CIFS Virus Scanning
by Strange, John 16 May '02

16 May '02

Hey Gang, I need to create a cifs share that I can virus scan monthly, I would like to set this up with CIFS, but the underlying unix permissions seem to override and I get permission denied on the files. Is there anyway I can setup a CIFS share that does not use the underlying unix permissions. I had the share set to full permissions and it does get some of the things but a few locked down unix directories seem to get permission denied on. Unless someone knows a good virus scanner that will run on linux/solaris. Thanks, - John

John, Our email group has just gone through research on anti-virus for Solaris. They suggest looking into Trend Micro VirusWall .

Oracle 8.1 vs. netapp
by Chris Moll 16 May '02

16 May '02

Anybody seen any performance changes with going to oracle 8.1.7 (from 8.0.5) with the databases on netapp storage? (host is sun enterprise 5000, solaris 2.6). Many batch jobs ran dramatically slower on a DB that was upgraded from 8.0 to 8.1. Fingers are getting pointed to the netapp, partly 'cause nobody wants to contemplate down-revving the database. The fact that the jobs ran fine on the netapp before the upgrade would seem to exonerate it but it's a convenient target... A few efforts at tuning the DB seemed to reclaim much of the loss; I'm no oracle expert but it sounds to me like the DB is far from optimal, for example it's set to a 2k block size which seems questionable to me. Anyway - anyone encountered anything similar? Chris Moll Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory

Diskshelf/FC failure modes
by Garrett Burke 15 May '02

15 May '02

Hi All, I'd like to get some feedback on what issues people have seen in the field with diskshelves and/or FC loop that have caused either decreased performance, an outage or cluster failover. In particular I'd like to know if any particular shelves seem more error prone to either failures or operator error e.g. disks not seated properly, misconfiguration etc and also how people have found the DS14 shelves in the field. I've both SCSI ( F230, F520) and FC filers (F720, F740, F740c, C760, F840 and F840c) with FC8, FC9 and DS14 shelves. Thanks, GB ---- Garrett Burke, Operations Manager, Eircomnet. http://www.eircom.net

NetIO DMA Re-ACLing
by Lim, Weng Kiam 15 May '02

15 May '02

Hi, Seeking feedback from users who had tried using the NetIQ's DMA (Domain Migration Administrator) to migrate from NT to 2000 domain and perform the re-ACL on all files in the Netapp filer. Any issues that I should watch out for? TIA Weng-Kiam Lim

unable to create files longer than 16 chars?
by Kelsey Cummings 14 May '02

14 May '02

I've got the spooky problem here, NetApp support is working on it now but I thought I'd ask here too. This morning a unix only qtree filled up, we added space and deleted some cruft from it. So now, it's got _plenty_ of room. However, it won't let anything create a file with a name longer than 16 chars: IE: # touch /nfs/mail/kgc.really.long.filename.weirdness touch: /nfs/mail/kgc.really.long.filename.weirdness: No space left on device # touch /nfs/mail/kgc.fubar It's isolated to the single qtree on a 740 cluster running 5.3.7. This is got us spooked. Anyone ever seen this before? (I hear rumors that sometimes this happens in a CIFS environment, but we are 100% NFS.) It's also be verified to _not_ be a client problem. -- Kelsey Cummings - kgc(a)sonic.net sonic.net System Administrator 300 B Street, Ste 101 707.522.1000 (Voice) Santa Rosa, CA 95404 707.547.2199 (Fax) http://www.sonic.net/ Fingerprint = 7F 59 43 1B 44 8A 0D 57 91 08 73 73 7A 48 90 C5

RE: 740 SCSI tape controller slot assignment?
by Eisler, Alex 13 May '02

13 May '02

Well, if you take a look at /etc/sysconfigtab, you'll be able to see all the "right" configurations. One of the lines read: allow F740 X201X 1 6,2 2 which actually means that it's slots 6 and 2. (This is from a 6.1.1 system also). There are two options: The manual is right and this file has a typo (happened before) which means you can just correct it in this file and that's it (if the tape is working OK, then this should be the fix). The other option is that the manual is wrong and the file right, which means you have to move the adapter to either slot 2 or 6. I would consult NetApp before doing any of these... Alex. -----Original Message----- From: Jim Davis [mailto:jdavis@cs.arizona.edu] Sent: Monday, May 13, 2002 13:39 To: toasters(a)mathworks.com Subject: 740 SCSI tape controller slot assignment? A 740 running 6.1.1 keeps logging sysconfig: SCSI Adapter card (PN X201X) in slot 1 must be in one of these slots: 6,2. and indeed we do have a DLT7000 hooked up to a SCSI adapter in slot 1. But checking the 6.1.1 configuration guide, "SCSI for tape" shows slot 6 as the first choice ("X1") and slot 1 as the second choice ("X2") and doesn't list slot 2 as a valid choice at all. What am I missing?

re-registering filer in wins
by neil lehrer 10 May '02

10 May '02

data ontap 6.1x, nfs and cifs on f760s we may need to rebuild our wins databases. we can re-register our nt servers after clearing wins by doing nbtstat -RR from the server. how do you re-register a filer? restarting cifs will do it. i tried C:\WINNT>nbtstat -a file1 -RR and got back "Done Release and Refresh of Registered names" but i don't know if it really did anything. has anyone done this before, i didn't see anything in now other than restarting cifs. ---- regards

Root Volume Free Space Requirement for DataONTAP Upgrade
by Chuah, Nicholas 10 May '02

10 May '02

Hi all, Is there any documentation or guideline out there for free space requirement on DataONTAP upgrade. Root volume is currently about 12G total with 1.5G free space. Roughly 90% full. Will be looking to upgrade from 5.3.5R2 to 6.1.2R3. Unfortunately increasing the disk capacity is not an option right now. Am I out of luck? Any advice would be appreciated. Regard, Nic

odd netstat indications
by Leonard, Roger 09 May '02

09 May '02

i have filers with ATM interfaces and two ELANS per ATM NIC configured. each of these ELANS is on its own IP network and all the ifconfig info such as netmask and broadcast look fine. each of these interfaces are separatley registered with my naming services and one of them is used for backup only. however, when doing a netstat and looking at the port connections, it appears that some of the traffic from my other networks is going to both interfaces. i am running routed on all filers and have proper default routes set up. the netstat -rn info looks correct as to which interface is getting routed to. i am confused as to why some of these connections in the netstat output appear to be going to my backup network interfaces. does anyone know of any issues with either routed or ATM LANE on the filers that could be causing this? thanks, roger
