You should talk to NetApp support if you are having a problem with this. However, there is nothing to do on the filer. If the autoloader is correctly configured, then using the urst0a device name will cause autoloading to occur. See the manpage for na_tape.4 for more detail.

Hi All, We have a Filer 720 with two shelves. We are having a DLT 7000 Autoloader ( Dell Powervault 120T ) for the backup of the filer. Please let me know how to enable the autoloading option 'ON' on the filer. regards Bhaskar G Systems Engineer, Philips Semiconductors, #3, Sterling Square,Madras Bank Road, Off St Mark's Road,BANGALORE-560 001.

Can you run "cifs stat" on your filer and send me the output? I'm interested in knowing what your OpLkBkNoBreakAck statistic is. You may be suffering from non-responsive oplock breaks. If you disable oplocks (set the cifs.oplocks.enable option off) and the problem goes away, then that's almost certainly the problem. I suspect a newer version of Data ONTAP will help a lot. In more recent versions there is a knob for working around the non-responsive oplock break problem (a very irritating bug in the Microsoft client). Matt

Problems with MS Excel and Oplocks?
by Timothy Demarest 18 Apr '00

18 Apr '00

I've seen a strange problem over the past few days. We have MS Windows 9x/NT users running Excel 97 and Excel 2000. Dozens of minutes, or even hours, after a person stops editing the file (Save & Quit), you can't access the file via NFS or CIFS. CIFS apps complain the file is in use. NFS clients complain with "permission denied". Doing a truss of a chmod or rm on the file shows ERR#13 - EACCES. The only way to "unlock" the file is to have the CIFS user logoff of the client, or to terminate the CIFS session of the Filer. The user clearly does not have any apps open on the CIFS client. This sounds suspiciously like Windows 9x/NT and Excel is doing something weird to keep the lock open. Has anyone seen this with Excel, and how did they resolve it?

Large vs Small Backups
by Moshe Linzer 18 Apr '00

18 Apr '00

Hi, We are using Budtool 4.6.1a to backup an F760 and an F630 to a Breece Hill Q2.15 jukebox with 2 DLT7000 drives. We backup each qtree as a separate request in budtool. We started getting poor performance on the smaller qtrees, and started using the hidden ndmpd logical_find command described in Bug 12424. We recently upgraded to 5.3.5P2, and I found that this option is causing ndmp connection problems between Budtool and the filer. As a result, I have backed off to 5.3.5, where this option works without a problem. My question: How best to backup a 330GB volume with many small qtrees? Should we just backup the entire volume as one request, or continue to backup each qtree individually? Are there any problems with backing up the entire volume at once? This will allow me to dump (no pun intended) the problematic ndmpd logical_find option, as well improve general dump performance.

I currently have this "on." If I turn this off, what will happen to V3 clients that currently have mounts to the filer? Put another way, is this option immediate, or does it only take affect on new mounts or a reboot of the filer? Until next time...

The command "btpasswd -p -u root" should allow you to change this for all your NDMP aware NetApps. You could also use "btpasswd -p -u root -h <hostname>" to change it on a per-host basis if they are different. Be sure you know what you're doing before you change the password though.

NDMP backups stopped after network upgrade
by Rainchik, Aleksandr (MED, Non GE) 18 Apr '00

18 Apr '00

Hello, We are using Budtool 4.6.1 to backup three NetApps F740 (Ontap 5.2.1P2D10). After our network has been down completely for about 15 minutes, we can't do backups any more... NDMP authorization failure for user root. Look at the end of this message for what we have in NetApp log files. So, a) ndmpd is running on NetApp. b) I can telnet, or rsh to NetApp as user root just fine. c) ndmp_hostinfo is also working perfect and I can telnet to port 10000 on NetApp. But, when I connect there, I get 5-6 garbage letters only. If I telnet to port 10000 to NetApp in another department, with newer Ontap, I get the same garbage _and_ the string "Connection successful". Does it make any sense to NDMP gurus? :) d) we've tried rebooting one NetApp and that didn't help. e) we've tried btpasswd to create a new password for user root. Didn't help f) NIS is fine. I can do ypwhich or ypcat on filer... Any ideas? Is there any way to run ndmpd in "verbose" or "debug" mode?

Just make sure that the destination fiber-based volume is at least as large as the original SCSI volume. You vol copy the data over. Set the new volume to be the root volume. Then you can destroy the SCSI volume. I'd probably type download, just to be safe. Then I'd reboot...the filer won't actually destroy the old vol0 and start using the new volume until you actually reboot. Then if you want to keep the vol0 name, you can rename the new root volume. This has worked for many customers that I've talked to. Has anyone seen differently? -- Adam Fox NetApp Professional Services, NC adamfox(a)netapp.com

firmware for fibre challe disks
by Mathew Anderson 17 Apr '00

17 Apr '00

Hello - From my previous post (thanks for the answers..It should help), it was sugested that I upgrade my 720 to a later version of ontap (currently 5.2.1) I was going to try the 5.3.4.R3, but the minumus firmware revision for the fibre channel disk is FB59 (for ST1917FC disks, I am at FB55). I am unable to find the location of the fibre channel firmware on the NOW site. Any pointers?
