RE: Snapshot Cheats?
by Traitel, Eyal 16 Aug '01

You can do: snap create before_delete delete files snap delete before_delete But this will not bring you into any better situation than the beginning one... Usually I view it like a cake - you cannot eat it and expect it to be still complete - if you want to be able to restore files you will have to keep the snapshot. If disk space is more important at this point, just delete old snapshots OR change snap reserve. ----------------------------------------------------------------- eTraitel - I'm the new eBuzzword around !!!

RE: /net/filer/blah vs. /net/filer/vol/vol0/blah

I'm only running 6.0, so it's possible something changed in 6.1, but I've been able to adjust those paths simply by editing the /etc/exports file to export the paths without the vol0. -----Original Message----- From: Jim Davis [mailto:jdavis@cs.arizona.edu] Sent: Wednesday, August 15, 2001 9:46 AM To: toasters Subject: /net/filer/blah vs. /net/filer/vol/vol0/blah After upgrading from 5.3.4-mumble to 6.1.1, it seems that clients can't access pathnames like /net/filer/whatever, but rather have to use /net/filer/vol/vol0/whatever. I think before both seemed to work more or less interchangeably, and unfortunately we have some symlinks that use the old form to point to various things that now are missing. I'm probably just missing something obvious, but is there a way to get the old behavior without using '/vol/vol0' in those pathnames?

Actually you can offline vol0 before you reboot. It won't actually offline the volume until you reboot but it will mark it to be offlined. Or if you are running 6.x, you can do it as you want but you won't need the 2nd reboot because you can offline non-root volumes without a reboot on 6.x. If you are running pre-6.x, you can do the first method and only have 1 reboot. Just a thought. -- Adam Fox NetApp Professional Services, NC adamfox(a)netapp.com > -----Original Message----- > From: neil lehrer [mailto:nlehrer@ibb.gov] > Sent: Wednesday, August 15, 2001 1:04 PM > To: toasters > Subject: resizing boot volume > > > i am going to redo my boot volume. no data to save. > > steps: > create new volume /vol/vol1 > vol create /vol/vol1 2 > > export /vol/vol1 > > copy /etc from vol0 to vol1 > > make vol1 the root volume > vol options /vol/vo11 root > > reboot > > if vol1 shows as the root volume then > vol offline /vol/vol0 > reboot > vol destroy /vol/vol0 > > rename back to default root vol name > vol rename /vol/vol1 /vol/vol0 > > add some disks back to the new vol0 > vol add /vol/vol0 3 > > > am i missing anything? > > thanks. > > > > -- > > > regards >

RE: ndmpcopy - dir size changes
by Link, Bill (OTS-EDH) 15 Aug '01

Over time as files are deleted directories get more and more deleted entries which are essentially holes in the directory file. NDMPCOPY or even extracting a tar archive will compress the directory files by deleting the unused dirents. Bill -----Original Message----- From: Manny Kaiser [mailto:mkaiser@mmcnet.com] Sent: Wednesday, August 15, 2001 9:38 AM To: toasters Subject: ndmpcopy - dir size changes Hi, I just performed a ndmpcopy on my filer. I ran an ls -lR on the original location and on the new location. The files and sizes were identical, the directory sizes differed. Anyone have any ideas why?
