Operating System/

 

Description

Component Affected

 

 

 

 

 

Solaris

On Solaris, by default, the /usr/lib/fs/nfs/nfsfind script is run

 

nightly by the cron daemon. This script contains a find command that

 

traverses any local file system that is exported (shared) via NFS. If the

 

running of this script is interfering with the performance of processes

 

accessing StorNext file systems, it can be modified to skip them. To do so,

 

add the following line to the find command in the script:

 

'(' -type d -fstype cvfs -prune ')' -o

 

The final find command should look like this:

 

find $dir '(' -type d -fstype cvfs -prune ')' -o -type f

 

-name .nfs\* -mtime +7 -mount -exec rm -f {} \;

 

 

Windows

Windows-based SNFS clients do not support symbolic links that point to a

 

file system outside of SNFS. Symbolic links are created either by a UNIX/

 

Linux client or by a Windows client (and are referred to as junctions).

 

 

 

If you are using the StorNext client software with Windows 2000, Windows

 

Server 2003, or Windows XP, turn off the Recycle Bin in the StorNext file

 

systems mapped on the Windows machine, so the file systems will work

 

properly.

 

1

On the Windows client machine, right-click the Recycle Bin icon on your

 

 

desktop and click Properties.

 

2

Click Global.

 

3

Click Configure drives independently.

 

4 Click Local Disk onto which you have mapped StorNext.

 

5

Select the Do not move files to the Recycle Bin. Remove files

 

 

immediately when deleted check box.

 

6

Click Apply and OK.

 

 

Windows

Virus-checking software, such as McAfee Virus Scan, can severely

 

degrade SNFS performance. If you have anti-virus software running on

 

your Windows 2000/Windows Server 2003/Windows XP machines, ADIC

 

recommends you configure the software so that it does NOT check SNFS.

 

 

All

Hot re-zoning of SAN fabrics is not supported.

 

 

 

StorNext is incompatible with CXFS.

 

 

 

StorNext File System is incompatible with third-party portmappers.
