UNIX volume and root
by Uros Lampret 13 Jun '00

13 Jun '00

Hi! Another question. I have F740 with single CIFS volume. (I'm an NT person) Now I'll have to add 2 UINIX volumes. I'll substitute two UNIX servers with it. I have some security considerations. The two UNIX servers were administrated by two admins. Is it possible to have diferent root passwords for this two volumes? Uros Lampret Our Space d.o.o.

Re: Data OnTap 5.3.5P2 and NDMP Backups
by Moshe Linzer 13 Jun '00

Thanks for confirming this, Greg. I have seen this problem with 5.3.5P2 and Budtool 4.6.1a. I had downgraded to 5.3.5 to continue backing up. Now I was informed that 5.3.5 is buggy, and have gone to 5.3.5R2P2. Initial testing indicates that NDMP is working with Budtool 4.6.1a. We'll know for sure after the weekend...

Help With Firmware Upgrades.
by Lobban, Robert W SSI-ISEP-3 13 Jun '00

13 Jun '00

I am looking for some help with Disk firmware upgrades. Specifically do the updated .LOD files for Disk Firmware Upgrades come with the Filer Firmware Upgrades or do they need to be downloaded from the now site? If they do need downloaded from the now site, can you point me in the right direction as I can't seem to find them. We also plan to upgrade the version of Ontap we are using and I presume that I need to perform the Disk firmware updates first and then the Filer Firmware upgrades before attempting the Ontap upgrade?. Any help would be appreciated as we are a fairly new Toaster site performing our first complete upgrade. Regards Robert Lobban Shell Services International Ltd, Northern Area Office Robert.W.Lobban(a)IS.Shell.Com
