Client through
the NAS
Manager from
my Linux client
system using
the Netscape
browser.
Advanced Client
session.
I have just
changed the IP
address of my
system, and
now I cannot
administrate it
through
PowerVault
NAS Manager.
Although the IP address changed, your local host is still trying to communicate
with the system using the old IP address.
For Linux only,
close Netscape 6.1
or later. Restart the
PowerVault NAS
Manager.
While updating
client access
to an NFS
share, the
option to
select No
Access is
displayed, but
the option to
select Root is
not.
Only the All Machines category options are displayed during this update.
Add the
appropriate clients,
and then select
OK. After you have
added the client,
navigate back to
the NFS tab for
this share and
select the correct
options for the
individual Client
Machines.
Every time I
try to obtain a
directory
listing from an
NFS client on
the root of a
system
volume, I get
an error
message, such
as,
Permission
Denied
.
The problem you are experiencing has to do with a System Volume
Information directory, created by Microsoft Index Server. The NFS service does
not have access to this directory and returns an error to the client when trying to
list its properties.
This issue only occurs when sharing the root of a drive letter.
Ignore this error.
The System
Volume
Information
directory is not
used by NFS clients
or your system by
default.
Sometimes I
am unable to
delete folders
that have been
used and that
are shared to
an NFS client.
This is a situation that occurs with NFS discretionary access lists (DACLs) and
inheritance. When the folder to be shared is created, the only access control entry
(ACE) created is by default Everyone with Full Control. When an NFS client
creates a directory or a file in this directory (mounted share), the Services for
UNIX (SFU) creates a new DACL that replaces the inherited Everyone with Full
Control ACE. This DACL contains an Everyone ACE with the appropriate UNIX
file creation access and may possibly contain two other ACEs for the mapped user
and group. If this happens, the administrator of the Windows client cannot delete
the file or directory unless that administrator takes ownership through the
Windows system and changes the access.
As the
administrator, use
a Windows client
system to take
ownership and
change the access
to allow you to
delete the share
folders.
When you delete
the NFS share
folders, ensure that
there are no open
file handles for the
share. If you are
unsure, delete the
share, and then
restart NFS.
