I understand you have problem connecting Win2k3 with 11i, You need to install Windows 2003 Resource kit for this,

I believe he is asking the following question:

"In the transmitting of indices by means of CIFS Mount, crashes the Script if 1000 indices were transmitted. Did HP CROSS knows 11i>> windows 2003 who advice??"

Maybe you need to tune your smb.conf parameter

max open files = xxxx

Ulrich,

Eric from the HP CIFS Client lab here. Can you please provide a precise description of how you encounter this problem?

For example, I just created a directory on my local HP-UX host and filled it with 1024 files of various sizes; then I cd'ed into this directory and did:

cp * /mountpoint/bigdir

where /mountpoint is the mountpoint of a share on a Windows 2000 system.

By giving us a complete description, we can attempt to reproduce the problem and provide an explanation or a fix if there is a bug. BTW, when I performed to operation in my example above, it worked fine, so if that's what you are doing, and the problem happens consistently, we need to figure out what's going on.

Thanks,
Eric

Hi Eric,
i have send to you an attachment. We make it with a little script.
HAMGUJMPS003 ist Windows 2003 Server
usapp0 is a HP-UX 11.11 Server

We start the script over cron on usapp0. There we make a cifsmount on HAMGUJMS003 and send the Files to the mounted Files on uarch0
The last two days, we have only 886 and 740 Files with no problem. Over 1000 it crashed.

Best Regards
Ulli

Hello, Ulrich,

At what point in the script does the failure occur? I presume it is at the 'mv' command, inside the loop "for ii in $COPYFILES".

If so, I suggest appending to the command as follows:

mv $FROM_DIR/$i/$ii . >> $PROT 2>&1
ret=$?
echo "$(date) $ii: mv returned $ret" >> $PROT

If the additional info that this places in $PROT does not provide data to help you fix the problem, uncomment the following logLevels in the cifs client configuration file (/etc/opt/cifsclient/cifsclient.cfg):

cifsTrace
nfsTrace
smbSequence

Do not uncomment any other logLevels. Rerun the script and post the cifsclient logfile in a message here. The logfile is /var/opt/cifsclient/debug/client-log.

Please note:

1. The cifs client logfile will only be of value if it catches the failure. You can compare the timestamp in the cifs client logfile with that in $PROT to verify.

2. The cifs client logfile will produce a lot of output (you may see two files, one with a ".prev" suffix), so when the experiment is complete, remember to comment out the three logLevels.

3. It may be necessary for you to open a support call with HP if this gets too complex to handle in this forum.

Thanks, and good luck,
