RE: list of file lock types
by Hawley, Rob 23 Jun '99

23 Jun '99

CIFS locks have two parts; basically "What I want to Do" and "What I am going to prevent others from doing". "What I want to Do" EXEC == read + execute R&W == read + write Read read Write write "What I am going to prevent others from doing". DenyAll exclusive access to file DenyR others cannot read the file, but can write DenyW others cannot write file, but can read DenyN others can read or write the file DOS special compatibility mode for DOS ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ > mailto: hawleyr(a)netapp.com <mailto:hawleyr@netapp.com> US Mail: Network Appliance Inc. > Phone: 408-822-6661 2770 San Tomas Expressway > FAX: 408-822-4521 Santa Clara, CA 95051 -----Original Message----- From: Todd C.

RE: quick question about dumping snapshots
by Melvin, Grant 23 Jun '99

23 Jun '99

Hi Jason, > Hmmm... It seems to be _another_ NDMP bug. The first example I > sent out was generated by running the dump from BudTool via NDMP. This is a bug and its been filed as 15998, the following description will be online tomorrow: TITLE: ndmpd updates the dumpdates table incorrectly when dumping pre-existing snapshots DESCRIPTION: In 5.3, if a dump of a pre-existing snapshot (such as /vol/vol0/.snapshot/hourly.0) is used, the dumpdates table is updated without the ".snapshot/hourly.0". It should only show: /vol/vol0/ 0 Sun Jan 1 00:00:00 1999 However, ndmpd prints out /vol/vol0/.snapshot/hourly.0 0 Sun Jan 1 00:00:00 1999 to the dumpdates table and doesn't modify the dump name to "/vol/vol0/". Sorry for the inconvenience. Cheers, Grant

help on quotas
by Jason Middlebrooks 23 Jun '99

23 Jun '99

I have the following happening. Overview: F630 running OnTap 5.2.2 using CIFS. Two volumnes vol0 and usr. The volume usr contains everybody home directories using cifs.home_dir. I am using a PDC for authentication and I am not using the passwd or group files on the filer. Whats Happening: I have a quota file with the following entries: /vol/usr/usrhomes/cnievesad user@/vol/usr 5G 20K * user@/vol/usr 80M 15K # Default home directory quota /vol/vol0/trafficker tree 5G 15K /vol/vol0/prod tree 2GB 15K /vol/vol0/tsa tree 4GB 50K I have created a new user called msmith and I created the following directory /vol/usr/userhomes/msmith. msmith can map to his directory fine but when I try to create a new folder or file I get the following messages on the filer: Wed Jun 23 14:34:06 GMT [wafl_lopri]: uid 65534: disk quota exceeded on volume usr. The default home directory quota has working in the past at least when I was at OnTap 5.0 Any ideas??? Thanks in advance Jason

For quotas to work properly, you will need to setup and maintain an /etc/passwd and an /etc/group file. We're working on a better document specific to quotas but you can have a quick look at section 5.2 in the following document: http://www.netapp.com/technology/level3/3053.html#Sect5.2 Since quotas are based the UID and since you appear to have a CIFS-only filer, each file's UNIX owner needs to be changed to reflect the correct user name instead of "pcuser." I should have a work-around (the document referenced above) posted on the now site in the next week or so. This should be enough info to get it up and running so you can play around with quotas.

