70TB are deleted but not showed in the Netapp

Hi,

I have a problem, we have a 455TB volume that is at 95% of the capacity. No snapshots are cofigured, just snapmirror. 70TB of files have been deleted from volume from a lixux server, but the 70TB are not showed in the Netapp. I think this will take a few hours to be shown in the Netapp or i am wrong?

Individually resize Flexgroup constituent

Hi All,

 

I have run into snapmirror transfer errors due to the destination is being full.

However the destination volume is not full, rather one of the two constituents is:

 

> volume show -is-constituent true
Vserver Volume Aggregate State Type Size Available Used%
--------- ------------ ------------ ---------- ---- ---------- ---------- -----

 

<--snip-->

aggr_01_2 online DP 100TB 16KB 99%

aggr_01_1 online DP 60TB 20.59TB 65%

 

When I increased the size of the Volume ontap added the additional space to the constituent that was not full while leaving the constituent that was full in the full state.

 

volume modify -vserver name -volume My_1_vault -size +20TB

 

<---snip--->


aggr_01_2 online DP 100TB 16KB 99%    <<<   NO increase

aggr_01_1 online DP 100.00TB 60.59TB 39%  <<< 40TB increase

 

Is there any way to increase one specific constituent? 

I was thinking that I could add a third constituent but it would still leave the full constituent full.

 

Thank you for any ideas to solve this!

Network Share storage limit

Good Morning All,

 

Just looking for a bit of an clarification here. We have a NetAppAFF-A150 running a CIFS/SMB SVM serving some windows network shares for us. Each of our shares has been given their own volume which we can scale up as needed. One of our volumes has been provided with 750gb of space. When looking at the share for the volume it is showing as ~75% filled at 563/750 gb used. However when I actually highlight all of my subfolders within the share and check their space used via properties, it only comes out to about 411gb. My initial thought was that snapshots must be making up the difference, however then I remembered that snapshots are just "pointers" to where the data is so they shouldn't take up much space (at least I think so? Please correct me if I'm wrong!). I just wanted to do my due diligence and see if any of you saw this offset in storage space as normal, or if it is something I should do further digging on. Thank you!

I have  a script that can quiesce or abort on a single relationship  (Invoke-NcSnapmirrorAbort...or Quiesce)

My goal is to have  is to Invoke_ .... Abort on all volumes (active replication sessions).  Can I supply a global value  to  DESTINATION to acccomplish this...or do i have to run the abort against each relationship?  Or how? thanks

We want to automate a "kill" for all active sessions!

 

Heres the command syntax for abort ..hope you can read it.

File System Analytics RBAC

Hello fellow admins! I want to create a role that allows login to System Manager + full File System Analytics functionality but no other rights. I am having difficulty and could use some advice!

 

The first KB below describes creating a role like the one I want, but it doesn't work. To simplify, I gave the role "All File System Analytics operations" rights, using /*/ for the UUID. I created the domain account with the http, ontapi, and ssh applications. When trying to log in, I just got the spinning 'wait' icon with no error and no end in sight.

 

The second KB mentions the new built-in admin-no-fsa role which is actually to restrict FSA, however I thought it might help to see what it does so I could tweak a copy. I logged in this time but had too many admin rights, plus  the two areas of FSA that should have been read only were not visible.

 

Any recommendations?

Ransomware protection: How do I find out what triggered the alert?

$

Hello, we are testing ARW on test volume and get alerts like:

"callhome.arw.activity.seen [ALERT]

Description: This message occurs when ransomware activity is detected. To protect the data, a Snapshot copy has been created, which can be used to restore the original data. If your system is configured to do so, it generates and transmits an AutoSupport (or "call home") message to NetApp technical support and to the configured destinations. Successful delivery of an AutoSupport message significantly improves problem determination and resolution."

 

Now how do I find out what caused this alert?? I've checked system manager's vol-security page, AIQ and even went to activeiq.netapp.com to check the autosupport it sent as the sections are readable from there. Absolutely no information what caused this ALERT...we have on-prem BlueXp and it doesn't support ARW.

 

So where can I see what happened and caused snapshot creation and autosupport?

Does reloading occur when firmware is applied to the FAS2650A?

$

Hello,

 

I am about to apply firmware to my FAS2650A. Is reloading mandatory?

The reason I am asking this is,
My environment uses NetApp as external storage for VMware, and due to a rule with the client, I can't stop the parcel (it would require an adjustment to stop it)
So, if I reload, the parcel will be down and it will be a critical issue.

 

Thankyou

How to know how much time command takes to finish on CLI.

Hello community team, 

 

I'm new to this community and started recently interacting with netapp server cli to run below task. 

 

Here is my simple task.

1) we've huge GB of data to purge everyday like 30 or 40 GB based on application usage. 

2) Our application installed on shared mount of netapp storage on linux server. 

3) when we are trying to delete from linux server using regular commands it's taking like 30 hours to delete. 

4) so I'm trying to use delete directories rapidly option to see how much time it takes to delete directories. 

https://docs.netapp.com/us-en/ontap/flexgroup/fast-directory-delete-asynchronous-task.html

 

5) Above option is asynchronous and i can't tell how much time it takes to run above command. 

 

6) I can check status of Job using "event log show" command 

 

So my question: is there any way to tell how much time it takes to run delete command on netapp cli? 

 

Thanks in advance. 

View Storage Accelerator

Hi every one,

I have a question about enabling  View Storage Accelerator  in VMware Horizon. In some vendors like Pure Storage says: "Because Pure Arrays have lots of IOPS at very low latency, we don't need the extra layer of caching at the host" and Recommends to disable this feature. I want to Know, what is recommendation of NetApp? (Disabling or Enabling)

Best regards,
