RE: Anyone out there do backups via a share?
by Muhlestein, Mark 28 Sep '01

Hmm. We don't do anything special with hidden shares. The only thing that makes them "hidden" is that the clients don't display shares that end with "$". The server doesn't do anything different. If this happens again, please take a packet trace of the failure, and open a case with customer support.

Well, I wasnt specifically referring to backups. However, I had problems sharing the snapshot dir as a hidden share for faster restores from snapshot. Sometimes it would work, sometimes it will not let you copy the file out with a share error. I had to stop the share and make it visible to get the restores to work correctly. -----Original Message----- From: Jordan Share [mailto:iso9@phantasticant.com] Sent: Friday, September 28, 2001 3:23 PM To: Honeycutt, Michael; Muhlestein, Mark; NetApp List Cc: Benn, Paul Subject: RE: Anyone out there do backups via a share?

Super-sweet. Thanks very much for this pointer. I didn't realize you could create a share of a snapshot. I just did a trial run, and everything works smoothly.

Your network isn't fully switched? On the other hand, if I really had to do something like this, I would set up hosts.equiv to not require the password from a secure account on the administrative host. I would still rather not do it at all though. I'm generally uncomfortable with rsh-ing administrative commands. -- Mike Sphar - Sr Systems Administrator - Engineering Support Peregrine Systems, Inc. -----Original Message----- From: Shaun T.

deleted files, access auditing
by Matt Graham 28 Sep '01

28 Sep '01

I am having problems with lots of files being deleted. No harm yet, thanks to snapshots and backups (thank god for netapp and veritas) As of yesterday we were almost totally certain that the problem was with mcafee virus scan for linux gone haywire. I am fairly confident that the help desk guys have got the latest virus scanners on all of the windoze workstations. However, I want to be sure that this problem is not going to happen again. I know that there is a CIFS access auditing option, but it is somewhat buggy before version 6.x. What is there for NFS? advice? -- __________________________________________________________ If you can remain calm, you just don't have all the facts¿

: The problem with rc_toggle_basic is that you have to remember : to execute it in pairs, to leave the filer in the same mode. : : Is there a better command? The most reliable way to run advanced commands via rsh is with rsh -l root:{password} "priv -level secret; {command}" The "priv -level secret" works for ONTAP 5.3 and later, including ONTAP 6.x. It sets the privilege for the current rsh connection, regardless of whether the console is currently in privileged mode or not. In ONTAP 6.x, "priv -level secret" is equivalent to "priv set advanced". Hope this helps. - Brian

Thanks for the quick reply to my previous question. I have one more likely simple question What versions of OnTap can you use {priv set advanced} over rsh, and which do you have to use {rc_toggle_basic}? If using rsh to execute commands, i have seen old versions which require rc_toggle_basic and other versions which you can use priv set advanced. The problem with rc_toggle_basic is that you have to remember to execute it in pairs, to leave the filer in the same mode. Is there a better command? -- _______________________________________________ Have you downloaded the latest calling software from Net2Phone?

Odd Log Entries

I was hoping that some one out there may be able to shed some light on the following log entries that we have started seeing on our CIFS only Netapp 840. Fri Sep 28 08:50:07 BST [CIFSAuthen:error]: CIFS - response from domain controller was larger than we could handle. Fri Sep 28 08:50:07 BST [CIFSAuthen:info]: Connection with DC \\XXXXXX Fri Sep 28 08:50:07 BST [CIFSAuthen:info]: Connection with DC \\XXXXXX established Fri Sep 28 08:50:08 BST [CIFSAuthen:error]: CIFS - response from domain controller was larger than we could handle.

Commands on Partnered Filers
by Julius Talbot 27 Sep '01

27 Sep '01

Are filesystems and interfaces local to each filer, even when clustered? Or, when clustered, does each filer shares the filesystems? Specifically, if I have filers A and B, and I run "df" and "ifconfig" against each filer: Do they return the same outputs? Or, does each filer retain its identity when clustered? So, /vol/vol0 and all other filesystems on filer A is different than /vol/vol0 and all other filesystems on filer B? Does it matter what mode I am in? Takeover, Cf Disabled, etc? So essentially, what I am asking is: Is each filesystem identifiable by it's Filer Serial number AND File system name? Or, by it's Cluster and File System name? Thank you all! -- _______________________________________________ Have you downloaded the latest calling software from Net2Phone?