quick question about dumping snapshots
by Jason D. Kelleher 23 Jun '99

23 Jun '99

According to NOW, backing up from a snapshot should place the "real" path in /etc/dumpdates: NOW: Knowledge Base: Data ONTAP: Backup and Recovery: Backing up the Filer to Tape: FAQ_575 Q: How do I dump an already-created snapshot? A: Essentially, you only need to specify the snapshot in the dump path. For example, to dump the hourly.0 snapshot, run: dump 0uf rst0a /vol/vol0/.snapshot/hourly.0/rest_of_path In pre-Data ONTAP 5.1 releases, the /etc/dumpdates table entry will look like: /vol/vol0/.snapshot/hourly.0/rest_of_path 0 Tue Jul 28 20:39:46 1998 In post-5.1 releases, the /etc/dumpdates table entry will look like: /vol/vol0/rest_of_path 0 Tue Jul 28 20:39:46 1998 Note that if you are running a pre-multi-volume release (pre-5.0, in other words), the command will look like: dump 0uf rst0a /.snapshot/hourly.0/rest_of_path I'm running DOT 5.3D9. So am I doing something wrong, or is this just another example of bad documentation from NetApp? blacklodge: ~ [635] # grep test /net/bonnie/vol/fs0/etc/dumpdates /vol/fs0/home/test 1 Mon Jun 21 23:49:09 1999 /vol/fs0/home/test 0 Sat Jun 19 01:29:01 1999 blacklodge: ~ [636] # blacklodge: ~ [636] # blacklodge: ~ [636] # grep test /net/bonnie/vol/fs0/etc/dumpdates /vol/fs0/home/test 1 Mon Jun 21 23:49:09 1999 /vol/fs0/home/test 0 Sat Jun 19 01:29:01 1999 /vol/fs0/.snapshot/hourly.0/home/test 0 Tue Jun 22 08:00:54 1999 blacklodge: ~ [637] #

New 760
by Ron Neuenberger 23 Jun '99

23 Jun '99

If anyone has received a new 760 with the on board fibre channel, make sure your SE had an additional fibre card available as a spare. They are have serious problems with the onboard fibre cards and they don't have any replacement at this time. I have lost 2 now and am waiting for a replacement, meanwhile I am down. Just didn't want this to happen to anyone else.

list of file lock types
by Todd C. Merrill 22 Jun '99

When you do a 'cifs sessions host/user', you get a list like: users shares/files opened machine (user) share Exec-denyW \path R&W-denyAll \path Read-denyAll \path Read-denyN \path Read-denyW \path Write-denyN \path Write-denyW \path Where can I find a comprehensive list of these locks, and what they mean?

netcache on a F500 series
by kelvin 22 Jun '99

22 Jun '99

Dear all, quick question, is there any way to turn off the caching (other than putting a global url stoplist), and just allowing the netapp box to be a dedicated proxy, rather than a caching proxy? swift responses appreciated, many thanks, kelvin tooth

Microsoft Access

22 Jun '99

Retain Until: 07/22/99 Retention Category: G90 - Information and Reports Has anyone had any problems running any Access applications from the NetApps ? Our NT Admin says the apps run fine on NT but when they are on the netapps the lock up (cifs.lock is disabled on the flier --) Are there any NT admins out there experiencing problems that you have not been able to get solutions for ? I feel the Netapps box is great .. but I am slowly becoming the only one at this site that does .... Any information would be helpful. Thanks. Mark Fowle Unix/Metaphase Administration Caterpillar

RE: Windows NT Resource Kit partial contents

One Word: SuperCACLS. We have used the SuperCACLS suite and are extremely happy with it. Not only does it handle the ACL's including forcing ownership changes, it is relatively dirt cheap. www.trustedsystems.com. --Patrick Day Sys Admin Bayer Corp. owner-toasters(a)mathworks.com on 06/21/99 02:10:04 PM To: tkaczma(a)gryf.net @ INTERNET cc: "DDA.RFC-822=toasters(a)mathworks.com/P=Internet/A= /C=us"@X400 Subject: RE: Windows NT Resource Kit partial contents I'm happy you were able to get the NT reskit chown to work. In the spirit of collegiality that so far has pervaded the toasters list, perhaps you could provide an example of how you did it? As far as I can see the "F-ing Manual" (in this case the "F" is richly deserved) says little more about chown other than to state that it is present. And I already gave an example of the "usage" output when no arguments are supplied. Can you give me a pointer to the manual or help file or doc file for this? Ever curious, I downloaded the sources for the NT POSIX commands, and chown.exe just uses the NT POSIX subsystem "chown()" call which takes a 32 bit numeric UID. It is hard to see how that can be used to set the normal NT security information. I am curious how you were able to use that chown to help administer NT boxes. Are you positive it wasn't the MKS toolkit chown? And if you did do it, were you able to set the owner to something other that yourself (i.e. other than a "take ownership")? The sources did solve the mystery of why the "usage" was asking for a group: the chown and chgrp commands use the same executable, and the command looks at the third byte of the command to see if it is "o" (lower case only) to see if it's chown or chgrp. I was typing "f:chown", so the third byte was 'c'. As I said, these NT POSIX commands are pretty crude.
