useradmin command
by Robert Borowicz 20 May '03

20 May '03

I'm using the "useradmin" command to add users to my DOT 6.3.1 for CIFS authen since I don't have a DC. Unfortunately these users also become Filer Administrators and I have to be very careful not to let them onto the box. I'm looking at how to handle password administration for these users without letting them have a telnet session. Anybody use a "rsh" script to administers these user accounts? Any ideas how I can limit them? The only thing I've come up with is having our manned Help Desk administer a telnet session for them while the user is physically in the Help Desk area. Ideas? -Bob

Blast from the past. 5.3.1D9
by Jaye Mathisen 19 May '03

19 May '03

I have an old filer that we just didn't do much with. I powered it up, and it's crashing with a panic in wafl. Read a bug report that it is fixed in 5.3.1D9. The filer has 5.3.1 on it. I have the 5.3.1D9 tar files and stuff, but I believe the install uses the regular 5.3.1 disks. Are there any ways to get the 5.3.1D9 kernel on the floppy so I can boot it and let the wafl log finish getting replayed? There's nothing on there that's too critical, but I just want to double check.

RE: sem-OT : rj45->db9 pin-out to connect to netapps console port
by Reeves, Gary 19 May '03

Try this works for me Computers and terminals are typically DTE (Data Terminal Equipment) devices. DTE Adapter Wiring DB-9 DB-25 Signal Function Adapter RJ-45 8 5 CTS Clear To Send Blue 1 1 8 DCD Data Carrier Detect Orange 2 2 3 RD Received Data Black 3 5 7 SG Signal Ground Red 4 5 7 SG Signal Ground Green 5 3 2 TD Transmitted Data Yellow 6 4 20 DTR Data Terminal Ready Brown 7 7 4 RTS Request To Send White 8 6 6 DSR Data Set Ready - - (see notes below ) 9 22 RI Ring Indicator - - ( probably forget this one ) Some DTE devices require the DSR (Data Set Ready) signal. This signal is usually provided by the DCE device. If you have a DTE device (such as a terminal) that requires the DSR signal, wire pins 20 and 6 (4 and 6 on a DB-9 connector) together. This way, the DTE device will receive the DSR signal from itself when it asserts the DTR signal. -----Original Message----- From: DFinn(a)studentadvantage.com [mailto:DFinn@studentadvantage.com] Sent: Mon 19/05/2003 19:55 To: Jason.Santos(a)pinnaclewest.com Cc: toasters(a)mathworks.com Subject: RE: sem-OT : rj45->db9 pin-out to connect to netapps console port That's strange. I tried one of those and it didn't work. It's a black rj45->db9 connector labeled TERMINAL and it's the one I was using to attach to the serial port of a laptop to console into the cisco. I know the console port on the netapp works fine though because I can get into that with a serial cable and a laptop. -----Original Message----- From: Jason.Santos(a)pinnaclewest.com To: DFinn(a)studentadvantage.com Sent: 5/19/03 1:52 PM Subject: RE: sem-OT : rj45->db9 pin-out to connect to netapps console port They are pinned out the same as the adapters that came with the 2511 (labeled Terminal, I think).

RE: snapshot appearing in qtree
by Dell, Mary 19 May '03

19 May '03

Legato creates that directory on my volumes even when I'm not using snapshots. Anyway Legato backs up by creating a snapshot and then backing up the snapshot and then it (supposedly) deletes the snap, but if it fails mid-backup it might leave it out there. I assume other backup software works similarly. Not sure how to get rid of it. With at least one version of Ontap, trying to delete the contents of that folder panics the filer, so think twice before trying that! I found that out the hard way.

The sizes are right for a (3+1) x 72GB volume with 10% snapshot reserve, but the used/avail values make no sense to me. Is the "avail" for /vol/VLD_EXData/.snapshot really 18794972 rather than 8794972 (that could be a transcription error), which would be consistent with there being no snapshots. Is that what "snap list VLD_EXData" says? I don't know what to make of the zero avail figure for the active filing system ... Chris Thompson Email: cet1 [at] cam.ac.uk
