As far as I understand it, spares are global to the filer. The filer will pick the smallest spare disk that will fit. So unless you have different sized disks on different volumes, you can't make a filer pick one disk over another. As far as fixing your current situation. Config your system now so that it only have 1 spare (it may be that way anyway now), then fail over the spare in the 2nd shelf which is now a data drive for the volume on the first shelf. In my opinion, the best way to do this is to run the 'disk fail' command rather than pull the drive. I think it's cleaner since you won't have to cause your lop to reset. Then you will force your volume to rebuild on the only spare in the system, which not so coincidentally is the one you want. Hope this helps. -- Adam Fox NetApp Professional Services, NC adamfox(a)netapp.com

Ferdie, Grasping at straws... After your toaster comes up, if you enter 'ndmpd status' from the console or admin host, is the status 'ON' then? If so, perhaps it's just timing. Maybe the process to switch on ndmpd hasn't completed yet when the 'ndmpd status' command is read. Try moving the 'ndmpd on' up a few lines in the /etc/rc file - like just before the 'options' calls - to give it a bit more time.

Both of my filers still have the "nfs on" entries and they're working fine, and the entries after that are being executed. -- Mike Sphar - Sr Systems Administrator - Engineering Support Services, BOFH, GWP, MCP, MCP+I, MCSE, BFD -----Original Message----- From: Bruce Sterling Woodcock [mailto:sirbruce@ix.netcom.com] Sent: Friday, July 07, 2000 12:25 PM To: Ferdie Mazon; toasters(a)mathworks.com Subject: Re: NDMPD Is the "nfs on" entry even required anymore? Perhaps it's bailing out of the rc file once it reads that line. Bruce

Fw: NDMPD

If you do the ndmpd status from the console what do you see? There is a quirk that some of the commands issued in rc actually are "finished" after the rc file has completely run. "ndmpd on" is one of these. If you do ndmpd status from the rc file, it will not show that it is on yet because the action hasn't been taken yet. If you see that ndmpd status shows that it is on from the console, I guess that this is what you are seeing.

Doublecheck syntax. Check the entire /etc/rc file. Make sure you don't have a 'ndmpd off' statement someplace after the 'ndmpd on'? > ---------- > From: Ferdie Mazon[SMTP:ferdie@san.rr.com] > Sent: Friday, July 07, 2000 9:07 AM > To: toasters(a)mathworks.com > Subject: NDMPD > > I have a problem with my 760 filer.

I have a problem with my 760 filer. I have the command NDMPD ON in my \etc\rc file, but after I reboot and enter the NDMPD STATUS command, it shows that it was off. Any ideas?
