DataOntap upgrade practice
by Derek Lai 12 Oct '04

12 Oct '04

One of the thing I liked alot about DataOntap upgrade used to be that you can do all your prep work, copy the files, run download and then schedule a down time sometime later to finish the upgrade. I just upgraded from 6.4.2P6 to 6.4.4R1 this Sun. I had opened a case to talk to a support engineer since the 6.4.4 upgrade document was kind of confusing. Then I told him that I was going to do the copy and download on Friday and then reboot on the scheduled down-time we had on Sun. The support engineer told me that this is no longer recommended - there are certain operations that might go to disk and the filer might panick. I ended up taking his advice, only to find out during the maintenance down-time we had that the upgrade had problem. The 32MB PCMCIA card's service diagnostic partition did not have enough space and filer gave very misleading info to suggest that the upgrade had failed. All this when you are "on the clock"... Ugh... Is this claim from the TSE correct? That there are some operations that might panick the filer if you do the download but did not reboot? When did this go into DataOntap? What operations will cause these problems? It is a very useful feature to have the ability to do the upgrade before-hand instead of having to do everything once the system is down and you are on the clock and everyone is breathing down your neck!

FC8 (or FC7) Comm ports
by Steve Traugott 09 Oct '04

09 Oct '04

Hi All! Does anyone know anything about the pinout or protocol of the "Comm 1" and "Comm 2" ports on the back on an FC8? (I'm assuming an FC7 has these too.) Or low-level technical documentation for the module these ports are part of? (This module is the one with the two Comm ports, an I2C port, alarm reset button, and fanfail and other LED's.) I have an FC8, will be getting more, plan to use them as JBODs without a filer head; so far this has been working out quite well. Considering the great utility and low street price of these older components, I'm actually surprised I haven't located any "Netapp Hackers" web site yet -- this list is the closest I've found. So far, the only thing I've been able to get these ports to do is fault the module (LED's all light up, alarm sounds, disk I/O still chugging away with no errors) by sending a Break on Comm 1. (Using a null modem cable connected to a linux laptop serial port running minicom; N81, baud rate doesn't seem to matter 'cause nothing ever comes back). Steve -- Stephen G.

Cyclades Tricks
by Robert Borowicz 08 Oct '04

08 Oct '04

OK I went out and got myself a couple of Cyclades Terminal servers (asc32's) and love them. But I haven't figured out how to send a "Stop A" or "L1 A" on the Suns to them. Has anybody here got some tricks to do that on your Cyclades? I wrote their support about "ctl-alt-del" and they summarily told me it was NOT possible on a serial device. Thanks -Bob
