Re: NuView vs Rainfinity

Thanks for the nice words. StorageX and VFM are functionally identical. One is sold by Netapp (VFM) and the other by NuView. NFS support was added in version 5.5.

I have had StorageX in and running on Eval - and to be honest, if I had enough budget (Well a budget of greater than zero) to play with would have gone with it for the Global Name Space virtualisation within the windows environment we were running. The only short coming it had at the time was no NFS. I was told that this was on the roadmap - not sure if it is here yet ?

DS4000 management protocol analyzer
by Ryan 03 Nov '05

03 Nov '05

Dswrench.com announces a new debugging tool for the "DS4000 storage server (Engenio based disk storage array)." We are proud to introduce the DS4000 Management Protocol Analyzer, or DSMPA. DSMPA is freeware built by engineers for engineers, so we encourage you to use often and spread the word! What it does: DSPMA captures management network traffic between SANtricity or other management software and disk storage arrays. It assembles network packets into DS4000 management objects. The captured objects can be viewed graphically and played back. It is a powerful tool for DS4000 storage server support center, storage administrators, storage management software developers and quality assurance engineers. To view sample shots of DSMPA capabilities, click the following links: -To access the User guide, please click http://www.dswrench.com/documents/dsmpa.pdf. -To access the DSMPA main screen, please click http://www.dswrench.com/documents/CaptureAndView.html -DSMPA can save a communication session to html file. To view a sample session output, please click http://www.dswrench.com/documents/session_sample.html. -DSMPA also captures SANtricity generated network traffic. This page (http://www.dswrench.com/documents/snmp_sample.html) shows captured SNMP trap fired by the SANtricity management software. How to get it: DSMPA is now available for free download from http://www.dswrench.com For more information, please visit http://www.dswrench.com. Thank you for taking a few minutes to improve the operation of your DS4000 storage server. Please visit dswrench.com often for updates and new software. Use often and spread the word!

Auto Creation of Windows Share
by Scott, Tom E 02 Nov '05

02 Nov '05

List, I think I lost the part of my mind that this information stored in it. But what is the syntax, from a Win2k3 server, to create a Windows share on a F810 filer. Basically I want to automate the creation of Users to include their home directory on the file. I can easily automate creating the directory on the filer, but what about the share? Currently we do it via Filer view or use Manage from My Computer. Thanks in advance.

NTFS Permissions Collection and Reporting Tool
by Crawford, Mark (CBC) 02 Nov '05

02 Nov '05

Hello, Is anyone aware of a product that will collect and report on NTFS permissions? Our company uses a product known as Aelita by Quest Software. When we implemented our NetApp filers, Aelita could no longer collect and report on the NTFS permissions of the CIFS shares. We had developed an in-house solution as temporary stop-gap. But that has outlived its potential. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Can CIFS set ctime to arbitrary value?
by Steve Losen 01 Nov '05

01 Nov '05

We have a FAS3050 CF pair for home directory access via both NFS and CIFS. We use unix style file security throughout. We are running DOT 7.0.1R1. We have discovered a directory with files apparently created via CIFS where the ctimes are almost two months in the future (Dec 30, 2005). I am pretty sure that there is no way to muck with ctime via NFS. You can only set atime and mtime to arbitrary values and I think that the filer sets ctime based on its own clock. Does CIFS work differently? Can you set ctime to something arbitrary with CIFS? Is there an option to prevent this? We have some home grown backup software that access the filers via NFS that uses mtime and ctime to decide what files need to be backed up. If CIFS can set ctime arbitrarily, then our incremental dumps may be skipping files that should really be backed up.

RE: NetApp 3050 vs Dell 6650
by Carter K. George 29 Oct '05

29 Oct '05

I am sure the FAS 3050 is a fine solution and yes, FlexVols are cool, but NFS on Linux is nowhere near as bad as you make it out to be. On current distributions (SuSE SLES9 - which has the better Linux NFS - and RHEL) both UDP and TCP are supported and work just fine. There was some trouble with older 2.4 Linux kernels with TCP, but that's long since fixed. rsize and wsize up to 32768 is also supported on both UDP and TCP, at least on SuSE Linux. And Jumbo frames work just fine on Linux NFS, as some of our benchmarks show (we have now gotten over 2,000 Megabytes (not Megabits) per second over NFS from a single Linux file system, read and write, using iozone). That's using a cluster file system to mount and export the same file system from multiple Linux nodes concurrently. With jumbo frames and two standard GigE ports, you get about 225 MB/sec per node. Need more bandwidth to/from a given file or file system? Just add more nodes. It is true that the NFSv4 server is not entirely mainstream on Linux yet. The NFSv4 client and server are both being developed at the University of Michigan, Center for Information Technology Integration, with funding from Network Appliance, PolyServe, and IBM. You can track the progress here: http://www.citi.umich.edu/projects/nfsv4/ While v4 might not be a standard part of the enterprise distributions yet, this code runs, it passes interoperability tests with other NFSv4 implementations at the NFSv4 Bakeathons, and you can download it and run it for free on any Linux server with a suitable kernel. It may well be behind the NetApp implementation, but it is not in its infancy and in fact, NetApps has been very generous with both people and money in supporting the development and testing of NFS v4 on Linux. ckg -----Original Message----- From: owner-toasters(a)mathworks.com [mailto:owner-toasters@mathworks.com] On Behalf Of Tim Sent: Friday, October 28, 2005 4:08 PM To: Blake Golliher Cc: ChazzCRH; toasters(a)mathworks.com Subject: Re: NetApp 3050 vs Dell 6650 From a performance and stability standpoint, as I recall, the RHEL3 NFS server only supports NFS over UDP reliably and only with a max rsize/wsize of 8192. A Filer does UDP and TCP(the preferred method) and supports rsize & wsize of 32768, and in some cases 65536 over TCP. Couple that with JUMBO frames if your entrire infrastructure is GigE and I would suspect it would outperform hands down. Heck probably without JUMBO frames it would still be better. The NFS v4 server on RHEL 3/4 is still in its' infancy (experimental?) compared to NetApp. The RHEL3/4 NFS client rocks though. It does support NFS v3/4 given your version of RHEL supports it.
