Powering down the NAS cluster solution

controllers

The file system may take a long time to clean the cache to

the storage either due to lot of data, or due to an

intermittent connection to the storage.
During the powering down stage, the issue could be due

to the OS kernel hanging on the controller or failing to

sync its state to the local drive.

Workaround

If the file system has stopped and if one of the controllers

are still up, you can physically power down the controller

using the power button.
If file system has not stopped, you must let it continue

working. The file system reaches a 10 minute timeout,

flushes its cache to the local controllers, and continues

the shutdown process.

NAS Container Security Violation

Description

NAS container security violation.

Cause

Selecting security style for a NAS container dictates the

dominant protocol to be used to set permissions on files in

this volume. NFS for UNIX security style volumes and CIFS

for NTFS security style volumes.
Consequently, this makes some operations invalid:

Setting UNIX permissions for a file in an NTFS

Security style container.

Setting UID/GID ownership for a file in an NTFS

Security style container.

Setting ACL for a file in a UNIX Security style

container.

Changing read-only flag for a file in a UNIX

Security style container.

Setting SID/GSID ownership for a file on UNIX

Security style container.

The NAS container security style must reflect the main

protocol used to access its files.

Workaround

If a user frequently needs to perform a cross-protocol

security related activity, split the data into separate NAS

containers based on the main access protocol.

Multiple Errors Received During File System Format

Description

You receive multiple errors during a file system format.

Cause

Probable causes may be:

Wrong SAN IPs are used in the Dell NAS Initial

Deployment Utility (IDU).

Wrong IQNs used while defining hosts in the

MDSM.
