Ha - Mark, I'm even more confused now.. 🙂 So, are you not having an issue with the fcadapter cmdlet? Let's get that out of the way.. I'm not sure what i'm looking at now 😞

So, i was having more issues with this cmdlet. All the properties are embedded it looks like So, for example, I was only able to get certain properties doing this get-nafcadapter | ? {$_.adapterstatus -eq "online"} | Select @{E={(get-nastorageadapterinfo $_.adaptername).adapterdetailinfo.adapterfc.adapterfcinfo.fclinkrate};N="link rate"} If I do it any other way, I get AdapterDetailInfo ----------------- DataONTAP.Types.StorageAdapter.AdapterDetailInfo

Mark, I was trying to look into this in my lab, but i'm unable to see what your seeing.. Are you saying that if you run the same cmdlet with -controller $controller it throws an error ? Can you show me what normal output looks like?

Hmm.. I've been playing around with this for a day or so. I'm not having much success.. so, just to recap, the VSM policy is managed by snapmirror.conf file, but we want to snapvault off the mirror. I'm struggling with setting up this policy. I know we can't create "primary" snaps because it's a read-only volume, but we want to snapvault and then create the snapshot on the snapvault dst.. Any guidance would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

If the LUN is thick provisioned and there are no snaps on the volume with fractional reserve at 0, your Lun will never go offline. Now, the LUN might run out of space on the OS side, but that's another story

Ah, one of my favorite topics, autogrow on NFS datastores with NFS... First, let me address the Ontap autogrow settings. You can adjust when a volume autogrows via the registry for example: priv set diag;setflag wafl_reclaim_threshold_xl 90;priv set That would need to be added to the filers rc file b/c it's a non-persistent setting As for autogrow, 8.2 has autogrow / autoshrink which is a really cool feature which nees to be looked at if possible. I was trying to follow your alerting.. Are you thin on thin? Wha'ts your snap reserve? If you are thin on thin, you are @ 75% Where are you getting 88%. 1.5TB out of 2TB are 75%. Also, from experience, if you are thin on thin you need to make sure you monitor overprovision and alarms on the vc side

Don't take this the wrong way. You've been posting numerous threads over the past few days with super basic questions Perhaps you should take a netapp basic class or take the WBT classes. As I said yesterday you need to understand aggregate layout with disk raid groups.

Hmm.. Kevin something is off.. I see we are on the same page now with the aggrs. I forget to check the sv log - here is the error - Invalid primary path /vol/sv_test_m Now that's bull.. what's wrong with that path?

Kevin, Hmm.. I was aware of the same aggr limitation, so I set this up in the different aggregates, aggr1, aggr0, but still no luck. I'm running 5.2 in the lab. I also don't see that option available on our UM 5.2 server. dfm option list | ? {$_ -like "*dp*"} clientStatThresholdPeriod 300 dpDynamicSecondarySizing Enabled dpMaxFanInRatio 1 dpPriVolNameFormat %L dpPriVolNameOption global-format dpPriVolNameScriptPath dpPriVolNameScriptRunAs dpReaperCleanupMode Orphans dpReaperInterval 30 minutes dpReBaselineMode Confirm dpRestoreTransfersPerHost 8 dpSecQtreeNameFormat %Q dpSecVolNameFormat %V dpSecVolNameOption global-format dpSecVolNameScriptPath dpSecVolNameScriptRunAs dpSnapNameFormat %T_%R_%L_%H_%N_%A dpSnapNameOption global-format dpSnapNameScriptPath dpSnapNameScriptRunAs

So, i'm testing something out, and i thought i read somewhere that PM can't manage SV relationship within same filer. Even though relationship is in different aggregate. I set one up, and did dfpm relationship list after dfm host discover and didn't see it in external relationship. This is just a lab scenerio, but i'm curious. Please advise and if you have linkage that would be great. thanks

From this post it doesn't appear you understand how netapp is layed out. Disks are created into raid-groups which in-turn create aggregates. Once you defined you aggregates you can define your volumes. Within your volumes is where you either define file based via exports/cifs or luns for block Tools used for block are the lun commands and there are associated commands for cifs/nfs. If you don't understand this basic premise, you need to read up on it before you attempt to administer a filer

Jim, Ok, so I ran through what your seeing Get-navolsize is essentially getting volume size like vol size command on cli. The report which you are looking at is only giving you what the filer counts to the Active file system, meaning it doesn't calculate in the snapshot reserve A get-navol command should match which is in DFM. I tend to code with get-navolsize for true representation

I'm an extensive user of the powershell toolkit as well as DFM. I'm going to review this b/c I'm not sure i'm seeing this issue. Also, this might be better directed in either one of those forums Just clarify for me, what view in Ocum are you seeing the difference, is there a report you ran

User logs in fine and can browse OCUM without issue. Issue only happens when creating/running reports. Netapp said it could be the way the AD Account is or nested groups. I'm not buying either of them.

Agree with above poster.. When we've seen this is in our environment, we fail the active node to the passive, reboot the active node (windows clusters) and then fail back. Sometimes the VSS writers fail and only thing to fix it is reboot.. It's windows

Interesting issue with one of our end users. When they are trying to create and run reports their AD Account locks out. I want to know if anyone else has experienced this. I'm curious as to see what would cause this issue.

Ok, i'm not going to write the entire script for you. You need to at least start somewhere... Your input file should be a csv file with column headers that you can import.. $import = import-csv file.csv Then you can script off your csv with filters.. Start with get-nahelp or show-nahelp to get started

Yeah, I couldn't remember if it was failed or broken. But glad you got it.. But, you really should be using SNMP MIBS or OCUM for this. Why are you not doing that?

What are you exactly trying to do? Also, when the filer fails over, you should still be able to run powershell cmdlets. For example, if a FilerA fails over to filerB, you should still be able to connect to FilerA via powershell cmdlets. Someone please correct me if i'm wrong
