Re: JNDMP Copy
by Mike Smith 04 May '01

04 May '01

In addition to the suggestion to make sure ndmpd is on on the filer ("ndmpd on" will do it) try the transfer using paths that look like this: jndmpcopy gvl-netapp1:/vol/vol1/~snapshot/SnapSQL/gvl-triv-sql01/DATA/LOG gvl-netapp1:/vol/vol1/gvl-triv-sql01/TEST Note: All I did was remove the "c:" from the path.

RE: HSM with filers?
by Joe Luchtenberg 04 May '01

04 May '01

Darleen, Would you please elaborate? A cursory look at Enigma Data's website reveals that the HSM part of their solution is Veritas Storage Migrator, which is not interoperable with NetApp filers (unless I am completely misinformed). Am I missing something here, or are the customers to which you refer concurrently using NetApp and Enigma/Veritas storage solutions but not integrating them?

RE: Help With Dump of a Filer 760
by Cormier, Darleen 04 May '01

04 May '01

Hi Irene, Please let me try and answer your question about sequential mode. The NetApp dump and restore utility has no way to control the robotics in a library. We do not have commands which tell the robot arm go to slot 3 and move the tape to drive 2, etc. Normally those types of commands are handled by the backup software packages. When a library is setup to respond to those types of commands, it is called "Random Access Mode". Most libraries by default are set that way. However, many, not all, libraries can also be set in "sequential or stacker mode". This means that the library simply moves from slot one to the next sequential slot. It can't "jump around", it just goes from the top to the bottom. Our dump utility will start at tape one, fill it up, eject the tape, insert next tape, fill it up, etc. When the library is set in sequential mode, we can control those basic functions. That is why it was suggested you set your library in that mode, however, I suggest you check with STK t! o see if your library has that option. Hope this helps. -----Original Message----- From: Reed, Irene [mailto:IReed@tea.state.tx.us] Sent: Wednesday, May 02, 2001 3:19 PM To: 'toasters(a)mathworks.com' Subject: Help With Dump of a Filer 760 We currently own a Filer 760 running ONTAP 6.0.1.R3. Currently we are backing up Unix files via nfs mounts. Soon we plan to put a lot of NT data on the filer that needs to be backed up. Our agency backup software is Legato 6.01 running on AIX 4.3.3. This version of Legato is non NDMP aware so we cannot use it to backup the filer. I am considering buying a StorageTek L20 (10 slots with 1 DLT7000 drive) and attaching it directly to the filer via the onboard scsi adapter. I would like to use dump and restore to carry out the backups so that I do not have to buy another backup software solution. Netapp says this will work if I can put the L20 in sequential mode. Does anyone know what this means? Is anyone backing up a filer in this manner? If yes I would love to hear from you. Also any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

RE: HSM with filers?
by Cormier, Darleen 04 May '01

Hi Neil, That is true in the "standard" HSM world. Normally HSM requires several protocols which we do not support, however Enigma Data is doing something a little different. They have a software layer which is bundled together with Vertias' HSM module, and also an Oracle Database portion to keep track of everything. With this combination they are able to move off groups of files which they call projects to tape, optical or other disks and also bring them back if requested. They have some product descriptions on their web site which can give you more detail. It doesn't have all the HSM features, but that's why I suggested to Tom that he check them out to see if the had the features he needed. We have several large oil and gas customers using the package sucessfully and a couple of other customers doing evaluations. -----Original Message----- From: neil lehrer [mailto:nlehrer@ibb.gov] Sent: Friday, May 04, 2001 8:19 AM To: Cormier, Darleen Cc: "'Tom \"Mad Dog\" Yergeau'"; 'toasters(a)mathworks.com' Subject: Re: HSM with filers? i thought netapp would have to include an hsm api in ontap before this would work?

For example: SnapRestore: near-instant full volume restore (the trad option is lengthy tape restore) without affecting other volumes on the same filer. No point having snaps if you can't get the data back. SnapMirror: asynch mirroring over any distance. This is done volume-volume so you can mirror a bunch of geo-dispersed F85s to something larger at HQ. Etc, etc, etc. The key to F85 is that, with the main exception of Cluster Failover, it can perform just about all the tricks of it's larger data centre siblings. I believe that NetApp are unique in offering this downward scalability (i.e. that a smaller solution shouldn't be penalised in the functionality department). Naturally, if your environment grows, you don't have to re-engineer your processes, just plug in a bigger filer. If you want head-redundancy, think F740C which, like the IP4700, won't fit under your desk. :-) Cheers, CAW Charlie Whitfield NetApp UK FBI voice: +44 20 8756 6762 mobile: +44 7718 160954 email: caw(a)netapp.com Repel the bozo invasion! -----Original Message----- From: Tom "Mad Dog" Yergeau [mailto:MadDog@fool.com] Sent: 30 April 2001 19:45 To: 'Barry Lustig'; Toasters Subject: RE: F85 The F85 and the IP4700 are NOT in the same class of equipment.

I'm most interested in the hardware. As a continuation of my last message, EMC is pushing hard with an IP4700 against an F85. They've been touting the reliability of their box and that it has no single point of failure (2 processors, etc). I'd like to know if anyone on the list has deployed the F85 and can give a reference on them. Also, does anyone know what type of failover the IP4700 is actually providing between their 2 storage processors. It doesn't look at first glance that the surviving processor takes over the MAC address of the dead processor. It just starts arping for the IP address of its partner. barry
