Upgrade from NMSDK 5.4 to 5.7 (HTTP not working)

muditag85 — Wed, 04 Jun 2025 13:59:58 GMT

Hi,

I recently upgraded my setup with nmsdk 5.7 version.

This sdk is talking to a 8.1.1 7-Mode filer.

After upgrade I am seeing that I am no longer able to connect to the 7mode filer over "HTTP" port.

Getting following error:

'No permission to use 'hostsequiv' authentication, must be root.

But with same credentials (and any other change) I am able to connect it over "HTTPS" port

options tls.enable is on (if it is off it fails for "HTTPS" too.

Is this issue with SDK upgrade or something else? Please help.

Thanks

Mudit

Hi,

NMSDK has moved to default HTTPS behavior from NMSDK 5.5.

To use HTTP we have to change the Transport type to “HTTP” and port to “80”

---------------------------------------------------------

In case of C/CPP:
Before creating new server connection we have to set transport type and port:below Example

transport = NA_SERVER_TRANSPORT_HTTP;
use_port = 80;
s = make_server(host, NA_SERVER_TYPE_OCUM,
user, passwd, transport, apistyle, use_port, vfiler_name);

-----------------------------------------------------------

In case of Perl:

$s->set_port(80)
$s->set_transport_type("HTTPS");
-----------------------------
likewise we can do for the language too.

Regards,

Abhilash

Hi Abhilash,

Sorry to bother you again but this solution is not working with NFS exports.

I am getting following error even after setting transport type to NA_SERVER_TRANSPORT_HTTP only in case of NFS (its working for iSCSI):

Error: 111

Thanks

Hi Abhilash,

Please ignore my previous comment but I am still facing the issue with HTTP/80 but only with ONTAP 9.2

ONTAP 9.1 is working fine both for HTTP and HTTPS

Thanks
