ACP - missing IOMs
by Alexander Griesser 08 May '15

08 May '15

Hey there, I was adding two shelves to one of my FAS8020s (cDOT, if that matters) recently and one IOM on each of the newly added shelves is missing in `storage show acp` or `acpadmin list_all` directly on the nodeshell. smokescreen> acpadmin list_all IP MAC Reset Last Contact Protocol Assigner Shelf Current Inband IOM Address Address Cnt (seconds ago) Version ACPA ID S/N State ID Type ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 192.168.0.1 00:a0:98:71:a0:00 000 163 1.2.2.8 536878789 SHFMS1414001364 0x5 0a.14.B IOM6 192.168.0.73 00:a0:98:72:d0:48 000 309 1.2.2.8 536878789 SHJMS1416001181 0x5 2a.21.B IOM6 192.168.0.101 00:a0:98:72:d0:64 000 373 1.2.2.8 536878789 SHJMS1416001174 0x5 2a.22.B IOM6 192.168.0.105 00:a0:98:72:d0:68 000 407 1.2.2.8 536878620 SHJMS1416001174 0x5 0b.22.A IOM6 192.168.0.191 00:a0:98:71:a0:be 000 154 1.2.2.8 536878789 SHFMS1414001364 0x5 2b.14.A IOM6 192.168.0.225 00:a0:98:83:14:e1 000 252 1.2.2.8 536878789 SHJHU1515000294 0x4 ------- IOM6 192.168.1.29 00:a0:98:72:d1:1c 000 335 1.2.2.8 536878789 SHJMS1416001181 0x5 0b.21.A IOM6 192.168.2.103 00:a0:98:83:12:67 000 251 1.2.2.8 536878789 SHJHU1515000294 0x5 0b.23.A IOM6 192.168.2.173 00:a0:98:72:ba:ac 000 392 1.2.2.8 536878789 SHFMS1417000556 0x5 2b.11.A IOM6 192.168.3.7 00:a0:98:72:cb:06 000 337 1.2.2.8 536878620 SHFMS1417000567 0x5 0a.12.B IOM6 192.168.3.13 00:a0:98:81:87:0c 000 384 1.2.2.8 536878789 SHFHU1513000260 0x4 ------- IOM6 192.168.3.19 00:a0:98:81:87:12 000 285 1.2.2.8 536878620 SHFHU1513000260 0x5 2b.15.A IOM6 192.168.3.21 00:a0:98:72:cb:14 000 407 1.2.2.8 536878789 SHFMS1417000567 0x5 2b.12.A IOM6 192.168.3.25 00:a0:98:72:2f:18 000 305 1.2.2.8 536878789 SHFMS1416000221 0x5 2b.13.A IOM6 192.168.3.95 00:a0:98:72:cb:5e 000 471 1.2.2.8 536878620 SHFMS1417000556 0x5 0a.11.B IOM6 192.168.3.131 00:a0:98:72:2f:82 000 386 1.2.2.8 536878789 SHFMS1416000221 0x5 0a.13.B IOM6 smokescreen> storage show acp Alternate Control Path: Enabled Ethernet Interface: e0P ACP Status: Active ACP IP Address: 192.168.2.215 ACP Subnet: 192.168.0.0 ACP Netmask: 255.255.252.0 ACP Connectivity Status: Additional Connectivity ACP Partner Connectivity Status: Additional Connectivity Shelf Module Reset Cnt IP Address FW Version Module Type Status ----------------- ------------ --------------- ------------ ------------ ------- 0b.23.A 000 192.168.2.103 02.08 IOM6 active 0b.21.A 000 192.168.1.29 02.08 IOM6 active 0b.22.A 000 192.168.0.105 02.08 IOM6 active 2b.15.A 000 192.168.3.19 02.08 IOM6 active 2b.12.A 000 192.168.3.21 02.08 IOM6 active 2b.14.A 000 192.168.0.191 02.08 IOM6 active 2b.11.A 000 192.168.2.173 02.08 IOM6 active 2b.13.A 000 192.168.3.25 02.08 IOM6 active 2a.21.B 000 192.168.0.73 02.08 IOM6 active 2a.22.B 000 192.168.0.101 02.08 IOM6 active 0a.14.B 000 192.168.0.1 02.08 IOM6 active 0a.13.B 000 192.168.3.131 02.08 IOM6 active 0a.12.B 000 192.168.3.7 02.08 IOM6 active 0a.11.B 000 192.168.3.95 02.08 IOM6 active NA 000 192.168.0.225 02.08 IOM6 inactive (no in-band connectivity) NA 000 192.168.3.13 02.08 IOM6 inactive (no in-band connectivity) I've done some research and found that usually a TO/GB helps in this situation, but I'm - of course - trying to avoid that.

I tried to disable and re-enable ACP, but that didn't help (maybe I did it wrong, have never fully disabled ACP on a cDOT system), so any pointers are welcome. Also, config advisor suggests to install missing shelf firmware, so I was wondering if it is safe to install the shelf firmware while an IOM is missing on the ACP?

