cifs-share-acl-list-iter-start & Vfiler Tunneling

DWAYNECAMP — Tue, 07 Aug 2012 21:32:28 GMT

Hi Guys,

I am able to use cifs-share-acl-list-iter-start on a filer level. However when I try to use with vfiler tunneling I get the following error below:

unable to find API: cifs-share-acl-list-iter-start for vfiler vfiler_name

Looking on the docs cifs-share-acl-list-iter-start does not seem to support vfiler tunneling, however cifs-share-acl-list-iter-next and cifs-share-acl-list-iter-end seem to support vfiler tunneling. (This might just be documentation)

Has anyone used the above API's before ?

Testing filers with Ontap Version 7.3.5

Hi Dwayne -

You have hit burt 443207, http://support.netapp.com/NOW/cgi-bin/bol?Type=Detail&Display=443207, which is not public. It is not fixed until 8.2. The documentation comes directly from the internal API specification, so cifs-share-acl-list-iter-start is not vfFiler supported. Regards,

Rick,

Thank you for the reply Rick. Been wondering what is wrong with my code.

How do I mark this question as answered ?

Dwayne,

See if you can find "Mark this answer as correct" at the bottom of the post where there is like and reply button.

Just posting a little work-around I created in case you really need to parse the ACL's.

################################

$controller = "10.0.0.1"

$vfiler = "myVfiler"

# connect to the vfiler

Connect-NaController $controller -vfiler $vfiler

# get the list of the shares (this command is not affected by the burt)

$shares = Get-NaCifsShare

# container for the result

$global:aclList = @()

# because of the burt, we get the ACL info through CLI instead

$command = "vfiler run $vfiler cifs shares"

Invoke-NaSsh -Command $command -WarningVariable warningMsg -OutVariable outMsg -ErrorVariable errorMsg 2>&1 | Out-Null

function parseCifsSharesOutput($output){

$acls = @()

$tempshare = ""

# parse the lines

$lines = $output.Split("`n")

foreach($line in $lines){

# if were are past the "----" lines, we can can start parsing

if($infostarted){

# it the line is start with a "tab", it's an acl

if($line.StartsWith("`t")){

# ACL found

$line = $line.Trim()

$acl = $line.Split("/")

if($acl.Count -eq 2){

$newacl = "" | Select ShareName,MountPoint,Description,User,Permission

$newacl.ShareName = $tempshare.ShareName

$newacl.MountPoint = $tempshare.Mountpoint

$newacl.Description = $tempshare.Description

$newacl.User = $acl[0].Trim()

$newacl.Permission = $acl[1].Trim()

$acls += $newacl

}

# if the line does not start with "tab", it is a new share entry

}else{

# new share found

$line = $line.Trim()

# ignore blank lines (normally at the end)

if($line -ne ""){

$share = $line -split "\s+/"

$tempshare = $shares | where{$_.ShareName -eq $share[0].Trim()}

}

# we ignore all lines until we come accross "----"

if($line.StartsWith("----")){

$infostarted = $true

}

$global:aclList = $acls

}

if(-not $warningMsg -and -not $errorMsg){

parseCifsSharesOutput $outMsg

$global:aclList | ft

}else{

write-output "Warning : $warningMsg"

write-output "Error : $errorMsg"

}

Mirko - How does this handle share paths with spaces in the volume names?
