Replication
by vance＠corp.theglobe.com 29 May '98

29 May '98

We would like to use some form of replication to mirror our NetApp 230 to another NetApp in a remote location. Has anyone on the list tried to do this before? Any suggestions on how to tackle this problem? Thanks in advance for any help you can provide- Vance BTW - If it matters at all, we are looking to replicate ~2M files totaling about 50GB. The WAN link would be fairly fast (> 45Mb). ......................... ........... Vance Huntley .. Director of Technology ............

User Quota Checking
by Mike Mueller 25 May '98

25 May '98

We've just turned on user quotas and I am trying to figure out a way to allow users to check their current disk usage and quota limit. Since the filer is running rquotad, this would seem to be the way to go. But alas, the filer rquotad apparently wants quota [path] instead of quota [uid], just like its command line quota report. It returns "NO QUOTA" when queried via a client's quota command. Has anyone figured out a way to allow a general user to check their disk usage and quota limits? It looks like there may be a way through the MIB, but how could this be easily made into a command line script that a user could run? Better yet, is there a way to allow the user to interact with the rquotad deamon that is already running on the filer to get their quota report? If not, why is it running? Thanks for your insight! -- Mike

command reference guide discontinued in 5.x
by Tom Yates 22 May '98

22 May '98

here's a little someting to take our minds off how nice NTP support would be... would anyone from netapp care to comment on the suggestion that the command reference guide has been discontinued in 5.x? would anyone else care to comment on whether they use the command reference guide? perhaps some might care to say that it's about twice as useful as the system administrators' guide, despite weighing half as much? i certainly think so. i'd even pay for it. i'd think it was a bit rich, given the price of the toaster, but i'd shell out folding money for it. it's just too useful. any chance we could have it back?

Re: don't run an F630 with the case open

Credit to our SE's for pointing this one out to us when they installed our F630's. I can see why this would drive you up the wall trying to diagnose a fail-to-boot when no-one's pointed out the change.

Although some NetApp filers *can* be operated with the case open, it is not a good idea to run any of these machines with the box open. This is because an open cabinet changes the airflow within the filer and often results in reduced airflow to some devices within the box, allowing them to overheat. And that means increased failures. Please, close them up! rgl

Ouch! That's got to hurt. I am sure Rich was glad he could fix your problem. For the F200/F300 and F500 series filers these filers can run with the case open. As you found out the F630 can't.

don't run an F630 with the case open
by Tom Yates 21 May '98

21 May '98

d'oh of the day contest entry, just fyi: you can run an F330 with the case open, or at least ajar. i often do after i've done work, before i seal the case down tight, to make sure that it boots and i'm not going to have to undo everything to fix it. well, don't try the same trick with an F630; it doesn't work. thanks to rich ciammaichella at netapp for not roasting me when we discovered that this was a major part of my F630 booting problem. for those who haven't looked closely inside an F630, there are no longer cables going from the board to the front-of-case displays; there are now fixed connectors that seat when the board tray is slid fully home. this may be true for other high-end models, too - i don't know.

NTP or rdate.....
by gordon＠nabaus.com.au 20 May '98

20 May '98

Yes, put me on the voting list too. Netapp folk have been misteriously quiet regarding this thread. We know nearly ALL of the netapp dudes read from this list, so how about a response from Netapp? What is Netapps official position regarding NTP? That's my 2cents worth. The check is in the mail.... .... Gordon. Gordon Maudsley, Unix and Network dude, National Australia Bank.
