Re: Can't ssh to the cluster / Can't access my cluster...

$

Hello ,

 

System Manager is on the ONTAP system in 8.3+, so you just need to browse to the cluster management IP address.

 

I have previously encountered issues when using any desktop virtualization (VMware, VirtualBox, etc.) and a VPN, where the administrator does not allow local routing, instead all traffic must go through the VPN.

 

Beyond that, double check the network settings in VMware and ensure that they are configured correctly.  It's been a long time since I used VMware Player, so I don't know much about it at this point...  Does your desktop have an IP address on the same subnet as the simulator(s)?  If they are NATed, do you need to forward a port?  

 

Are you able to ping from the simulator to something else on your network?  Can the nodes ping eachother?  Use the network ping command to check from each node.

Good morning, today in the morning my FAS2552 reported the following problem at boot:

 

Boot Loader version 4.3
Copyright (C) 2000-2003 Broadcom Corporation.
Portions Copyright (C) 2002-2014 NetApp, Inc. All Rights Reserved.

CPU Type: Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU           C3528  @ 1.73GHz


Starting AUTOBOOT press Ctrl-C to abort...

File system not recognized (errcode=-29)


Trying to boot from alternative path:fat://boot0/X86_64/kernel/primary.krn

Autoboot the image failed. File system not recognized (-29)

 

Any advice? 

 

Regards.

Open case with NetApp support - boot device replacement is required.

Re: Is qtree a "file system" boundary from hard link's perspective?

Hi Justin,

 

thanks for the info. The problem is I am migrating data from Isilon and it has alot of hard links. I have to create qtrees to keep the quota setups similar to the Isilon so there are many qtrees under the volume. When I copy files from Isilon to NetApp, it fails with "invalid cross-device link" error as you described because the hard links go across qtrees. I doubt there is a way to work around this. Any suggestions?

 

Thanks,

Apologie . These are the versions

 

Current Version : 8.2.3P3 7-Mode

 

Target Version : 8.2.4P4 7-Mode

 

so, does set autoboot true will fix this

Autoboot is already set to true, but apparently default image was not set to new version. This is usually indication of not perorming clean shutdown during update. I would suggest doing update once more and carefully following procedure in this case, in particular, make sure to perform clean shutdown or takeover after installing new version.

How can i automate a change on a scheduled snapmirror?

I have to modify a snapmirror, i need the synchronization is executed at another time on the weekend. How can I automate this?

 

We are on Data Ontap 8.2.1 clustered mode.

Hi,

 

There are a few options and considerations. You can:

 

  1. Create a script which imports the dataONTAP powershell module, connects to your cluster and uses the "Set-NcSnapmirror" CmdLet to modify it.
  2. Create a WFA workflow which performs the same action as option 1

The advantage of using OnCommand Workflow Automation (WFA) is that it can manage the schedule and credentials although technically you could easily achieve the same result using windows task scheduler. One other point to consider is any potential difference in timezones from the server you would be running the automation from and the cluster you are connecting to. This is especially important when working with geographically diverse systems to ensure you schedule your automation at the appropriate time relative to non-business hours at the destination system.

 

What exactly are you trying to automate? Throttling the bandwidth used by snapmirror during production hours and then increasing it during non-production hours or a pause and resume?

 

NAME
    Set-NcSnapmirror

SYNOPSIS
    Changes one or more parameters of a SnapMirror relationship.


SYNTAX
    Set-NcSnapmirror [-DestinationCluster <String>] -DestinationVserver <String> -DestinationVolume <String> [-SourceCluster <String>] [-SourceVserver <String>] [-SourceVolume <String>] [-Schedule <String>] [-Tries <Int32>]
    [-MaxTransferRate <Int64>] [-Policy <String>] [-Controller <NcController[]>] [-PipelineVariable <String>] [-ZapiRetryCount <Int32>] [<CommonParameters>]

    Set-NcSnapmirror [-Destination] <String> [[-Source] <String>] [-Schedule <String>] [-Tries <Int32>] [-MaxTransferRate <Int64>] [-Policy <String>] [-Controller <NcController[]>] [-PipelineVariable <String>] [-ZapiRetryCount <Int32>]
    [<CommonParameters>]

If throttling the bandwidth is an option then i'd suggest leaving your snapmirror running and limiting it to a very low transfer rate using the -MaxTransferRate during bussiness hours then setting it zero during non-production hours to utilised the maximum available bandwidth for your snapmirror transfer.

 

-MaxTransferRate <Int64>
    Specifies the upper bound, in bytes per second, at which data is transferred between clusters.  The default is unlimited (0) which permits the SnapMirror relationship to fully utilize the available network bandwidth.  This
    option does not affect load-sharing mirrors and other SnapMirror relationships confined to a single cluster.

    Required?                    false
    Position?                    named
    Default value
    Accept pipeline input?       true (ByPropertyName)
    Accept wildcard characters?  false

Hope that gives you a few ideas.

 

/Matt

Hello!

 

I have the same issue after upgrade cDOT MetroCluster system from 8.3.x to 9.1. 

Did you solve this issue?

 

Thank you!

Are you using Tiebreaker 1.2? Can you please ensure that the system has https as well as ssh access to the cluster?

Upgrade Ontap 8.3 to Ontap 9 root-data-data partition

As far as I know root-data-data is used only for SSD disks.

How did you reinitialize controllers? You need to remove ownership from all disks (and current partitions) before starting it.

Re: cdot snapvault setup and 7 year retention

As we don't want to keep monthly or yearly on the primary I set the retention to 0 ( or should this be 1 ??)

 

I'm afraid you have to keep 1 on the primary. 

You probably wont be able to allow space to keep 1 yearly, suggest using monthly instead.

This was supposed to be resolved in a later version of ontap.

I reinitialize the controllers without removing ownership and partitions.

 

 

 

So next step would be booting in maintanance mode and removing ownership and partitions ( if the exists ) and start a new initialize ( Option 4)  ?
