NetApp C30 storage system with two nodes. Two aggregates have been created as per best practices, each with approximately 99.3 TB of usable capacity. Aggregate 1 hosts a CIFS/SMB FlexVol that is currently utilizing around 80 TB out of 99.3 TB. Aggregate 2 hosts an iSCSI volume that is utilizing approximately 10 TB out of 99.3 TB, leaving significant free capacity available. The CIFS share is accessed by users via the mapped network path: \\192.168.30.101\dxb_data\Data All user data resides within a single qtree (without quotas), and the volume junction path is /DXB_DATA, Storage efficency is enable    Due to capacity growth on Aggregate 1, I would like to utilize aggregate free capacity for existing CIFS shares. The key requirement is to ensure that end users can continue accessing the HR folder using the existing mapped drive path, with no disruption to service and no changes required on the client side. ...

Hi guys, I got a really weird problem here...   I got a Netapp ontap 9 CIFS server with 4 lifs, on 3 VLANs: NETAPP2::> network interface show -vserver CIFS_01 Logical Status Network Current Current Is Vserver Interface Admin/Oper Address/Mask Node Port Home ----------- ---------- ---------- ------------------ ------------- ------- ---- CIFS_01 CIFS_01_av_conn_no2 up/up 10.18.0.201/21 NETAPP2-02 a0a-2 true CIFS_01_bkp up/up 10.18.8.77/27 NETAPP2-01 a0a-61 true CIFS_01_servers up/up 10.18.2.200/21 NETAPP2-01 a0a-2 true CIFS_01_usuarios up/up 10.18.10.18/29 NETAPP2-02 a0a-5 true 4 entries were displayed. I got clients on all 3 VLANs... Also, I got a number of shares... After I did some volume moves, I had problems to access some shares, which I solved moving one of those lifs to another node (I think part of my current problem lies on this... still I can't figure it out...). I got one specific share, "backup_conf", that it's volume is hosted on node 01: NETAPP2::> vol show -volume share_backup_conf -fields node vserver volume node ------- ----------------- ---------- CIFS_01 share_backup_conf NETAPP2-01 The share: NETAPP2::> share show -share-name backup_conf -instance (vserver cifs share show) Vserver: CIFS_01 Share: backup_conf CIFS Server NetBIOS Name: CIFS_01 Path: /backup_conf Share Properties: oplocks browsable changenotify show-previous-versions Symlink Properties: symlinks File Mode Creation Mask: - Directory Mode Creation Mask: - Share Comment: serviço operacional 22249 compartilhamento para backup de configuração a pedido do Chaves Share ACL: Everyone / Full Control Guest / Full Control File Attribute Cache Lifetime: - Volume Name: - Offline Files: manual Vscan File-Operations Profile: standard Maximum Tree Connections on Share: 4294967295 UNIX Group for File Create: - NETAPP2::> So... I got a client on VLAN a0a-61, it can access that share on that VLAN... my other clients on VLAN a0a-2 can't access it... Ontap Firewall is disabled (also don't worked when it was enabled...), I got no access restrictions related to CIFS lifs... So I can't figure out why clients on VLAN 2 can't access this share thru VLAN 2 while at the same time they still can access every other share, while clients on VLA 61 are able to access every share even this one thru VLAN 61... Also, all clients on all VLANs can use "smbclient" command to "list" to every share on the CIFS server using the filler IP on their VLAN, but when I try to mount using the same options under SMB 3.0 (only one enable), using the SAME AD credentials, clients on vlan other then 61 can't mount that specific "backup_conf" share... Could there be something wrong with on of my nodes? ARP table (I really out of ideas now....) ...  SMB Client command that works on every host (VLAN 2 and 61) and shows every share, with no problem: [root@bacula-sc ~]# history | grep smbcli 1341 2026-01-19 15:41:48 smbclient -L 10.18.2.200 -U us-bacula -W trt18 1342 2026-01-19 15:42:32 smbclient -L 10.18.8.87 -U us-bacula -W trt18 1344 2026-01-19 15:42:47 smbclient -L 10.18.8.77 -U us-bacula -W trt18 1345 2026-01-19 15:44:40 smbclient -L 10.18.2.200 -U us-bacula -W trt18 1356 2026-01-19 16:40:19 history | grep smbclient 1357 2026-01-19 16:40:33 smbclient -L 10.18.0.201 -U us-bacula -W trt18 1360 2026-01-19 16:40:54 smbclient -L 10.18.0.201 -U us-bacula -W trt18 1362 2026-01-19 16:53:18 history | grep smbcli Mount command that only works on VLAN 61 clients: mount -t nfs -o rw,bg,hard,nfsvers=3,tcp,rsize=1048576,wsize=1048576,noatime,nodiratime,nconnect=8 10.18.8.73:/nfs_sasa_0 /mnt/test_netapp Mount command that DON'T work anymore on VLAN 2 clients, but should work, it worked till JAN 15, when I moved some vols and got some errors: mount -t nfs -o rw,bg,hard,nfsvers=3,tcp,rsize=1048576,wsize=1048576,noatime,nodiratime,nconnect=8 10.18.2.200:/nfs_sasa_0 /mnt/test_netapp ps.: Ok, I got it, something went foobar on day 15, but I'm also a little lost on Netapp logs (there are too many logs...)... Can someone give me some advice? ... View more

Hi,   I'm using the Python Netapp libraries to create some scripts to allow users to create and delete volumes on a specific svm.  The user was created with security login create and assigned a rest-role.  The create function works but delete fails with a message. job failed: not authorised for that command.   if I replace the limited user with the admin user the delete command succeeds, I suspect I'm missing a privilege somewhere but I'm not sure where to look, we're on NetApp Release 9.14.1   any suggestions/help would be greatly appreciated.   Thanks in Advance.

  We would like to start looking at certain shares regarding access,  modify, deletion the files.  The logs should contain one month of data.  Can this be done?   Also, we have a IBM SIEM which the logs could be sent to.   We are on the following version: NetApp Release 9.14.1P6   Thanks, TT       ...
