RE: Is there a way to tell who is mapping specific filer cifs sha res?
by Seth Moskowitz 08 Mar '01

08 Mar '01

Not sure if anyone else has experienced this or not but thought I would mention it since I see people mentioning the "cifs sessions" command. We have clustered 840's twice when the command was run it locked up the filer head and sent us into failover. I am not sure it has happened since upgrading to 6.0.1R1 but just thought I would mention it. >From: "Muhlestein, Mark" <mark.muhlestein(a)netapp.com> >To: "'Monica Lam'" <Monica.Lam(a)cosinecom.com>, "'toasters(a)mathworks.com'" > <toasters(a)mathworks.com> >Subject: RE: Is there a way to tell who is mapping specific filer cifs sha >res? >Date: Tue, 6 Mar 2001 11:27:31 -0800 > >I don't know of a way to directly do it, but using rsh you could do "cifs >sessions *" then parse the output to see which shares are in use for each >user.

RE: RSH problem on NT 4.0
by Traitel, Eyal 08 Mar '01

08 Mar '01

Uros, A problem has been detected with some changes in rsh code in NT4 SP6. Please refer to the following article for Microsoft hotfix. Q243835 How to Prevent Predictable TCP/IP Initial Sequence Numbers http://support.microsoft.com/support/kb/articles/q243/8/35.asp <http://support.microsoft.com/support/kb/articles/q243/8/35.asp> We have added a workaround for this issue from our side, and this can be handled by a kernel patch (will be added to one of our next releases by default) which you can track thru bug number 33682. The best for you though would be to apply the Windows hotfix than to change anything on the filer.

Re: F760 Config for Oracle

Duane, Don't know if you've been here. It's a good place to start regarding some initial guidance. You can find a bunch of info at: http://www.netapp.com/tech_library/ and look for your version of Oracle. The info for Oracle8 on a NetApp cluster is generally still valid for Oracle7.

F760 Config for Oracle
by Duane Schultz 08 Mar '01

08 Mar '01

We're moving to NetApp storage for our Oracle database (Sun E6500) and have a single F760 with 4 36GB shelves - about 1TB raw (I know usable storage will be way less than this). We will be moving to a cluster in about 4 months, but wish to use as a semi-live development environment in the meantime. What is a recommended volume configuration for this sort of situation ? Current thoughts on our end are two physical volumes, two shelves in each, and split each physical volume into two qtrees/mountpoints. Once we have the cluster partner, we would expect to move one of the physical volumes to the new head, and spread load across them. What are other people doing here ? -- | Duane Schultz System Manager | | duane(a)connect.com.au connect.com.au pty ltd | | Tel: +61 3 9251 3676 Level 9, 114 Albert Road | | Fax: +61 3 9251 3666 South Melbourne 3205 Australia |

Adopting Mac Clients
by Collins, Jim 07 Mar '01

07 Mar '01

I would like to pose a question. Has anyone had to incorporate Mac clients into an NT domain from Novell ? Using a Netapp filer as the storage medium for such. I am looking at moving these clients files from a Novell server to the Netapp. I have read the 'NT' material on what needs to be done as far as the files being put on an 'NT' server. But am unsure of what needs to be done to make it work with Netapp. Any information would be greatly appreciated. Jim Collins S&C Electtric Company Chicago IL

Excluding files from NDMP backup
by Tom "Mad Dog" Yergeau 07 Mar '01

07 Mar '01

Is there a way to exclude files from an NDMP backup? By this I'm asking both (1) A subdirectory of a volume or qtree that's being backed up (2) Files with specific extensions (e.g. *.pst files so you don't back up Exchange email archives) We're using Veritas NetBackup 3.4. Thanks, MD

We use Xinet's (http://www.xinet.com) KA-Share product to do exactly the same thing (i.e. mount an NFS file system and re-export it as AppleShare). I also did this at a previous job. Works very well. What's nice about the AppleShare re-exporting model (as opposed to putting CIFS or NFS on the Mac) is that there is nothing to install on the Macs -- they work natively with AppleShare, so you can put a brand-new, out-of-the-box Mac on your network and start downloading it immediately. I believe KA-Share runs on Sun, SGI, and HP.

RE: Adopting Mac Clients

If you're running ONTAP 5.x, start using DAVE, and then upgrade to 6.x, note that according to the "possible upgrade issues" for going to 6.0.x is If your filer is accessed by Macintosh computers using the DAVE client from Thursby Systems, the DAVE client starts using the new streams feature when this release of Data ONTAP is installed, and information that was stored in special resource.frk files is lost. To solve this problem, you should run the na_macstream program from a Windows client after the upgrade to this release of Data ONTAP is completed and before DAVE clients access any files. Instructions for obtaining, installing, and running the na_macstream program are included in the Start Here.

Using netapp filer with cifs-only license, I can install DAVE on any Mac, that need access to the filer and it works. There is one restriction I read about with DAVE and Filer: "You cannot add, change or remove ACLs from the Mac. All privileges are working on the macintosh and the mac is integrated on the NT domain as NT workstation." (??) This requires a NT Domain Controller. You need OnTap Version 5.3 or newer and DAVE 2.5 or newer. The nfs Client Software from Thursby is called MACnfs. Regards Udo -----Original Message----- From: Thomas Heffron [mailto:theffron@wisedata.com] Sent: Mittwoch, 7. März 2001 17:11 To: Collins Jim; toasters(a)mathworks.com Subject: RE: Adopting Mac Clients Jim, I work for a NetApp reseller and have been involved in a few implementations with Mac clients. There's two ways to look at the issue. Do you want the Macs to "talk" directly to the NetApp or do you want them to go through an NT domain? In the first case, there are several third party NFS client software apps for Mac that work well. The DAVE client from Thursby systems is one that I'm familiar with. Remember that this requires an NFS license on the Filer and means you have to manage an NFS style database or mapping to the NT domain. The other case requires you to put the Mac clients in the NT domain and map the drives from the Mac directly. Two ways to look at this: 1) "Force" the Macs to "talk/interpret" in the NT space. 2) "Force" the NT domain server to "talk/interpret" for the Macs. The second option requires much overhead because you need to "reshare" the Filer's NT shares through the NT server with Mac services. (Remember - you can't install Mac services for NT on the Filer). On an additional note... The latest Macintosh OS (version 10) is built on a UNIX kernel and has the NFS client built into it. So the NFS solution may be best for the future. (After buying the Filer's NFS license - of course). Hope this helps.
