Remote shutdown of a filer
by Peter Bryant 06 Aug '02

06 Aug '02

*** Before acting on this e-mail or opening any attachment you are advised to read the disclaimer at the end of this e-mail *** We want to shutdown the filer in the event of a (more than 10 minute) power failure to the computer room. We have a (NT hosted) script that hits all the NT/2k servers and also telnets to the Sun server and "INIT 5"'s them. Hunted around NOW site, and Google groups, but to no avail. Anyone got a means (either from NT/2K or Sun) to automatically remotely (but cleanly!) stop/halt the Filer. And can you power it off that way too? No users will be operational (no UPS for the user community) so managing remote connections is not a concern.

VIF state broken, 5.3.7R3 on F540
by Magnar Stav Johanssen 06 Aug '02

Hi! We've got 2 F540 filers, one running Data ONTAP 5.3.4, the other Data ONTAP 5.3.7R3 (latest version for F540). I'm trying to set up both filers with VIF multi (trunking) for faster network connection on a Cisco 3548 switch. On 5.3.4 everything working just fine following SAG.

PS, on ower three F760's this is working just fine using 6.2R2! Regards Magnar Stav Johanssen

RE: Migration question
by Ayyash, Monty 05 Aug '02

05 Aug '02

I recommend using NDMPCopy. It is non disruptive since it uses a Dump & Restore to disk, the process can be done on-line. If you are doing it on the same filer you might notice some CPU taxation, but nothing to serious. You can also use the Incremental NDMCopy features to accommodate gradual migration. If you need to use Qtrees you can use NDMPCopy to copy to Qtrees within the Destination Volume, just make sure you Create the Qtrees prior to starting the NDMPCopy. You can start 4 NDMPCopy processes concurrently. You can get the instructions & details on the requirements from the NOW website. ------------------------------------- Monty Ayyash, E.E, MCSE Network Appliance - Canada Professional Services Consultant 201 City Center Drive, Suite 900 Mississauga, Ontario L5B 2T4 Office: 905-804-1099 Fax: 905-804-1232 Mobile: 416-727-7892 Pager: 1-877-5-NETAPP (1-877-563-8277) Email: monty.ayyash(a)netapp.com ----------------------------------------- -----Original Message----- From: Boris Khmelniker [mailto:BKhmelniker@bna.com] Sent: Monday, August 05, 2002 1:26 PM To: toasters(a)mathworks.com Subject: Migration question Hello, We are going to migrate data from 10 9GB shelves (2 Volumes) to 1 DS14 shelf (14 72GB disk) (also 2 volumes) on the F760 filer running DATAONTAP 6.1.1.

NDMP and Tivoli Storage manager
by Pucky, Todd M. 02 Aug '02

02 Aug '02

We currently have a F820 Filer that we backup through an NT box without NDMP, but we are looking to move to NDMP backups as our data load increases. Does anyone have experience using NDMP backups with Tivoli Storage Manager? If so, does it seem to effective? How is your configuration set up? Our current Tivoli environment is a NSM 3466 with a 3494 Automated Tape Library. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Sun RPC xdr_array buffer overflow
by Brian Tao 01 Aug '02

01 Aug '02

What's Netapp's position on DOT's implementation of the RPC mechanism? -- Brian Tao (BT300, taob(a)risc.org) "Though this be madness, yet there is method in't" ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Dave Ahmad <da(a)securityfocus.com> To: bugtraq(a)securityfocus.com Date: Wed, 31 Jul 2002 11:05:00 -0600 (MDT) Subject: [Bugtraq] Remote Buffer Overflow Vulnerability in Sun RPC -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Internet Security Systems Security Brief July 31, 2002 Remote Buffer Overflow Vulnerability in Sun RPC Synopsis: Internet Security Systems (ISS) X-Force has discovered a buffer overflow in the xdr_array filter primitive. This function is a part of the Sun RPC library, and it is used in multiple RPC services. Any native or third party software that uses the xdr_array function may be vulnerable. Vulnerable RPC services are installed and enabled by default on the affected software versions. Impact: The buffer overflow vulnerability can allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands on a target system with superuser privileges. Attackers pose the most serious risk when attacking unprotected networks, or improperly protected networks Affected Versions: Sun Microsystems Solaris 2.5.1 Sun Microsystems Solaris 2.6 Sun Microsystems Solaris 7 Sun Microsystems Solaris 8 Sun Microsystems Solaris 9 Note: The versions above were tested and found to be vulnerable. Additional commercial and open-source Unix operating systems use implementations of Sun RPC, and may also be vulnerable.

