admin access to ntfs permissions
by scl＠virginia.edu 11 Apr '14

11 Apr '14

Hi folks, I have run into some ntfs permission problems on a filer running 8.0.1 7-Mode. I am not a Windows domain admin, just the filer admin. I thought that I could map the share using the filer Administrator account like this: share: \\filer.virginia.edu\sharename user: filer.virginia.edu\Administrator I can login just fine, but this account apparently has no special admin privileges. I get permission denied when I try to access folders whose ntfs permissions I suspect are wrong. I also tried filer.virginia.edu\root but login fails. So does this mean that only Windows Domain admins can repair these permissions? And what about this filer option: wafl.nt_admin_priv_map_to_root Must this be "on" ? What do you do if someone revokes all access to a ntfs style folder? Is there any way for a filer admin who is not a Windows domain admin to get unrestricted access to all ntfs security style objects? Can a Windows domain admin even do this? I searched Netapp support but it just says to login as a user "with enough privilege" to change the permissions. Thanks for any help. We almost always use Unix security style.

nfs.authsys.extended_groups_ns.enable?
by Rue, Randy 11 Apr '14

11 Apr '14

Hello All, Trying to work around the 16 group limitation of NFS v3 on our 8.1 vfiler and finding references to a "hidden" option "nfs.authsys.extended_groups_ns.enable" that will effectively disable group lookups via auth_sys/RPC and instead look to the filer's AD authentication for a user's group memberships. This is similar in spirit to Isilon's "mapuid" feature and "regular" NFS's -manage-gid switch. But I've tried in regular mode, priv set advanced and priv set diag, and I always get "No such option nfs.authsys.extended_groups_ns.enable" if I try to view or change the option. Am I missing some step to make this hidden double-secret-probationary option available? Randy

snapmirror destination volume is not growing after source
by Iluhes 10 Apr '14

10 Apr '14

Folks, Please help I have snapmirror setup between 2 qtrees. netapp1:/vol/vol1/q1 --> netapp2/vol/vol1/q1 I was under impression that in 8.2 you can add space to source volume and destination will grow. When I add space or change maxfile on source, the destination remains the same Is my issue due to having just qtree snapmirror? Or I am missing something? fs_size_fixed=off

CPU usage and HA
by Martin 08 Apr '14

08 Apr '14

I know that if a Filer is not busy serving data it will run background task at a higher priority that will use the spare CPU while the Filer is not under load. In an active/active config the Filer CPU shouldn't be over 50% on each controller as above this the Filer is not longer HA. My question is if a Filer is showing low latency and isn't busy but its CPU is at 50% on each controller is this an issue? I'm not clear if you have two controllers showing 40/50% CPU due to background tasks that isn't busy whether it will still be HA if one controller were to fail? My thinking is those background tasks will just run at a lower level (some may not run in failover state??) -- View this message in context: http://network-appliance-toasters.10978.n7.nabble.com/CPU-usage-and-HA-tp25… Sent from the Network Appliance - Toasters mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

stats list instances disk output format
by Jordan Slingerland 07 Apr '14

07 Apr '14

Why does "stats list instances disk" show the disk instance name as what looks like hex but so far I have not been able to translate to anything meaningful. Example: 5000CCA0:0F91CAAC:00000000:00000000:00000000:00000000:00000000:00000000:00000000:00000000 Can anyone tell me how an easy way to map this to the disk name format I have grown to know and love. --Jordan For the seventh consecutive year, Independent Health was named one of the best companies to work for in New York State.

LACP oddness

We have 2 3270 filers, each using a LACP portchannel over 2 1G interfaces to a CISCO 6500. When we enable LACP debugging, we get this.

If our understanding of this is correct, there is a LACP packet every 30 seconds (active setting). If 3 are missed in a row, the netapp downs that leg of the portchannel. Later, a packet arrives and the netapp ups the leg of the portchannel. Does anybody with a deep understanding of this know why we get these messages and why it appears the netapp is uping and downing the interface and if this is serious. Any help appreciated.

FAS3240c SAS Cabling Question
by Carl Howell 04 Apr '14

04 Apr '14

I have a FAS3240c that has been running for years. I noticed today, while putting in some new shelves, that the IOM modules in the last shelf of a stack of DS4243's are both cabled to the wrong nodes. Filer1 SAS port 3a goes to the circle port on IOM B instead of IOM A and visa versa. Do I have to take the entire cluster down to fix this? Thanks, --Carl

simulator 8.2 doesn't appear to be running NFS?
by Rue, Randy 28 Mar '14

28 Mar '14

Hello Again All, Trying to set up an 8.2 simulator to test the nfs.authsys.extended_groups_ns.enable option (more on that in yesterday's thread). Got it running in VMware player, can reach it from the real network, can manage it in OnCommand. Added the volume, qtree, export, etc >From the CLI "exportfs" shows the export as available with access to the specified netgroup. From the GUI the export is visible and the netgroup enumerates to its members. Added the simulator license for the correct serial number and the NFS stack is licensed (although its "State" is "-NA-" on the license page). But if I try to "showmount -e" the filer from any client (CentOS or Solaris) I get "mount clntudp_create: RPC: Program not registered" as if NFS wasn't actually running. If I run "rpcinfo -p" against the filer I get a long list of ports but nothing related to mountd. "options nfs" from the CLI shows v2 and v3 enabled. What did I miss? Thanks in advance... Randy in Seattle

NFS fails?
by Mark Flint 28 Mar '14

28 Mar '14

Hi all, I have an issue with a FAS3170 and NFS. Seems that hosts are being disconnected and the only thing I can find is a strange message that would seem to point at TOE? :- Tue Mar 4 21:13:49 GMT [netapp5a: nfsd.tcp.close.idle.notify:warning]: Shutting down idle connection to client (172.17.82.34) where transmit side flow control has been enabled. There are 22 outstanding replies queued on the transmit buffer However, TOE is turned off. If someone could point me in the right direction, it would be much appreciated :) ~Mark -- The Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute is operated by Genome Research Limited, a charity registered in England with number 1021457 and a company registered in England with number 2742969, whose registered office is 215 Euston Road, London, NW1 2BE.
