Hello Community,

first of all I am new to NetApp.

I try to set up a pNFS environment. Therefore i installed Netapp Simlator 8.1 C-Mode and used the Document "Parallel Network File System Configuration and Best Practices for Data ONTAP 8.1 Cluster-Mode (TR-4063) https://communities.netapp.com/docs/DOC-16613 .

Everything works fine till i try to verify my setup (7.1 Enable pNFS on Vserver)

.

simcluster::*> nfs show -vserver nfsvsrv1

On 7.3 "Check the Status of pNFS on Cluster-Mode" i try to enter the following command: "statistics show -object nfsv4_1 -instance nfsvsrv1 -counter *_total.

But here begins my problem. I have no Option nfsv4_1 only nfs4 is available. Is this a limitation of the simulator?  The same happens to the option -counter. There is no such option on my simulator...

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks  in advance

Best Regards

Johannes

The official pnfs is 8.1.1 I think. But you may find it in advanced mode Or diag mode in the current vsim 8.1 "set -priv advanced"

Hi Scott,

thanks for the hint. Now i have an option _counter. But if i try statistics show -object nfs4 -instance nfsvsrv1 -counter * i got no result.

I think this happens because of the nfs4 in my command and not nfsv4_1 mentioned in the text...

Any ideas whats  wrong?

Best Regards

Johannes
