Do you have snapshots on this volume? Check with "snap list". ... View more

You need at least one spare per disk type per controller, so one SAS and one SATA. So if you have SAS and SATA aggregates on the same controller, you would need at least two spares. ... View more

From NetApp point of view, snapshot size is the amount of unique data, not shared with other snapshots or active file system. But logically every snapshot represents full filesystem image. Depending on how your NetBackup is setup, it may perform full copy, which explains size of tape backup. ... View more

The only supported option with 8.1 is shutdown the filer. Hot shelf removal is supported starting with 8.2.1. ... View more

Controllers always come preloaded, but there is really no problem to reinstall them. As long as you connect all shelves to back-end fabric, controllers will find their disks just fine. Also normally shelves have stickers with controller serial numbers. ... View more

Effect of Data ONTAP command would be the same. Effects of large deletes are due to block reclamation and housekeeping, not due to protocol used to delete files. ... View more

Users must have NFS or CIFS access, otherwise they would not be able to place files on NetApp. So they can also use the same access to delete them. Unless I misunderstand the problem. ... View more

That's very interesting statement, because it was not possible in the past 10 years ... You can add larger disks to aggregate as new RAID group; but you cannot replace disks with larger disks and use extra space - disks will be downsized to match original small size. May be NetApp engineer meant that you can create aggregate using new disks and move volumes to it? That's obviously possible. ... View more

Mixed mode is orthogonal to this problem and usually creates more problems than it solves. The best solution is to ensure one to one mapping between Windows and Unix users. If it is not possible, poor man's group access can be implemented by mapping multiple Unix users to the same Windows user and adding ACLs for this user. ... View more

You have 43TB in aggregate; you cannot increase volume beyond this size. Could you clarify what your question is? ... View more

If you want to delete information, you could simply reinstall filer - it will zero all disks as the first step. ... View more

You do not say what filer model you have, Data ONTAP version and in which aggregate volume resides. Not to mention that “df -h” is pretty unsuitable for real analysis - it is for human overview. “aggr show_space” would give better view on actual aggregate space consumption and “vol size” would show exact size (not arbitrarily rounded up or down). ...

You need to destroy foreign aggregate aggr0(1). Any disk not part of aggregate will be spare disk. ... View more

Reclaiming freed blocks is background process, it is not instantaneous. For 100GB I'd estimate several minutes, although it probably depends in overall system load. ... View more

What do you mean "orphaned"? vmdk still exists in clone and can be accessed there. ... View more

Blocks are kept for as long as they are referenced by clone. ... View more

When you break SnapMirror, source volume is not affected at all. Destination volume becomes read-write. I'm not sure I understand you question about "live" - what do you mean? One possibility to stop access is to shutdown clients ... View more

Are those cables with integrated SFP+ or just QSFP to optical? Mezzanine LAN card supports optical SFP+ but you need to order specific model from NetApp. ... View more

It tries to create new raid group, not aggregate. You can increase raid group size beyond default 16 disks (aggr options but forgot option name ) ... View more

Nitpicking - FAS960 has standard DB9, not RJ45. Also it has Open Firmware with prompt OK>, not loader with prompt LOADER>. Finally, netboot was not officially supported on FAS900; I think I used it a couple of times but may be mistaken, it was too long ago (and it was FAS920 which is newer). At least, netboot image is present for these old models. For FAS900 it is also possible to copy image to CF on your PC. There should be some documents (both KB articles as well as Internet ones) describing how to do it. ... View more
