I got the T-Shirt, but it is falling to bits after a year of frequent use... Maybe it would be a good idea to inlcude some kind of merchandise cost in the support contract that is renewed for the hardware. Adding another $10 on would not be noticed at all... I love wearing my T-Shirt to meetings with EMC :p The EMC sales guys don't look very impressed when they see it ! -- Jason -----Original Message----- From: Kitch, David [mailto:dkitch@ti.com] Sent: 20 April 2001 20:21 To: Toaster Mail Exploder Subject: RE: OT - swag They haven't given out jackets in years.

Swag
by Jeffrey Krueger 20 Apr '01

20 Apr '01

I've received a number of e-mails from disgruntled NetApp employee's and dedicated customers who don't have leather jackets yet. Be aware, all the classes I've gone to have only come with the traditional thin windbreaker, coffee mug, or occasionally a neat-o pen. I did get a nifty screwdriver when I passed the Certified Administrator exam, but that took alot of begging on my part. Obtaining the covetted leather jacket requires a combination of *years* of diligently placed hints to one's sales team, lots of positive feedback to NetApp, and an incredible amount of luck. Please don't start wailing on NetApp for leather jackets though. They'll reposses those of us who have them for creating jealosy and starting a mutiny. Besides, what you really want to work for is the red leather Corvette cover with the NetApp logo on the "hood" portion. The fur-lining makes it sporty and luxurious and it even comes with a handsome carrying bag. -- Jeff

RE: migrating data between filers
by Fox, Adam 20 Apr '01

One other thing to consider. I forgot about this but it is something to think about. vol copy does a block for block copy of the data. I'm guessing that you probably have 36GB or 72GB disks on your 840 and 4GB disks on your 330. Since the disk geometries are very different, your data on the 840 may be more fragmented (i.e. not in nice stripes) as a result of this block-by-block copy than it was on your 330. This *could* result in non-optimal performance. Now if your data changes frequenly and you have a decent amount of free space on the F840 volume, WAFL will fix this over time and you may not even see it in the first place. But it is something to be aware of. If you are concerned about this issue, you may want to consider moving the data via something like ndmpcopy which will re-stripe your data on the destination side. Again, both methods work. Both have advantadges and disadvantages (for example, vol copy is usually quicker than ndmpcopy in my experience). What's important is that you make an informed decision on which way you go. There isn't necessarily a right or wrong answer here and many folks (customers and NTAP folks alike) have strong views one way or another (kind of like vi vs. emacs). So pick the way that you think works best for you. Both are good. Hope this helps. -- Adam Fox NetApp Professional Services, NC adamfox(a)netapp.com > -----Original Message----- > From: Leonard, Roger [mailto:Roger.Leonard@marconi.com] > Sent: Thursday, April 19, 2001 4:38 PM > To: toasters(a)mathworks.com > Subject: migrating data between filers > > > i am getting ready to migrate some data from 330's to an 840 > using volcopy. > has anyone done this out there and do you have > any recomendations and/or gotchas? >

Okay, okay. For all you folks who want one, I'll be happy to provide a NetApp leather jacket with the purchase of your next F840 from me! ;-) Wait a minute, I'm only supposed to handle federal government accounts, and I can't legally do that...

Also depending on the ONTAP version, it will also make this distinction when it asks you for the parter identity. -----Original Message----- From: Sam Cramer [mailto:cramer@netapp.com] Sent: Friday, April 20, 2001 11:32 AM To: Art Hebert Cc: 'toasters(a)mathworks.com' Subject: Re: Vif and Cluster setup questions I wrote > When specifying the partner of a vif, use the IP address of the partner > interface, not the interface name. Sigh... this is exactly backwards. As the man page (na_vif(1)) notes, use the interface name, not the address. Sorry for any confusion, and I promise not to skip that second cup of coffee before replying next time! Sam
