manual abstract
• On an HA system, users may run into difficulty deleting a volume group if they delete the failover
package containing the volume group without first deleting any file volumes on that volume group.
A volume group cannot be deleted without first removing all file volumes that it contains.
However, once a package has been removed, any associated file volumes will not be
visible/deletable. This may lead to some confusion, since the volume group will appear to be
empty, but the user will get an error message stating that file volumes must be removed before
the volume group can be deleted. A workaround is to create a package that includes the volume
group in question and then delete any file volumes that will now become visible. Then the
package and the volume group may be deleted.
• If the heartbeat path between the two cluster nodes is broken (cable removed, one of the nodes
shut down, etc.), the Command View NAS interface will become unresponsive.
• On an HA system, if CIFS is configured to use "shared mode" and a password is applied to a
share, the password will not be mirrored automatically on the other node in the cluster. To
ensure future access to the share when a failover occurs, set passwords ahead of time as
follows:
1. Start the failover package on the first cluster node.
2. Set the share password on that node.
3. Fail the package over to the second cluster node.
4. Set the share password on that node.
5. Fail the package back to the first cluster node.
Share passwords must be created in identical order on each node. Share-level security is not
suggested for an HA cluster.
Client Network Configuration Browser Issues
• Users of Windows 98 or Windows ME clients will need to refresh their Windows Explorer directory
view manually to see changes, additions, or deletions to files contained on the NAS 8000.
Windows 2000 and Windows NT users will not experience this problem.
• The client command showmount does not return the same mount paths as shown in the user
interface. The command will list much longer path names, but they are valid, mountable paths.
For user convenience, we map the longer paths returned by showmount to shorter, easier-to-
remember paths, in the user interface. Either path will mount correctly.
• When accessing the Command View NAS interface, the browser may display a "NOT BOUND IN
REGISTRY" exception, or may appear hung with a "Service not bound" exception displayed in
the Java console. (To view the Java console, click on the Java icon in the Windows system tray,
or in the task list.) This problem may be due to the use of a proxy when accessing the NAS 8000.
If so, configure your browser to bypass the proxy server for the NAS 8000. Another possible
cause is that the Command View NAS graphical user interface (GUI) services need to be
restarted on the NAS 8000 server. To do this, telnet to the NAS 8000 server and login as the
administrator. At the command prompt, type restartSystemGui. You should then be able to
access the Command View NAS interface.
• With the Java 1.4.0 plug-in and Netscape 4.7x, some dialog boxes in the Command View NAS
interface contain un-editable fields after changing the default settings of the dialog box.
-
For use with Netscape 4.7x, use the Java 1.3.1 plug-in.
-
When an un-editable field is encountered with the Netscape 4.7x/Java 1.4.0 plug-in
combination, click away from (outside of the vicinity of) and back to the problematic dialog
box to force a refresh of the Focus Manager.
• Command View NAS does not work on a Windows 2000 client that is running Windows
NetMeeting 3.0 with remote desktop sharing active. Command View NAS works fine with
NetMeeting, even if remote desktop sharing is enabled, as long as it is not active.
