shouldn't rc_toggle_basic commands be documented on NOW? it is restricted access and i don't remember discussing "lock_dump -f" in my netapp classes.

Wow - easy as that..
Thanks Eyal, that did the trick and we sorted the issue.
I can see why these commands are slightly mystical though. It would be all to easy to pick up the manual and start hammering away in rc_toggle_basic, and you can really play around with things in there. The few useful snipets I have learned are just that - useful in one situation, but quite dangerous in another.
Thanks again Eyal
Simon

I agree. We do not publish all commands, but my answer was not kind of RTFM, but more a specific answer to the question...
I hope it helps...
You can always open support cases, so don't count on toasters answers if this is a must-be-answered issues.

what is lock_dump -f?
From its man page:
NAME lock_dump - print lock records organized by client or by
host (ADVANCED)
SYNOPSIS lock_dump [ -f | -h ]
DESCRIPTION lock_dump prints NLM lock records organized either by file,
or by host.
OPTIONS -f Prints lock records organized by file. -h Prints lock records organized by host.
This might be read as a sotto voce form of "RTFM"... But, of course, few people outside NetApp will have seen these man pages for the commands hidden behind rc_toggle_basic. They aren't distributed with ONTAP, and they aren't visible at NOW.
