Aggregates on Multistore
by Cristian Rojas 18 May '08

18 May '08

Hi guys, wondering if its ok to have 2 storage groups on 2 separate aggregates for Exchange, 1 would be dedicated to mailboxes and the other one to logs. Im not sure if this would work on a vfiler, I think ive heard all the resources of the vfiler need to be part of the same aggr. Anyone doing anything like this? Thanks Cris

Nearstore option usage?
by Adam McDougall 18 May '08

18 May '08

So we have some FAS3040 and a nearstore license and I'd like to figure out how I can take advantage of it. It was required for A-SIS but I'd like to look into identifying 'old' data in my largest volume and segregating it off of fibre channel disks. What is required and how can I get started? It seems hard to find info on NOW about this. The closest thing so far was the following document which hints strongly at the capability but not how. Any tips? Thanks. http://now.netapp.com/NOW/products/NearStore_option/

Oddball SnapMirror issue
by Raj Patel 16 May '08

16 May '08

We've got two FAS 270's in different cities. They're connected by a 10mb pipe with routers (running ipsec) & firewalls (checkpoint splat) seperating each datacenter. The primary san is fine and runs all our prod volumes (7.0.5) which are mirrored to our secondary san (7.0.6). Recently I had to recreate the mirror relationship for some volumes as they'd fallen far out of sync due to some firewall work. What I am seeing is one volume is syncing fine, one has a small lag and two are stuck with a status of 'Pending with restart checkpoint' after I re-initialised the transfer. snapmirror status -l shows this for one of the two that just don't get properly initialised Source: 10.1.45.7:sqlprod01 Destination: adcsan1:sqlprod01_mirror Status: Pending with restart checkpoint Progress: 38376 KB State: Unknown Lag: - Mirror Timestamp: - Base Snapshot: - Current Transfer Type: Retry Current Transfer Error: volume is not online; cannot execute operation Contents: - Last Transfer Type: - Last Transfer Size: - Last Transfer Duration: - Last Transfer From: - Our firewalls rules have been relaxed to allow free-flow between these devices (instead of just the SnapMirror ports) and the routers and circuit haven't changed at all between it working fine and not working now. The volume that is mirroring OK seems fine and still syncs fine - granted the updates are small whereas the three non-working volumes have to sync quite a lot of data. I've tried deleting the mirrored volumes, recreating them, setting up the mirror relationship again (with a variety of scheduling and bandwidth throttling options) and doing a destination SAN reboot. What are the best options to troubleshoot this or insuring a successful mirror ? Has anyone had issues with dropped or stalled SnapMirror baseline transfers via an IPSec tunnel or Firewall ? Thanks in advance, Raj. PS As an addendum it looks like it starts a transfer, stalls and from then on subsequent mirrors fail because its not online (ie the initialisation fails ?) What I don't understand is why it just can't carry on with the initialisation regardless of the interruption by resuming the mirror operation ?

R: MSCS and snapmirror question
by Milazzo Giacomo 16 May '08

Of course but that guy said he's migrating on the same filer to another aggregate. ________________________________ Da: Patrick van Helden [mailto:pvh@databasement.eu] Inviato: ven 16/05/2008 19.12 A: Milazzo Giacomo; Klise, Steve; toasters(a)mathworks.com Oggetto: RE: MSCS and snapmirror question Guys, Please be aware that MSCS will keep track of the lun serials.

And you don't need to update your mirror. If you simply power off you clusters no i/o activity will be performer on LUNs.

The LUNS are attached to print clusters, 2 node and 3 node clusters (WIndows 2003 sp2 x86 etc). I have snapmirrored the volumes. If I stop the cluster service on the windows boxes, do a snapmirror update, the disconnected the quorum and other resource disks, do a snapmirror update, release the snapmirror, remove and replace the disks with snapdrive with the same disk letters. fire up the cluster service.. Will that work? has anyone done that before? Any gotchas? Any help is greatly appreciate!

VIF weirdness
by Page, Jeremy 16 May '08

16 May '08

I am having a great deal of difficulty getting my filer's 10g interfaces connected to a pair of 3750E switches I am trying to use for my storage network's backbone. I can inconsistently ping other objects on the network (there really is nothing there yet, we are just getting started, but I do have a host and an RLM card just for troubleshooting purposes), but they cannot ping each other. From a remote host (172.1.2.5) I can ping everything but array1.

RE: VIF weirdness
by Page, Jeremy 15 May '08

15 May '08

They are 10 gig cards, they are only in a VIF with themselves (no other cards). It's a 3070 with 2 copper 100/1000 2 FC gig and 2 FC 10g connections. The 2 1000 are on our production network as lan0 VIF for CIFS/NFS, the fibre gig is not used and the two 10g FC are VIF tgif on the storage only network (no routing etc, private for storage devices and the hosts using them only). They are plugged into stacked 3750e boxes, I tried putting them on the same switch just to make sure it was not a stacking thing with no real change. The oddness is that occasionally a single packet will get through, and if I bring the interfaces up and down it may change who can get to what. ________________________________ From: Webster, Stetson [mailto:Stetson.Webster@netapp.com] Sent: Thursday, May 15, 2008 2:13 PM To: Page, Jeremy; toasters(a)mathworks.com Subject: RE: VIF weirdness Are these 10g TOE cards?

Most permissive permission always applies. So here, client will get RW from the "rw=-123.123.4.0/24" statement. ro will be dropped as client gets most permissive permission when conflict. Try it!
