Unbreaking a disk
by Professor Frink 18 Dec '03

18 Dec '03

Trying to get a few netapps ready for putting them up for sale, and one of them I had lost the password. I booted from floppy, but used a wrong version of OnTap (or something else went horribly wrong, not sure which), and the system complains about "no data or parity disks" and lists every drive as broken. I somehow doubt all 28 drives suddenly broke, so I'm wondering how I flag a drive as not broken again, so I can zero out the array and start over. (I remember knowing this at one point, on some hidden maintenance menu.) Any tips would be appreciated. And note to self: disable "return receipts" before posting to the mailing list. Sorry if I caused any inconvenience to folks, but I promise you, I paid for it. There sure are a lot of you out there :-). (I would have thought the mailing list software would have stripped return receipt requests, but oh well.) Thanks folks.

Some of the best intrinsic value is transferable support of Network Appliance. The licenses are a costly big deal also. The hardware is not as expensive. As an employee, I can buy one of the top newest filers personally but the hardware cost is a fraction than the licensing. The fact is, without the technical support and the keys to license the software, you are really bound as to what these devices can do. Rich

RE: Acceesing Filer in Workgroup mode.

Hi, Thanks for the reply, I did not find any option of creating a machine account while running Cifs setup, can u help me in this.

Hi, To join a NT4 domain you have to create a computeraccount for the filer in the domain first. If you are joining an AD "domain" you can create the account from the command line on the filer when you run cifs setup. The reason your users are not able to access the filer in workgroup mode is probably your old ONTAP release. In 5.x you have to connect with plain text passwords. If the clients connecting are NT4 or later they will try to use encrypted passwords.

Add the following: Value Name: EnablePlainTextPassword Data Type: REG_DWORD Data: 1 Click OK and then quit Registry Editor. Shut down and restart Windows NT. W2K: Click Start, point to Programs, point to Administrative Tools, and then click Local Security Policy.

Hi all, I am running Netapp F230 with Netapp Release 5.2.1, The Filer was a member of a domain, but the users were migrated to another domain, so I ran cifs setup & tried to join it to a new domain, it is throwing up an error, that a computer account has to be created for it to join the domain. Since creating a Computer account is going to take a long time (Dont ask me why..... there are so many issues to that. ). I tried to join it back to the old domain, to my bad luck the security information has been changed, & a new computer account cannot be created in that domain as it is being phased out. So I am stuck now. So I have made it as a member of a workgroup, but users are not able to access the filer, How do you create local users on the filer so that users can logon with that credentials. Or can somebody suggest me a better way of accessing the filer. Regards Manjunath HN

How to sell a netapp
by Professor Frink 18 Dec '03

18 Dec '03

I know this isn't a for-sale list, and I'm not trying to use it for this. But I would like to know what people think is the best way to sell a NetApp. I have three 1T-ish F740's that I am selling, and have tried putting them on eBay, as well as putting the shelves/heads separately on eBay, and the bids were just ridiculously low, so I ended up pulling the auctions. At one time I remember hearing about an ISP equipment mailing list. Is there any preferred list like this, or other common place for selling Network Appliance hardware? Any tips would be appreciated. Thanks.
