Guys, i have do do real migration of vfiler, from your comments above, i will be using online or offline migration steps. Do i need to create each volume on the destination system ( aggrigate) before conducting vfiler migrate cmd ? this is not very clear anywhere ? i would need to match the sizes as well ? I am really getting stressed out over vfiler migration as i have over 25 volumes to migrate on one vfiler, nowhere in the process it says i need to create or will the process create the volumes ?

Hi, The old filer view had a download link for performance monitor, now with ontap how do i monitor filer performance ? I dont see any performance monitor plugin ? on oncmd ? Please note i am not talking about minimal performance details, this tool i can drill down to a share\nfs etc? Or am i getting confused with oncmd manager vs DFM ? Please point me to the performance monitor tool.

Hello, I have struggled to implement quota on a volume, our enviroment has FAS3050C ( Ontap 7.2.4 8P) in AD domain, i would like to implement quota on home directories so that users can be blocked to save more then 2 GB. Each user has it's own home directory on volume CIFSA_HOME\QHOME, the share name is CORPHOME. Ideally, i would like to have various quota on group of users, i.e Group1=1 GB, Group2=2 GB etc. I was able to turn the quota on, implement the rule & populate the quotas file, i printed out netapp reference to quotas in the ontap site and did everything in it, however without results Quota are on for the volume and initialized. #Auto-generated by setup Mon Jun 19 15:31:26 GMT 2006 axe\e203863 user@/vol/CIFSA_RESTORE 1048576K - 921600K 1048576K - I tried couple of diffrent methods of implemnting quotas file, using username in diffent fashon etc, however, i was only able to generate a soft quota alert on the filer, i was never stopped from creating or coping large amt of data. Furthermore, i was told by netapp, AD user groups do not work, i was told to use usermap file, essentialy mapping unix user name to windows, however, i dont like that option and also we are not licenced for NFS. either way, the quota rules did not enforce any thing, has any one sucessfully, able to implement quota in thier windows only enviroment, if so,can you provide a detial rule explanation. I appriciate it. Thanks

Hello, Does netapp provide automated email notification facility either via filer or DFM or scripts to notify owners of volumes when the share or volume\qtree are near full, can you explain how this can be acomplished and what is needed. We are on FAS3050 , ontap 7.2.4 P8 and use basic DFM. examples or scripts are welcome. Thanks
