Don't the 3000 series boxes have an inbuilt RLM port for console management over IP?

so i can do
level 1vif : multi1 + mutli2 level 2 vif: single1 (out of 2 multi) vlans: 2 vlans on top of single 1
in cluster config? Have this been done?

There is no default management interface on a 3020 or a 3050 (or a 3070 for that matter). There are 4 interfaces that come with the system. You can use them in the way you had described in your first post, then use vlan tagging, to segment your management traffic from your production traffic. So your production still gets 4 interfaces, and your management interface is on a separate vlan from your production network. This is a different configuration then you were previously using, but that's the nature of this device. Alternately, you could purchase another nic from Netapp for management use. I'm sure you could negotiate a lower price then usual, since it's only going to be used as a management interface. -Blake On 1/3/07, Linux Admin sysadmin.linux@gmail.com wrote: > Blake, > Thanks again. > so is there a "default" management interface out the 4? > i was going to use 2 nicks to 1 switch (active) and 2 nicks to 2 switch > (passive) > 3 nics, odd number to work with vifs is very strange. > Now some people say they vif all 4 into one vif and use that for mgmt and > data. > how is it possible? > i am still confused > > > > On 1/3/07, Blake Golliher thelastman@gmail.com wrote: > > I meant using vlans to separate your management traffic from your > > production data traffic.

Its an option on the 3020, as Adam pointed out. I can't speak to it's qualitys as a management interface.
Does anyone on the list us the RLM port for every day like administration?

Blake, Thanks again. so is there a "default" management interface out the 4? i was going to use 2 nicks to 1 switch (active) and 2 nicks to
2 switch
(passive) 3 nics, odd number to work with vifs is very strange. Now some people say they vif all 4 into one vif and use that
for mgmt and
data. how is it possible? i am still confused

I meant using vlans to separate your management traffic from
your
production data traffic. Most filers before the 3000 had
one on board
interface. Even on the 980 it had a 100mb interface. With
the 3000's
and the 6000's there are now 4 or 6 on board 1g interfaces
that can be
used for either management or data throughput.
If you workload is dispersed enough that you need 4 full 1g
interfaces
for just production traffic, or your security need to be
segmented
that management traffic can't touch production traffic, then
perhaps a
separate gig card is required.

Blake, Thanks! So which one is managment then? I see dedicated managemnet iterface on all filers but
Or do you manage over the data IP? Thanks

You can use vlan tagging on it that final multi mode
trunk vlan.
There should be 3 slots available for expansion cards if
you need a
dedicated interface for managment. Depending on how
much storage is
attached to this config, you should be able to use one
of those slots
for a network card.

Folks, Not familiar with 3020 series at all. I see 4 nics
(e0a, e0b,
e0c,e0d)
on
the back of each head. Does it mean I have sacrifice one to be management and
only 3 are
available
as data? Have NetApp change things? Or can I used all 4 in
single/multi vips?
I was going to do e0a and e0c in single A, e0b and and
e0d in single
B,
and
Multi VIP C on top of Sinlge A and Single B. Not sure what to do about management. Thanks for help