Background Sun RPC is a remote procedure call framework which allows clients to invoke procedures in a server process over a network somewhat transparently. XDR is a mechanism for encoding data structures for use with RPC. NFS, NIS, and many other network services are built upon Sun RPC. The FreeBSD C runtime library (libc) contains an XDR encoder/decoder derived from Sun's RPC implementation. II. Problem Description An error in the calculation of memory needed for unpacking arrays in the XDR decoder can result in a heap buffer overflow. III. Impact Any application using Sun RPC may be vulnerable to the heap buffer overflow. Depending upon the application, this vulnerability may be exploitable and lead to arbitrary code execution. Though no exploits are known to exist currently, many RPC-based services run as the superuser (such as NFS, the NIS server, rpc.statd, and others) and thus this vulnerability should be considered high-risk. No RPC-based services are enabled by default in FreeBSD installations. IV. Workaround Do not run any RPC-based services. The RPC-based services running on a machine may be determined by: # rpcinfo -p <hostname> To disable any RPC-based services at next boot, add (or change if it is already present) the following lines in /etc/rc.conf: portmap_enable="NO" nfs_client_enable="NO" nfs_server_enable="NO" nis_client_enable="NO" nis_server_enable="NO" V. Solution Do one of the following: 1) Upgrade your vulnerable system to 4.6-STABLE; or to the RELENG_4_6, RELENG_4_5, or RELENG_4_4 security branch dated after the correction date (4.6.1-RELEASE-p4, 4.5-RELEASE-p12, or 4.4-RELEASE-p19). 2) To patch your present system: The following patch has been verified to apply to FreeBSD 4.4, 4.5, and 4.6 systems. a) Download the relevant patch from the location below, and verify the detached PGP signature using your PGP utility. # fetch ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/CERT/patches/SA-02:34/rpc.patch # fetch ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/CERT/patches/SA-02:34/rpc.patch.asc b) Execute the following commands as root: # cd /usr/src # patch < /path/to/patch c) Recompile the operating system as described in <URL:http://www.freebsd.org/doc/handbook/makeworld.html>. Note that any statically linked applications that are not part of the base system (i.e. from the Ports Collection or other 3rd-party sources) must be recompiled if they use Sun RPC. All affected applications must be restarted in order to use the corrected library. Though it is not required, rebooting may be the easiest way to accomplish this. VI. Correction details The following list contains the revision numbers of each file that was corrected in FreeBSD. Path Revision Branch - ------------------------------------------------------------------------- src/lib/libc/xdr/xdr_array.c RELENG_4 1.8.2.2 RELENG_4_6 1.8.10.2 RELENG_4_5 1.8.8.2 RELENG_4_4 1.8.6.2 src/sys/conf/newvers.sh RELENG_4_6 1.44.2.23.2.9 RELENG_4_5 1.44.2.20.2.13 RELENG_4_4 1.44.2.17.2.18 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------- VII.

Lotus Notes DB on the Netapp and Hot Backups?
by Mike Ball 31 Jul '02

31 Jul '02

Has anyone been able to do hot backups of a Lotus Notes database residing on the Netapp via Netbackup Lotus Notes backup agent? If so was there any special configuration which needed to be done to get it to work. I have been told it can not be done and that the DB must be backed up cold if it resides on the Netapp. Thank you, Mike
