formula for calculating the max number of disks on a loop without losing performance
by Derek Lai 17 May '04

17 May '04

We currently have a FAS940C cluster. Each of the FAS940 has 2 DS14 shelves of 36 GB drives and 1 DS14 shelf of 72 GB drives (a total of 6 shelves). Each of the FAS940 has only 1 FC dual-channel Host Adapter: slot 4: FC Host Adapter 4a (Dual-channel, QLogic 2312 rev. 2, 64-bit, L-port, <UP>) We are trying to isolate some performance problem we are encourtering. How do we find out if the host adapter is the bottleneck? Does anyone have a formula for calculating how many drives can be put on a single loop without losing performance. Thanks. Derek

Hello everyone, I need help with implementing SCSI in NDMP for a NetApp filer. Anyone familiar with SCSI development will know the elements and the address assignnments of to those elements by CDB's sent to the SCSI device. I have used MODE_SENSE and READ_ELEMENT_STATUS in order to do that. But, i believe i am not unpacking the reply correctly to assign addresses to the elements. Its because when i send the POSITION_TO_ELEMENT or MOVE_MEDIUM, i use those elements addresses (Transport element, Data Transfer element and Storage element) and i get sense key indicating that the CDB was incorrect. Need help urgently. I request all the SCSI experts to reply to this. Thanks in advance, Sonia. --------------------------------- Do you Yahoo!? SBC Yahoo! - Internet access at a great low price.

Data ONTAP 6.1.3 running on an F520
by Joe C Ropar 14 May '04

14 May '04

Greetings Toaster Fans, Has anyone out there successfully run ONTAP 6.1.3 or later on an F520 running both CIFS and NFS? We are planning on migrating the data to an R150 later this year but are doing an AD migration which is not supported under 5.3.7R3 and are looking for a quick fix. We have done some preliminary testing with a spare head and 6.1.3 installed without a hitch. In addition we have created some CIFS share which are working correctly. Regards, Joseph C. Ropar Unix Systems Administrator Raytheon Systems Company cell (214) 869-7901 desk (972) 952-4306 e-mail jropar(a)raytheon.com

The Peribit compression boxes are excellent.

If you own both ends and its Cisco gear, check out AIM-COMPR's -- they'll compress at the PPP/HDLC level minimal impact on latency and without putting another device in-line. The AIM-COMPR2 for the original 2600 series will do 8mb/s and you can pick up a pair for <$500 on ebay. ************** IMPORTANT MESSAGE ************** This e-mail message is intended only for the addressee(s) and contains information which may be confidential.

RE: QTree Size limits
by Jack Lyons 12 May '04

12 May '04

Wow another person using Macs! I will have to start looking at DFS more closely. We are stuck at 10.2.8 until we get rid of Outlook 2001:Mac which bombs all the time under 10.3 When you say 10.3 is better...is that the native smb support gets better or is there something else. I know that 10.2.6 and 10.2.8 built-in SMB performance was significantly less than with Dave ...something like 20-30% less. We are run 10.2.8 on Dual G5's with the Dave 5.0 client and we are getting an average of 55MB/s over GigE We will probably be moving to First Class at beginning of the July which will eliminate our last non OSX native application! -----Original Message----- From: jeff.mery(a)ni.com [mailto:jeff.mery@ni.com] Sent: Wednesday, May 12, 2004 3:08 PM To: toasters(a)mathworks.com Subject: RE: QTree Size limits IIRC...Dave and SMB handle DFS just fine. DFS virtualizes the location of the data, but still presents it the same way as a regular share. In fact, if you look at the disk location of the DFS root on your DFS server, you'll see folders in the same organization as the DFS tree itself. A better solution for your Mac guys and gals would be to get them on OS 10.3 if their hardware will support it =) Jeff Mery, MCP National Instruments ------------------------------------------------------------------------- "Allow me to extol the virtues of the Net Fairy, and of all the fantastic dorks that make the nice packets go from here to there.

We have need to use SnapMirror over a WAN, currently T-1. Any suggestions on TCP/IP compression products to help minimize the amount of WAN bandwidth needed? Thanks in advance.
