Raid group and volume...
by Art Hebert 05 Nov '03

05 Nov '03

I have a volume called vol0 which shows 254gb of space. I believe it has 7 data disks (34.5gb) and 1 parity disk in raid group 0. There is also a raid group 1 that contains a 1 data disk and 1 parity disk. I don't think these disks are being used in the volume vol0. How do I tell if they are or aren't? If they aren't being used how can I get them added into vol0 as 2 data disks?

RE: SNMP values keeps changing after every reboot. any solution to fix this?

The interesting thing about this is that the behaviour changed in ONTAP 6.3 and beyond. ONTAP 6.2 had the volumes sorted so they always appeared in the same order for both a "df" and for SNMP. Does anyone know _why_ they changed it? +----------------------------------------------+-----------------------+ | Carl Richard Friend (UNIX Sysadmin) | Natick, Massachusetts | | Minicomputer Collector / Enthusiast | 01760-2098 | | mailto:carl_friend@mathworks.com +-----------------------+ | http://users.rcn.com/crfriend/museum | ICBM: 42:18N 71:21W | +----------------------------------------------+-----------------------+

For all the inquiring minds, I found this under the download section: ********************************************************************** DEBUG PATCH RELEASE 6.3.1D8 Based on release 6.3.1 ********************************************************************** This is a DEBUG patch, which means it has fixes that have not been released in a regular software version yet.

Unfortunately, my answers may not be sufficient to satisfy your mental hunger. To be honest, I don't know exactly what the D8 does. I was informed that it fixes the snapmirror code. The error was found to occur only in our "specific" circumstance. So what was/is our circumstance? 1) F880 source snapmirroring 3 batch area volumes to an F820 target across a 20Mbit Ethernet WAN. 2) The amount of data change per day is high. Approximately 10-40Gb per volume. 3) We were experiencing poor throughput across the WAN link (carrier issue) and had to frequently abort the snapmirror and delete snapshots from the F880 source in order to prevent snapshot space over-running production data space. This throughput has since been addressed (before D8). 4) The F820 target panicked a couple of times and dumped to the ok prompt. One of the target volumes was found to be corrupt. It was difficult to say if the source filer caused it or the target filer developed the corruption independently. We had some cases open and ran wafl checks and scans on both filers as a result. No errors were turned up. 5) The crash dump file was ftp'd to NetApp. This lead to the 6.3.1D8 debug release. When I get some more time, I might read into it a bit further. For now, I am more than happy that they have addressed the issue and fixed it very quickly. We have not had any problems with 6.3.1 or the D8 releases.

fund transfer
by elekecr 04 Nov '03

04 Nov '03

Dear Sir, My name is William Ume, Presently, I am working in an African country. I got your contact via an online network and felt you may be willing to pursue this with me. This proposal may sound strange to you or probably you may even think it is a joke, because of lots of funny mails circulating over the Internet. Well if you do, I really understand, but honestly my friend, I am really handicaped, because this is the only means available to me to communicate to you. Honestly, I think you should give me a trial, I need your assistance and the deal is good. The deal involves the transfer of funds, safely abroad. For your role, you are to receive a percentage of the funds, based on a sharing formula that will be agreed by both parties. If you are interested in pursuing this further please contact me via e-mail so that I can furnish you with the relevant details about the origin of the fund and the modalities for the deal. Please send your response to my private e-mail williamume(a)indiatimes.com William.

I'm thinking about testing HTTP on my test filer and was wondering if anyone had any comments on this product. Good or bad. I don't have any experience with running http on filers. Thanks -Mark

Also, they work in pairs. You might yield 768MB, or the system might complain. I haven't tried this - sorry :o) > 3. How do I locate DIMM J30?
