After repairing a volume in the NAS Manager,

one or more disks show as "missing" in Array

Manager.

The repair does not actually delete the

disks, although the disks are displayed as

missing.

Take no action. Your NAS

system is still operating

correctly.

Table 9-5. UNIX and Red Hat Linux

Issue

Possible cause

Resolution

I cannot access

the Terminal

Services

Advanced Client

through the

NAS Manager

from my Linux

client system

using the

Netscape

browser.

The Terminal Services Advanced Client is not supported by the Linux operating

system and does not work with the NAS Manager.

Use a Windows

client system to

manage the NAS

system through a

Terminal Services

Advanced Client

session.

While updating

client access to

an NFS share,

the No Access

option is

displayed, but

the Root option

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 involves a System Volume Information

directory created by Microsoft Index Server. The NFS service does not have access

to this directory and returns an error message 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 by default is Everyone with Full Control. When an NFS client

creates a directory or a file in this directory (mounted share), 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 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 yourself 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.

When updating

client access to

an NFS share,

the All

Machines

The NAS Manager might reset the All Machines client group to Read-Write when

there are no clients that have read-only or read-write access.

Add a client that

has read-write or

read-only access,

and then set the All

Machines client
