LDAP auth ?
by Frank Bonnet 07 Jan '03

07 Jan '03

Hi Advice to netapp folks Monthes ago I asked if Ontap will support native LDAP (openldap) authentication ... I know active directory is supported BUT we do not want use M$ stuff here, we have a fully functionnal LDAP server running under UNIX ( Linux/Debian) and are satisfied with it. I repost my request as I have for now a brand new F87 that is not in production for now ( it will be in few weeks ) This machine would be a test platform if there is some beta ontap release that it supposed to support this kind of LDAP authentication. Thanks for any answer. -- Frank Bonnet

Re: a what-if disaster recovery question?

Extra filer heads not only make great swap/failover boxes, but excellent on-site spares kits and test beds as well. As such, many of our customers are dropping NetApp's expensive hardware support on their F700's.........when they suffer a hardware failure, they can swap the failing part immediately; we then ship a replacement part that goes back into their failover filer/spares kit. F720, 740 and 760 filer heads (without licensing) can be purchased for pennies on the dollar :-) Scott Scott Fischmann Union Computer Exchange, Inc. 6233 Idylwood Lane Minneapolis, MN 55436 email: scott(a)unioncomputer.com phone: 952 935 7282 | fax: 952 935 5056 "Helping our customers make each dollar go further -- since 1991!" www.unioncomputer.com > Subj:Re: a what if disaster recovery question? > Date:1/6/2003 4:34:48 PM Central Standard Time > From:<A HREF="mailto:rb@telenor.net">rb(a)telenor.net</A> > To:<A HREF="mailto:DFinn@studentadvantage.com">DFinn(a)studentadvantage.com</A> > CC:<A HREF="mailto:toasters@mathworks.com">toasters(a)mathworks.com</A> > Sent from the Internet > > > > Daniel Finn <DFinn(a)studentadvantage.com> writes: > > > What if we have a failure in one of the heads of our F760s?

All relevant raid and firmware information is stored on multiple disks, so swapping heads is simple and straitforward. I have never swapped from a "larger" head to a "smaller" head, but both heads are Alpha based, and it should work, atleast in theory, as the HW is is more or less equivilant, but there are HW constraints on max raw disk capasity, raw file system size, number of FC Host Bus Adapters etc. These factors may trip an apparent easy swap - though. I have, on a couple of occations upgraded from F720 to F740 without much ado. Only make sure to edit /etc/rc file ahead of shutdown. We keep a spare head for our F740s, but since the major load now is on F8xx (soon to add a FAS960c), we won't keep a spare F740 head on location anymore - not really important ... If disaster recovery is important, I would suggest a 'spare kit' or as we do, service contract with a local agent with 24h delivery. > Also, are shelves swappable between F760s and F740s?

a what if disaster recovery question?
by Daniel Finn 06 Jan '03

06 Jan '03

What if we have a failure in one of the heads of our F760s? We have a spare F740 head, would we be able to just put that in place? Is the raid information stored on the disk or on firmware in the head? I'm mostly wondering what would happen to the data in this situation. Also, are shelves swappable between F760s and F740s? Thanks Dan

Odd log entry
by Stephen C. Woods 06 Jan '03

06 Jan '03

We're stumped, it appears as though someone issued a disk swap command on one of our filers, however none of us did. NetApp Release 5.1.2R3 on a 540. Is there some other reason that this might occur, disk or SCSI bus glitch? As far as we can tell nothing has changed in the disk farm (syconfig -r matches the weekly email from this week). <scw> Thu Jan 2 10:08:52 PST [disk_config_admin]: *** NOTICE *** A disk has been swapped (removed or added) to a modular storage shelf. The system will wait 15 seconds and then check the status of all disk drives. Thu Jan 2 10:09:26 PST [disk_config_admin]: *** NOTICE *** Disk unit status check has completed. ----- Stephen C.

RE: mounting foreign root volume (multiple root volumes) causes p anick
by Chuck Tomasi 06 Jan '03

Vol status will tell you which one is the "root" (default boot) volume. To change it use vol options. You can have as many "stand by" root volumes as you like, but it will only boot from the marked "root" under the options column output from vol status. --Chuck -----Original Message----- From: steve(a)hq.newdream.net [mailto:steve@hq.newdream.net] Sent: Friday, January 03, 2003 12:52 PM To: toasters(a)mathworks.com Subject: mounting foreign root volume (multiple root volumes) causes panick Does anyone know if you can mount two (or more) root volumes on one filer and how tell it which on to boot from? I had a filer/shelf with a corrupt vol0. However there was user data on there I wanted to get at.

Anyone know if there is a way to specify which volume to boot from when you are mounting multiple root volumes on one filer? I've already gotten the data in another fashion but I thought it should be able to mount two root volumes on one filer. Steve
