Thanks all for the replies, however, I had checked my oldest (2 weeks old) snapshot before posting here, I couldn&#39;t see that directory in the snapshot either.  <br>The filer is due for an upgrade in about 2 weeks time, just want to know whether this(missing file/directory) will affect the normal functioning of the system, so far nobody complained. <br>
I am the only one who manages the filers here and I have not made any changes except for setting &quot;nfs.mountd.trace&quot; to &quot;on&quot; for a brief period last week.<br><br>The system seems to be working fine and the commands ndmpd,ndmpcopy are available, though I don&#39;t use them currently.<br>

<div dir="ltr" align="left"><span><font color="#000080" size="2" face="Arial">Sounds like the filer was zeroed and set up without 
extracting all the supporting files, or booted from a new kernel that doesn&#39;t 
match the ONTAP files installed, or somebody deleted some stuff under 
/etc.  You can check /etc/.snapshot to see if/when /etc/boot last 
existed.  You need to refer to the upgrade docs and do a &quot;software install&quot; 
or use NFS or CIFS to extract the appropriate setup.exe / 
tarball.</font></span></div>

<div dir="ltr" align="left"><span><font color="#000080" size="2" face="Arial">You may also notice certain commands are missing, like 
ndmpd, ndmcopy and a handful of others (do ? from the command line and see if 
those commands are there).</font></span></div>

current running version.  Do a version and version -b and make sure they 
all match.</font></span></div>
