In hot backup mode, then do flexclone to all DB volumes involved, will that cause inconsistency as well? Could you please tell me a little bit of more on using RMAN to keep the consistency, how?   Thanks! ... View more

This is very small task and only a size of < 1gb involved between a Window and a linux server, should not it be better to be addressed on the server level? Since I thought the storage should only for a relative large data and a relative large scale of project. For such small task, it might be not worth to increase the storage maintenance cost.   What would it be the way to address the multiprotol sharing on the server level? ... View more

Hi there,   I already have had / added multiple DC servers, the issue is not how to add more.   I wanted to remove that one from the list on the storage, since it is no longer availbe.   What should AD admin exactly do to remove it from AD, I am not so familiar with AD.   Thanks a lot! ...

Hi Hadrian,   These two different commands were run on the same SVM and same node, but got two different results. Sorry, I got typo again.    "window_id1" is mapped to "unix_id1" as the result of running command: #secd authentication show-creds -node node-02 -vserver vs1 -win-name windown_id1   and then mapped to default one "pcuser" as the result of running command: #diag secd name-mapping show -node node-02 -vserver vs1 -direction win-unix window_id1   Any idea now?   P.S. both ns-switch nm-switch is file only here. ...

Thanks for the prompt response.   In our case, the SS copies have been migrated over, but no any newer SS copies got produced since the trainstion, and the policy is empty. What could be the cause?     ... View more

Sorry! It was my typo. I updated my original post.   They are on the same SVM, and same node. ... View more

I know SM can adjust the column you can see, but "Export Policy" is not listed at all.   I guess I am ussing off-box SM, since I get to it by clicking on the icon on my desktop.   In your URL http://cluster-lif,  what cluster-lif should I choose if I run "net int show" ? I used http://cluster_mgmt, but it brings me to NA support page.   I am using 8.2, not 8.3, may be this is why I don't see the column? ... View more

>>If you cannot see export policies listed for qtrees in System Manager, you may be running an older version of System Manager.  Check for an upgrade.    I am using SM version 3.1.2RC2, which is the latest version. But, there is no "export policy" column in QTREE GUI. Any other ideas? ... View more

Hello rwelshman,   Thanks for getting back to me!   1.     If it is not a volume, and not qtree, then it has to be a directory and exported to the client, this is how you determined? Any particular mounting options required on the client when mount the directory?   2.     Can I a cifs share also be mounted on a client as NFS, and what are required settings and/or mounting options on the client?       ...

One more question about your pasted GUI.   What did you do to have "export Policy" as one of columns listed in your qtree list GUI? Since in my qtree list, I don't have such column there, only in volume/namespace GUI. ... View more

Hello Hadrian,   I am not sure if we are talking about the same thing.   A name "xyz" under the volume "oracle" is mounted on a local Linux host, but I could not find it in the qtree list, nor under namespace. Could a directory under a volume be mounted on a local host as previous poster indicated? Could "xyz" just be a directory?     Please get back to me because it is really bothering me. Thank you!   ... View more
