This section contains changes that could not be included in NetApp documentation. The information in this section supersedes the information in any other NetApp documentation.
This release does not support ATM clusters with ATM FORE/IP Permanent Virtual Circuits (PVCs). PVCs are statically assigned. For each destination, you must establish (attach the IP layer to) a PVC explicitly and delete (detach the IP layer from) the PVC explicitly.
Note: Bringing a SPANS interface down does not flush incoming or outgoing PVCs. You must enter an explicit atmarp -d and atmarp -x command or wait until the filer reboots to flush PVCs.
A FORE/IP SPANS interface is supported for each ATM adapter and has the prefix fa. An interface with the prefix a now refers to the physical ATM adapter. Use the adapter interface to configure a LANE partner for clusters. You do not assign it an IP address.
If you plan to use CIFS, set the wafl.net_admin_priv_map_to_root option to On. This option maps the Windows NT administrator to root. If you do not set this option to On, you cannot perform administrative tasks from a Windows client.
Using the date or rdate command to make the date on a filer go backward when the SnapMirrorTM feature is running can cause snapshots to appear out of sequence. When this occurs, SnapMirror assumes that the older snapshot was created before the newer one, causing SnapMirror to ask for a new, complete transfer before proceeding with any incremental transfers.
To avoid this problem, turn SnapMirror off until the filer completes the date change, or change the date while SnapMirror is inactive.
