NDMP Questions
by jmiddlebrooks＠datalink.com 26 Jul '00

26 Jul '00

If anybody has dug deep into using Veritas Netbackup NDMP to backup the filer. 1) Since NDMP uses dump, if you loose tape 5 of 8 does that mean you loose the entire backup / restore? 2) Can you restore file X without spanning all tapes that are part of the dump? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

RE: tools section of NOW (need NT ACL migrate tool)

Hi All, We already updated Todd but I wanted to make sure to send this out to everyone: We've moved all the 'Tools & Utilities' over to the main download page based upon customer feedback that all downloads should be in one consolidated section on the NOW site. Go to the main download page (http://now.netapp.com/NOW/cgi-bin/software/) Towards the top of the page, in the 'Software Tools' section, you'll see the 'Tools & Utilities' link. We have also added in 'quick links' to RAWRITE, MRTG etc. so you can get to them directly from the software download page. (If you click on the 'Tools & Utilities' page, you'll find a consolidated list of all our scripts and tools. We also added columns which indicate if they are 'supported', 'recommended', etc.) Email me directly if you have any problems finding what you are looking for!

RE: Monitoring other stuff with MRTG

This is a bit of a hack, but until that data is available through SNMP, could you not write some script that uses rsh to the netapp to run the sysstat command, and then parse the output? -- Mike Sphar - Sr Systems Administrator - Engineering Support Services, BOFH, GWP, MCP, MCP+I, MCSE, BFD -----Original Message----- From: Henrique Pantarotto [mailto:pantarotto@terra.com.br] Sent: Tuesday, July 25, 2000 5:17 PM To: Mike Smith Cc: toasters(a)mathworks.com Subject: RE: Monitoring other stuff with MRTG Hello Mike, perhaps I wasn't clear. I am familiar with the MIB file available at now.netapp.com. But I didn't find the OIDs to monitor the "cache age" and "disk read/write kb/s" variables (like the ones reported using the sysstat command). I also couldn't find them at the traps.dat file that you suggested. I was wondering if anyone here is monitoring this kind of info. Perhaps if it's not in those files, it's not possible to monitor them...?

To preserve ACLs when copying you can just use scopy.exe. It comes with the NT resource kit. Alternatively you can use a backup/restore process. There are also some very nice third party migration tools, such as SecureCopy from smallwonders.com, which copy files+ACLs, shares, local groups, etc. between servers.

I believe every CIFS statistic that we keep is in MIB 1.2, even the propeller-head stuff IIRC, and most of them are in the MIB that ships with 5.3.x. Do an snmpwalk of .1.3.6.1.4.1.789.1.7 and you'll see everything that's there. There only seem to be two MIB entries for http running on a filer in MIB 1.2. They report the low and high 32 bits of a 64 bit quantity representing the total number of http operations. Please send mail to me directly regarding which other statistics would be desirable, and I'll file an RFE. Alan =============================================================== Alan G.

No, there isn't really any way to derive these values from other values in the MIB. The missing sysstat values (cache age, disk read/write bytes, and tape read/write bytes) are supported in MIB version 1.2 which ships with the next major release of ONTAP. - Brian -- Brian Hackworth hackwort(a)netapp.com Network Appliance 408.822.6654 Sunnyvale, CA USA

Dear fellas, I was recently involved in the moving of a netapp filer from a hosting facility to our office building, and during transportation, I lost the terminator that plugs into the port that looks like a serial-port on the back of the disk shelf. That port is labeled "output/terminator" on the back of disk shelf (I assume the casing actually housing the disks is called the disk shelf?) Where can I find a replacement for this terminator? Would a standard retail store carry something like this? If so, which ones? Any help appreciated. I've not tried running the filer without that terminator, does anyone know what would happen if I did? Do I stand to lose data?

Great, I have been waiting for these values for some time. Do you also intend to include CIFS and HTTPD stats in MIB 1.2? If not, is there a hope they will be in the MIB in the future? Thanks.
