physical path to where the user's directory should be created. That is there are no other directories in the path. If neither of these resolve your problem, then please contact NetApp customer support. They will need a packet trace of this exchange and a cifs sessions -s of the user attempting to execute the script. CS can help you if you are unfamiliar with how to get a packet trace. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ mailto: hawleyr(a)netapp.com US Mail: Network Appliance Inc.

gigabit ethernet performance

Does anyone have any benchmarks/suggestions for poor performace with gigabit ethernet between Sun enterprise 220R and NetApp 740 with Intel GBII card?

Ndmpd status, doesn't revealany active ndmp sessions. These snapshots date back to 17 Aug. Any other way out..avoiding reboot prem -----Original Message----- From: Steve Kappel [mailto:steve.kappel@raistlin.min.ov.com] Sent: Friday, September 08, 2000 1:22 PM To: mrb(a)netapp.com; PrJain(a)shastanets.com Cc: toasters(a)mathworks.com Subject: RE: Deleting snapshot No, not a chance that it is the backup software (NDMP client). Consider this - if your network link goes down your backup (NDMP client) is aborted. Since you have no network link there is no way the backup product can do anything in NDMP to abort or cleanup the backup running in the filer. The filer has to be able to clean up from the NDMP session socket "going away". Since you have "failed backup processes" the NDMP session is closed on the client side. So it is OnTap that is not functioning correctly. You might try looking for the NDMP sessions with "ndmpd status" on the filer and then kill any that are running with "ndmpd kill <sessionid>". >From: Premanshu Jain <PrJain(a)shastanets.com> >To: "'mrb(a)netapp.com'" <mrb(a)netapp.com>, Premanshu Jain <PrJain(a)shastanets.com> >Cc: toasters(a)mathworks.com >Subject: RE: Deleting snapshot >Date: Fri, 8 Sep 2000 11:09:01 -0700 > >NDMP or Veritas Netbackup.