Retiring an Exchange dataset?
by James Andrewartha 08 May '15

08 May '15

Hi list, We've recently upgraded our Exchange install from 2007 to 2013. As part of this I did a fresh install of SME 7.1.1 on the new mailbox server, which created a new dataset. With all the user data migrated off the off the old mailbox server, I now have a dataset full of archive information. Is there any way to keep it around in case I ever need to restore from it with SMBR, but uninstall Exchange from the mailbox server? Will SME still keep the backup information in that case? Could I maybe just reinstall the management tools? Also, I unmounted the LUNs, moved the volumes to a SATA disks on a different filer using SnapMirror, updated the SnapVault relationship and remounted the LUNs, which worked fine. The dataset itself didn't recognise this update however, and now it's complaining it can't create relationships. Can I just delete the dataset from DFM? Will that delete the data or leave it around? Thanks, -- James Andrewartha Network & Projects Engineer Christ Church Grammar School Claremont, Western Australia Ph. (08) 9442 1757 Mob. 0424 160 877

Netapp 4 node cluster aggregate question
by Basil 07 May '15

07 May '15

Hi folks, If I have a 4 node cluster (running 8.2 CDOT) and I want to install 5 shelves of 10k SAS and 5 shelves of 7.2k drives, what would you recommend I do regarding aggregates? Normally on a 2 node cluster, we'd put all the SAS on one node and all the SATA on the other one. In this case, should we ensure that each node has an aggregate and attempt to avoid using the cluster network as much as possible? The work being done is file shares and NDMP backups, both of which tend to run out of CPU and memory before they redline the backend disks. We want to use the processing of all four nodes, so that means we'll be spreading the LIFs across them all. Thanks!

cDOT 8.2.1P3: removing PSU from a disk shelf went unnoticed for OCUM / Autosupport
by Momonth 06 May '15

06 May '15

Hi, So I've been testing cDOT monitoring for a while now. I'm using OCUM as my primary source of alerts, but also deploying NetApp SDK based checks in nagios. Here is what I noticed on (almost) "live" 6 nodes cDOT cluster, autosupport / OCUM configured and tested: 1. Take a cDOT node in Multi-Path HA / ACP Full Connectivity config (I'd guess this is what most people run). 2. Take a random disk shelf configured on the node in the cluster, it was DS2246 SAS 10K RPM 1.2TB disks in my case. 3. Remove one PSU on the disk shelf. The results: 1. It does not generate Autosupport message about the PSU missing. 2. OCUM doesn't trigger an alert. The only sub-system that noticed the issue is 'event': Time Node Severity Event ------------------- ---------------- ------------- --------------------------- 4/30/2015 12:11:01 na101node-1a WARNING ses.status.psWarning: DS2246 (S/N SHFHU1427000502) shelf 20 on channel 0b power warning for Power supply 1: not installed. This module is on the rear of the shelf at the bottom left. But it didn't go any further. Has anyone else seen this behavior? I wonder if I'm missing some settings etc .. Cheers, Vladimir

NetApp and VMware Access Path Down (Dead)
by Mike Michalakis 30 Apr '15

30 Apr '15

Has any experienced to following especially with a VMware environment. The storage system is tugging along happily and then you get High request for resources, resulting in CPU and Disk going about 90%. This isn't my question. My question is; within the VMware environment you get High Latency, then "Dead Path" and in the vmkernel.log high "WORLD" counters, this is normally resolved via a reboot of the VMhost, after the APD the NetApp resources go backdown to 0% until the next peak. Is the above considered normal, with high utilization systems, if not what should the behaviour be? OnTap is 8.2.1P2 7-Mode.

Multiple snapvault snapshots and schedules.
by Jeff Cleverley 29 Apr '15

29 Apr '15

Greetings, I've got a situation where a backup relationship does a nightly backup and a weekly backup. Both go to the same destination. The snapshots are named with the _nightly and _weekly tags. This is file system data and not luns. The problem is not fractional reserve :-) I'm assuming the snapshots are still based on one another and each doesn't have it's own baseline. Is this correct? The problem is someone at a remote site appears to have done a drag and drop which generated ~2 TB of "new" data. The remote site has a very limited WAN. The completion of the current backup session will run for ~2 month before it completes. If I have to do a new baseline, it will also take about that long. Since the snapshots got out of hand, it caused the file system to grow beyond the designated size the volume guarantee has been disabled, and it actually filled up the containing aggregate. I'm hoping to be able to delete one of the SV snapvaults to free space and get things in line space wise. Unfortunately I'm expecting I'll still have to let a 2 month backup run one way or another. If I'll end up with a new baseline anyway, I may as well nuke everything now and start it. At least I'll be able to delete some snapshots and free space. Thanks, Jeff -- Jeff Cleverley IT Engineer 4380 Ziegler Road Fort Collins, Colorado 80525 970-288-4611

cDOT cluster kernel-service

Anyone have a 4-node 2240 cluster running 8.2.x? If so, could you tell me if failover says enabled or disabled when you do a "cluster kernel-service show" in diag mode.

Re: Adding DS2246 to FAS2240-2 with existing DS4243
by Francis Kim 28 Apr '15

28 Apr '15

Just be sure to document your cabling carefully, so someone how comes after you down the road, including yourself, to add another shelf will know that your latest DS2246 in your stack is really next-to-the-last in cabling terms. Don’t expect cabling to look pretty after you insert your shelf into the middle of the stack. I’ve recently had ACP housekeeping complain about missing IOMs, even though cabling was all correct after the shelf addition. If disabling and reenabling ACP and cable pull/inserts don’t clear it, you might have to actually pull the IOM and reseat it. All non-disruptive operations as long as you start out from Multipath HA state.
