Veritas Netbackup Question
by Barry Lustig 02 Sep '03

02 Sep '03

I think that I'm in a bit of a quandary. I'm trying to implement backups using Netbackup 4.5 for a single filer and a handful of unix and windows clients. I have a single Overland library with a single tape drive. As far as I can tell, I have to dedicate the single tape drive to NDMP. This would preclude backing up other systems to that tape drive. Is there anyone on the list that has run into this type of a problem with Netbackup? Thanks, barry

qtree copy ?
by devnull＠adc.idt.com 02 Sep '03

02 Sep '03

I just upgraded to 6.4.1 this weekend and added a disk shelf to my f810. I had to move some of my projects from one volume to another and couldnt find like a qtree copy to move a part of the volume. I had to use tar from a unix host. Would it not be a nice feature to have something that doesnt involve the network and just goes with the disk shelves. Just a thought... /dev/null devnull(a)adc.idt.com

Netgroups other than with access

Wafliron/WAFL_check in read only mode/tell me if something is wrong, but don't fix mode
by Garrett Burke 02 Sep '03

02 Sep '03

Hi, Due to a snapmirror failing issue, NetApp support have advised us to run wafliron (online) or WAFL_check (offline) on the source volume. They have advised us that there's no way to check a volume while online for errors - a 'tell me if I need to run WAFL_check in fix mode, but don't do anything now' (I realise that WAFL_check prompts before fixing) The issue is that we do not want to schedule offline maintenance with an unkown end time when we don't know if there's anything wrong with the filesystem. We expect that the check to take several hrs as we have 13.5m files & 340G in the volume. Have other run into this before? I see the lack of 'check while online, but don't fix' as a serious flaw with OnTap. Thanks, GB ---- Garrett Burke, Service Implementation & Support Manager, Eircomnet. http://www.eircom.net

RE: What is the "Type bit scan" that happens after wafliron?
by Charles Roufay 02 Sep '03

hi, Type bit scan done on vol The message is part of the inode file upgrade scan that generally occurs after the filer is upgraded to a new major Data ONTAP release, or after WAFL_check is run. "Type bit scan" messages are informative only and can be ignored. charles -----Original Message----- From: Chris Thompson [mailto:cet1@cus.cam.ac.uk] Sent: maandag 1 september 2003 21:43 To: toasters(a)mathworks.com Subject: What is the "Type bit scan" that happens after wafliron?

A PRIVATE MAIL FROM JOSEPH COLEMAN.
by josephcoleman＠kon-x.com 02 Sep '03

02 Sep '03

FROM:MR JOSEPH COLEMAN ASYLUM SEEKERS CENTER, GROU-JIRSSUM, NEDERLAND. PLEASE REPLY TO MY MOST CONFIDENTIAL E-MAIL ADDRESS:josecoleman40@netscape.net DEAR FRIEND, I am Mr Joseph Coleman the eldest son of Chife Micheal Coleman from Sierra Leone. I am writing you in absolute confidence primarily to seek your assistance to transfer our cash of Twenty five Million and five hundred thousand Dollars ($25,500.000.00) now in the custody of a private Security trust firm in Europe the money is in trunk boxes deposited and declared as Precious stones by my late father as a matter of fact the company does not know the content as money, although my Father made them to understand that the boxes belongs to his foreign partner. Source of the money: My late Father Chief Michael Coleman is a native of Mende tribe in the Northern province of Sierra Leone, was the General Manager of Sierra Leone Mining co-operation (S.L.M.C.) Freetown . According to my Father this money was the income accrued from Mining Co-operation's over draft and minor sales. Before the peak of the civil war between the rebels forces of Major Paul Koroma and the combined forces of ECOMOG peace keeping operation that almost destroyed my country, following the forceful removal from power of the civilian elected President Ahmed Tejan Kabbah by the rebels. My Father had already made arrangement for his family to be evacuated to Ivory coast with the CERTIFICATE OF DEPOSIT he made with a security firm in Europe through the aid of U.N evacuation team. During the war in my country and following the indiscriminate looting of Public and Government properties by the rebel forces, the Sierra Leone mining co-operation was one of the target looted and it was destroyed. My Father including other top Government functionaries were attacked and killed by the rebels in November 2000 because of his relationship with the civilian Government of Ahmed Tejan Kabbah. As a result of my fathers death and with the information we got that the rebels are out for us the burden became too much for me to handle coupled with the ill health of my mother she died in the process as I could not afford her a decent medical care. The unrest in Ivory Coast and the threat from the rebels against our lifes,made us to be evacuated to Nederland last December where I and my family are seeking political asylum, we are at present in an asylum camp in a small village in Nederland(HOLLAND). Our only hope now is in you and the boxes deposited in theSecurity Firm To this effect, humbly solicit your assistance in the followings ways. 1. to assist me claim this boxes from the security Firm as our Foreign partner 2. to transfer this money (USD$25.5 M) in your name to your country 3. to make a good arrangement for a joint business investment on our behalf in your country and you, our Adviser/ Manager. For your assistance, I have decided that 20% of the total amount will be for your effort and another 5 % to cover all the expenses that may incur during the business transaction, Last, I urge you tokeep this transaction strictly confidential as no one knows our where about. Please as you show your willingness, Forward to me your full name, address and Tel/ Fax numbers, to me via my private email, and I will get back to you immediately with more information's and subsequently send you the necessary documents needed in this transaction. Thanks. May God bless you as you assist us. MR JOSEPH COLEMAN

What is the "Type bit scan" that happens after wafliron?
by Chris Thompson 01 Sep '03

Re: Quota usage non-zero but no files to account for it
by Chris Thompson 01 Sep '03

01 Sep '03

Towards the end of July I attempted to post about this problem to toasters, but mathworks took a dislike to the messages for some reason, and so you may not have seen them. Summary of the original problem: when removing the home directory for a particular cancelled account, the usage accounted against quota did not fall to zero, but to 1376 KB and 896 inodes. No trace of these 896 files could be found within the filing system, but "quota off" & "quota on" exactly regenerated the usage values. Since then I have had the opportunity to run "wafliron" on ("vol copy"s of) the filing system, and it recovered exactly the lost 896 files into /lost+found. Some detective work suggests that the inodes got detached from the filing system almost as soon as they had been created (over 2 years ago): there is evidence of an unzip by the user going over quota being involved. At that time we were running 6.1R1. It is possibly significant that 896 is exactly 7 blocks worth of directory entries, provided the names are short enough. Chris Thompson Email: cet1(a)cam.ac.uk

snapmirror perf in loopback mode (36Gb/hr)
by Stephane Bentebba 01 Sep '03

01 Sep '03

hi all, i can't be sure of the following point : if i set up a snapmirror on a single filer from one vol to another one, (without using the network as in two filer snapmirror configuration) does the snapmirror throughput is limited to the pseudo device loopback limit ? (internal ontapp coded limit of 36Gb/hr (100BT)) or does it can go above this limit ? i think it was limited to 36Gb in older version of dot and was corrected in newer versions, if true, do we need to make a dot upgrade for our machine in 613r2 ? fanku much in advance -- jetez un oeil ici http://www.sensiva.com/ -- -- have a look here http://www.sensiva.com/ --
