Re: volume deswizzling

I believe that you can set the wafl priority per volume ------Original Message------ From: Kappe, Michael Sender: owner-toasters(a)mathworks.com To: toasters(a)mathworks.com Sent: Jul 15, 2008 01:19 Subject: volume deswizzling Hello toasters, i have several volume deswizzling processes runing. This is ok, why i copy the volume with snapmirror from one aggr to another. This volume deswizzling processes now running for more than a month. Now the question: When i stop the deswizzling with "wafl scan abort", can i restart them one by one to finish them a bit faster? What is the command? Doing a reboot will restart deswizzling for all volumes. This is not an option ;-) Regards Michael Sent via BlackBerry from T-Mobile

I: Snapmanager Oracle for Windows schedule, how to?
by Milazzo Giacomo 14 Jul '08

14 Jul '08

Nobody knows about SMO? J I can't believe it... Da: owner-toasters(a)mathworks.com [mailto:owner-toasters@mathworks.com] Per conto di Milazzo Giacomo Inviato: mercoledì 9 luglio 2008 10.04 A: NetApp Toasters List Oggetto: Snapmanager Oracle for Windows schedule, how to? Hi all Few days ago I had a chance to install (first time) a Snapmanager for Oracle 2.2 on a Windows 2K3 hosting Oracle 9.2 db instances. No great issues understanting repository and profile concepts or creating backup jobs both full or partial. The issues arrived when, also using the wizard I expected myself to have some items to create a procedure to be scheduled using the Windows scheduler, exactly as done lot of times with SMSQL or SME. I looked for docs or best practice to create some job and to schedule it with no luck. Also reading at command line options it seems quite complex to create and prepare some command rows and to put them in some batch to include in the scheduler. Another strange thing is that once created a backup job with its label you cannot reuse it and it has to be recreated from the beginning. Is there something like that also in SMO? Where is it? Or, alternatively, where I can find docs that can give me some sample to schedule/repeat and so on the job created with SMO? Thanks a lot

CIFS virus scan
by Neis, Mark 14 Jul '08

14 Jul '08

Hi guys, We have been using the Symantec scan engine for NetApp for several years now, but we've met more and more problems as of late. As the next license upgrade will be due in a couple of months, that might be a good opportunity to replace it by a different brand altogether. Hence my question to the list: Which antivirus product do you use and how satisfied are you with it?

multistore/vfiler and aggregate performance
by Roscoe P Coltraine 11 Jul '08

11 Jul '08

hi, i have a customer who will be using multistore/vfilers of random workloads all over nfs. my view for an overall performance perspective is two controllers and multiple raid groups per aggregate evenly spread. ie, if i had 5 FCAL shelves i could create 2 aggregates comprised of 2 16 disk raid groups spread across both controllers and all shelves however their budget can at max allow 4 shelves which would leave one aggregate with 2 raid groups, the other with one and more spares since i would not want to add a half sized raidgroup. the idea being that the vfilers would be split evenly across aggregates to better spread ops load across the drives but realistically will that gain better performance versus a single aggregate with 3 raidgroups spread across both controllers and all drives?

Andreas, > What are your problems? There are some tweaks you need to do then > it should be running of. We've been running it for years. We got two Win2003 servers as AV servers for each NetApp cluster we have. The trouble is not with the filers, but with Symantec. Not too rarely, an unsuccessfull virus update has left a scan engine in a dysfunctional state. As it can still be reached from the filer, it still gets its share of scan requests, which it promptly anwers with a 0x05 error. Moreover we've had some installation problems lately with newer versions of the Symantec scanners (We use standard HP servers, so actually there should be no problem at all). Besides, Symantec's support has grown so bad during the last two or three years, they are absolutely no help at all. Because our license period is about to end, we were thinking about replacing the Symantec scanners by a different brand, that's why I wanted to hear about the experience others have made with the alternatives there are.

Exchange iscsi luns and Snapmanager/SMBR without snapdrive
by Leeds, Daniel 11 Jul '08

11 Jul '08

asking the community while i wait on the official netapp answer. are either Snapmanager for Exchange or the Single Mailbox Restore products absolutely tied to or unable to function completely if snapdrive is not present? in short, this "easy to use" gui tool has wasted enough of our time already and I do not need anything other than the ontap command line and about 15 minutes to provision the proper igroups and luns requested by our Exchange admins and another minute to bring them up via the microsoft iscsi interface format them and put them under the microsoft cluster services control. one last tidbit, although assured this would work fine, any luns that were created from the filer were completely unable to be seen, utilized, or managed via snapdrive. they had to be deleted and provisioned through the snapdrive interface which is not familiar to us and not behaving as shown to us by netapp. even support seemed to be perplexed although it was indicated that perhaps this was due to the servers being 2008 Server and the snapdrive version 6. anyhow im only just clarifying if there is any fundamental dependency between snapdrive and the exchange snapshot tools. :) -- Daniel Leeds Manager, Storage Operations Edmunds, Inc. 1620 26th Street, Suite 400 South Santa Monica, CA 90404 310-309-4999 desk 310-430-0536 cell

ESH's laying around anyone ?
by Robert K. Borowicz 11 Jul '08

11 Jul '08

I have 3 DS14 shelves with LRC's and 72 gig drives in them. I'd like to move them to a FAS920 where I need space and add them to a loop of ESH/ESH2 based shelves. By any chance does anybody have 2 (or even 4) ESH's they are not using ? Would you trade my LRC's (if you need complete HW to surplus) for them ??? I'm in the Austin, Texas area but would pay shipping if need be. Thanks! -Bob

Backup Operators group on filer
by Willeke, Jochen 09 Jul '08

09 Jul '08

Hi toasters, we are currently testing expand boxes to boost our cifs access from remote locations to our centralized Netapp filers. Sadly the expand boxes need to have access to the cifs files in order to replicate them to the remote boxes. When accessing files of course the normal user-rights of the user accessing the files are used. What i did is, i put the service-user into the "Backup Operators" group on the filer, but without success. When i try to replicate the cifs-shares i always get error messages that the user is not allowed to open the files. With the "Administrators" group on the filer it worked. But this is not an option in my eyes, as this right is too high and in case a user removes the "Administrators" group from a folder the expand box will fail to replicate this folder as well. Has anybody a good idea or even deployed expand boxes for cifs-acceleration with netapp?
