This one I don't get.
I currently add people to our system and don't see the problem you describe.
Really, what is your procedure for adding new lines to the quotas file? More specifically, what do you do after you add lines to the quotas file?
rsh <servername> quota resize <vol>
Which rev of DOT do you use?
NetApp Release 5.1.2: Sat Sep 26 05:05:59 PDT 1998
Yep, somewhat out of date, but works dandy.
Testing right now!
SO, it fails on butler, which is the same revision.
And checking on jeeves...it also fails Too!
I guess I get to eat crow on this one. :(
A benefit I have, though, is that I don't do day-to-day maintenance and I guess I was wrong all along.
Sorry 'bout that!
I'd recommend them over Auspex for their simple and robust OS, clearcut hardware design, ease of use, and speed of cleanup after a crash. With NetApps I had no cleanups; yank a cord, plug it back in, and it continues chuging within 2 minutes. Try that with an Auspex. Similar is true with many directly attached devices.
Care to give more detail to this?
I ask because Auspex was just at my office touting their new NS2000 at a price point that I haven't seen before.
OK, here come the rants.
Excellent, thanks!
Got more details?
I will be discussing these aspects with them, and testing it out myself.
The price per GB is looking oh so much better than the NetApp.
