make_net_recovery

[eran bawer]

After transfer /ignite/archives directory from EMC to NETAPPS , the customer get an error while do make_net_recovery :

Unable to mount or write ignite_server:/ignite/archives/client_name.

the questions are :

1. Is NETAPPS is supported by Ignite , becuase now the archives directory is already in NFS mount point directory ?

2. If the answer is yes , how to change the configuration files ?

Dear eran,

Make sure the write permission is given to the share.

In /etc/exports in the concerned share give
-o root=host1:host2

and run

#exportfs -av

to re-export the share.

you can also try mounting the nfs mount from OS and try writing something in it to confirm the permissions.

With Regards,

Siva.

as such ignite dosent have any compatiblity issues.

It is a problem with nfs export on server side.

Try as,

NFS Server:

# exportfs -iv -o root=

Example:
# exportfs -iv -o root=netapps /ignite/archives/client_name

NFS Client:

# mkdir /ignite/client_name
# mount nfsserver:/ignite/archives/client_name /ignite/client_name

If you are not getting any errors then you able to access the mount.

when you are getting errors then post that here.

#1) Ignite doesn't know this is a Netapps deive or EMC. Since it is of NFS, it will be treated as a generic directory.

#2) Do you have write permission to that particular directory? If not, do so.

what are you getting for this,

# showmount -ad

It has to say the mounted file system information on NFS client side.

On server side,

# showmount -e

has to say that exported file system information.

check syslog.log file for any errors.
