ACL question
by Barry Lustig 07 Mar '02

07 Mar '02

I'm having an odd problem with ACL interactions. I have a volume with a mixed qtree. The ACLs on this volume are all Full Control for DOMAIN\Administrator and everything but Full Control for DOMAIN\Domain Users. This volume is NFS mounted onto a solaris box. If a user creates a file and them creates a symbolic link to that file, the symbolic link cannot be removed by the user. I can remove the link as Administrator, and I can remove the link if, on the windows side, I add Full Control to the ACL. Any ideas? We are running OnTAP 6.1.1R2. barry

Cabinet power cord

Hi all, I have a Filer cabinet here with NEMA L6 - 20 plug. To convert it to IEC 309 type do I have to change the entire PDU or just change the plug to fit the socket. Any ideas?? thanks, Pramod

Re: NDMP backup snapshots ever go away?
by Jim VandeVegt 06 Mar '02

06 Mar '02

I've got one volume (now that I look closer) that has a snapshot_for_backup.XXXX for about every day in the last two weeks that I would have expected a backup to be performed. Should I try to manually delete these? --Jim --- Alfred Lim <alfred(a)ptc.net> wrote: > Hi Jim, > > The snapshot will go away after the backup is done. > So no worry on that. > Alfred Lim > > -----Original Message----- > From: Jim VandeVegt <vandevegt(a)yahoo.com> > To: toasters(a)mathworks.com > Date: Wed, 6 Mar 2002 13:08:54 -0800 (PST) > Subject: NDMP backup snapshots ever go away? > > > I'm doing NDMP backups of my F760 Filers and I'm noticing an > > ever-increasing list of snapshots-for-backup accumulating.

NDMP backup snapshots ever go away?
by Jim VandeVegt 06 Mar '02

I'm doing NDMP backups of my F760 Filers and I'm noticing an ever-increasing list of snapshots-for-backup accumulating. Do these go away automatically? ===== Jim VandeVegt vandevegt(a)yahoo.com vandevegt(a)avaya.com http://members.xoom.com/vandevegt There is no luck except where there is discipline. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

It depends on your ONTAP version. I had to upgrade our 740 recently from 5.3.6r1 to 6.1.1r2 to allow me to delete these annoying snapshots. Everynow and again a snapshot_for_backup would not delete itself and under 5.3.6r1 the only solution was to reboot or upgrade the ONTAP. -Robert -----Original Message----- From: Jim VandeVegt [mailto:vandevegt@yahoo.com] Sent: Wednesday, March 06, 2002 4:09 PM To: toasters(a)mathworks.com Subject: NDMP backup snapshots ever go away?

f760 motherboard memory
by neil lehrer 06 Mar '02

06 Mar '02

hi, i want to buy some spare DIMMS. does anyone use memory not purchased from netapp? are there reasons to only use netapp mem? what are the specs on the DIMM? the price netapp is quoting me for the 256MB DIMM is surprising and all i have been told is 256MB DIMM which is not enough to find memory from an outside source. thanks

NFS ports and firewalls

Does anybody know or tell me where to find out if the ports used by the netapp filers for NFS, NLM etc are fixed and if so what they are. Regards, pdg -- See mail headers for contact information.
