Try NuView's File Lifecycle Manager. I've implemented several times. It does what you are looking for. -----Original Message----- From: owner-toasters(a)mathworks.com [mailto:owner-toasters@mathworks.com] On Behalf Of Holland, William L Sent: Tuesday, March 22, 2005 12:57 PM To: 'toasters(a)mathworks.com' Subject: HSM and NetApp What would you recommend for an HSM product for use with NetApp? I am interested in a product that will periodically scan my file systems on my filers and then, based on criteria that I establish, move those files to an R200. I would like for it to leave a link in place of the original file so that it can be retrieved should it be needed. I would like to be able to further refine the management such that once a file has been moved to the R200 for some period of time let me know to either archive it to tape/DVD/etc and then delete it from the R200 and remove the links. ***************************************************************************************************** If you have received this email in error please notify the the system manager or the sender immediately and do not disclosed the to anyone or make copies. ** eSafe scanned this email for viruses, vandals or malicious content ** ** To find out eSafe(TM) and other Aladdin Security Products, contact AMC Corporation at (212) 736-0111 *****************************************************************************************************

possible space guarantee "bug" ?
by Charles Bartels 22 Mar '05

22 Mar '05

I've been shuffling around my volumes, migrating to flexible volumes, and noticed an interesting possible bug. I created about a dozen volumes within a large aggregate; using all the space available. All were create with the default space guarantee setting of "volume". As I understand things, this effectively means the space is reserved for each volume (i.e. one volume can't use up space in another volume.) When I rebooted my filer this morning I noticed the warning: [wafl.vol.guarantee.fail:error]: Space for volume vol_test is NOT guaranteed and the space guarantee setting showed up as "volume(disabled)" As soon as I shrunk one of the volumes a bit the following message appeared in the log: [wafl.vol.add.spcGuar:info]: Space for volume vol_test is guaranteed. This seems to imply that one should be very careful whenever you create or increase the size of a flexible volume. You can inadvertently disable the space guarantee on another volume. This *may* be the expected way 7.0 works; I don't know. I'm still in the process of getting the hang of this latest release. But it did seem strange. -C.

Exchange and iSCSI
by Holland, William L 21 Mar '05

21 Mar '05

Is SnapDrive and SnapManager for Exchange really needed to run Exchange with databases on a filer using iSCSI? Seems to me that it would be possible to use MS's iSCSI initiator then manually create the iSCSI Groups and LUNs where the databases and logs will be stored then use scripts to perform routine maintenance and backups. Anyone out there using Exchange and iSCSI without SnapDrive and SnapManager for Exchange?

RE: df size reporting differences in ONTAP 7.0

Is it possible that the order the quotas are defined in the quota file are causing this different behavior? -----Original Message----- From: Adam McDougall [mailto:mcdouga9@egr.msu.edu] Sent: Monday, March 21, 2005 11:18 AM To: Charles Bartels Cc: toasters(a)mathworks.com Subject: Re: df size reporting differences in ONTAP 7.0 On Wed, Mar 16, 2005 at 10:51:54AM -0800, Charles Bartels wrote: > I may be confused but it sounds like you are describing the > old behavior, which 6.5.3 exhibits. Yes. But certain configurations of 7.0 do *not* have that problem. I have user quotas under a qtree in a traditional volume that show the "correct" answer when the user runs "df", meaning the user sees their partition sized to their quota. > All in all, I was alerted today that a Bug ID 154530 was created > and will be "fixed" in a future release. I took a look at that bug on the NOW site and it was disappointingly vague. It has a title, and nothing else. -C. It is publicly available now: 154530 Title 'df' reports size based on all quotas (including user/group) over NFS in a qtree Duplicate of Bug Severity 3 - Serious inconvenience Bug Status Not Fixed Product Data ONTAP Bug Type WAFL Description Formatted In releases prior to 7.0, running the 'df' command on an NFS mount of an exported qtree shows the export size as the smaller of the volume size or the qtree quota, if one exists. In 7.0, this behavior was inadvertently changed to return the size as the minimum of the volume size or any applicable quota, including user and group quotas for the user running 'df' in addition to any qtree quota.

df size reporting differences in ONTAP 7.0
by Adam McDougall 19 Mar '05

19 Mar '05

This sunday I upgraded our production FAS940 from 6.5.3 to 7.0 and noticed NFS clients are reporting the user or group quota as the volume size and free space when running df, when 6.5.3 and earlier used to report the qtree quota. I was suprised by this change and so far have been told by NetApp that it is a bug fix, not a bug. Just wanted to send a heads up to the list to let people know, and wondering if anyone else was affected negatively by this. I like part of the idea of the change but was not expecting it at all. Didn't see it in docs. Its interesting but inappropriate for some of our volumes the way we have quotas setup, and it prevents non-admins from seeing if the volume or qtree is nearing full.

RE: Inconsistent volume
by McLoughlin, John 19 Mar '05

Before doing what I list below, I would do a Ctrl-C to get into special boot options, then do a maintenance boot and do an environment status chassis -- Check on your batteries and battery temp. I believe the course of action here is to run a Ctrl-C for special boot options. When given the prompt 1-5, do not choose any. Instead, type: WAFL_check -z -- It'll ask which volumes you want to WAFL_check. Just do vol0. Follow the prompts from there. Cross your fingers. And hope. :) Thanks, John. -----Original Message----- From: k+toasters(a)ivsnet.net [mailto:k+toasters@ivsnet.net] Sent: Saturday, March 19, 2005 4:28 AM To: toasters(a)mathworks.com Subject: Inconsistent volume Hey guys, I ran into a problem just now with an inconsistent volume. I believe it was due to the nvram batteries not being in full contact on the nvram card. I reset the batteries and made sure there was contact, I booted up, got a 'dirty shutdown' message and a not about possible data loss. Now, Im stuck at this: rc:ALERT]: Volume vol0 is inconsistent. Please contact. PANIC: Root volume vol0 cannot be mounted. Please run WAFL_check in process rc5 So, what should my next course of action be? Thanks
