Server for NFS

Hi,
I need to install the role: Server for NFS on my Exchange 2013 server. (The netbackup software needs it in order to backup and restore single mailbox.)
The Operating System is Windows 2012.
I installed the roll on the server and rebooted it. (there were no error messages at the installation process).
The problem is that the roll is not actually installed. (I can still mark it for installation after the reboot)
I installed another roll on the server and it was installed succesfully.

Hi Kobi,
Server for NFS are dependent on Portmap service. And portmap service can only run on port 111. In case port 111 is preoccupied by some other service, then our NFS will not get install.
For more detailed information, please refer to the article below:

  • New files and folders on a Linux client mounting a Windows 2012 Server for NFS share do not inherit Owner and Group when SetGID bit set

    Problem statement
    When I mount a Windows NFS service file share using UUUA and set the Owner and Group, and set the SetGID bit on the parent folder in a hierarchy. New Files and folders inside and underneath the parent folder do not inherit the Owner and Group permissions
    of the parent.
    I am given to understand from this Microsoft KnowledgeBase article (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/951716/en-gb) the problem is due to the Windows implmentation of NFS Services not supporting the Solaris SystemV or BSD grpid "Semantics"
    However the article says the same functionality can acheived by using ACE Inheritance in conjunction with changing the Registry setting for "KeepInheritance" to enable Inheritance propagation of the Permissions by the Windows NFS Services.
    1. The Precise location of the "KeepInheritance" DWORD key appears to have "moved" in  Windows Server 2012 from a Services path to a Software path, is this documented somewhere? And after enabling it, (or creating it in the previous
    location) the feature seems non-functional. Is there a method to file a Bug with Microsoft for this Feature?
    2. All of the references on demonstrating how to set an ACE to achieve the same result "currently" either lead to broken links on Microsoft technical websites, or are not explicit they are vague or circumreferential. There are no plain Examples.
    Can an Example be provided?
    3. Is UUUA compatible with the method of setting ACE to acheive this result, or must the Linux client mount be "Mapped" using an Authentication source. And could that be with the new Flat File passwd and group files in c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc
    and is there an Example available.

    I'm making some "major" progress on this problem.
    1. Apparently the "semantics" issue to honor SGID or grpid in NFS on the server side or the client side has been debated for some time. It also existed as of 2009 between Solaris nfs server and Linux nfs clients. The Linux community defaulted to declaring
    it a "Server" side issue to avoid "Race" conditions between simultaneous access users and the local file system daemons. The client would have to "check" for the SGID and reformulate its CREATE request to specify the Secondary group it would have to "notice"
    by which time it could have changed on the server. SUN declined to fix it.. even though there were reports it did not behave the same between nfs3 vs nfs4 daemons.. which might be because nfs4 servers have local ACL or ACE entries to process.. and a new local/nfs
    "inheritance" scheme to worry about honoring.. that could place it in conflict with remote access.. and push the responsibility "outwards" to the nfs client.. introducing a race condition, necessitating "locking" semantics.
    This article covers that discovery and no resolution - http://thr3ads.net/zfs-discuss/2009/10/569334-CR6894234-improved-sgid-directory-compatibility-with-non-Solaris-NFS-clients
    2. A much Older Microsoft Knowledge Based article had explicit examples of using Windows ACEs and Inheritance to "mitigate" the issue.. basically the nfs client "cannot" update an ACE to make it "Inheritable" [-but-] a Windows side Admin or Windows User
    [-can-] update or promote an existing ACE to "Inheritable"
    Here are the pertinent statements -
    "In Windows Services for UNIX 2.3, you can use the KeepInheritance registry value to set inheritable ACEs and to make sure that these ACEs apply to newly created files and folders on NFS shares."
    "Note About the Permissions That Are Set by NFS Clients
    The KeepInheritance option only applies ACEs that have inheritance enabled. Any permissions that are set by an NFS client will
    only apply to that file or folder, so the resulting ACEs created by an NFS client will
    not have inheritance set."
    "So
    If you want a folder's permissions to be inherited to new subfolders and files, you must set its permissions from the Windows NFS server because the permissions that are set by NFS clients only apply to the folder itself."
    http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;321049
    3. I have set up a Windows 2008r2 NFS server and mounted it with a Redhat Enteprise Linux 5 release 10 x86_64 server [Oct 31, 2013] and so far this does appear to be the case.
    4. In order to mount and then switch user to a non-root user to create subdirectories and files, I had to mount the NFS share (after enabling Anonymous AUTH_SYS mapping) this is not a good thing, but it was because I have been using UUUA - Unmapped Unix
    User Access Mapping, which makes no attempt to "map" a Unix UID/GID set by the NFS client to a Windows User account.
    To verify the Inheritance of additional ACEs on new subdirectories and files created by a non-root Unix user, on the Windows NFS server I used the right click properties, security tab context menu, then Advanced to list all the ACEs and looked at the far
    Column reflecting if it applied to [This folder only, or This folder and Subdirectories, or This folder and subdirectories and files]
    5. All new Subdirectories and files createdby the non-root user had a [Non-Inheritance] ACE created for them.
    6. I turned a [Non-Inheritance] ACE into an [Inheritance] ACE by selecting it then clicking [Edit] and using the Drop down to select [This folder, subdirs and files] then I went back to the NFS client and created more subdirs and files. Then back to the
    Windows NFS server and checked the new subdirs and folders and they did Inherit the Windows NFS server ACE! - However the UID/GID of the subdirs and folders remained unchanged, they did not reflect the new "Effective" ownership or group membership.
    7. I "believe" because I was using UUUA and working "behind" the UID/GID presentation layer for the NFS client, it did not update that presentation layer. It might do that "if" I were using a Mapping mechanism and mapped UID/GID to Windows User SIDs and
    Group SIDs. Windows 2008r2 no longer has a "simple" Mapping server, it does not accept flat text files and requires a Schema extension to Active Directory just to MAP a windows account to a UID/GID.. a lot of overhead. Windows Server 2012 accepts flat text
    files like /etc/passwd and /etc/group to perform this function and is next on my list of things to see if that will update the UID/GID based on the Windows ACE entries. Since the Local ACE take precedence "over" Inherited ACEs there could be a problem. The
    Inheritance appears to be intended [only] to retain Administrative rights over user created subdirs and files by adding an additional ACE at the time of creation.
    8. I did verify from the NFS client side in Linux that "Even though" the UID/GID seem to reflect the local non-root user should not have the ability to traverse or create new files, the "phantom" NFS Server ACEs are in place and do permit the function..
    reconciling the "view" with "reality" appears problematic, unless the User Mapping will update "effective" rights and ownership in the "view"

  • Server for NFS deletes the partially copied file after failover

    Hello, 
    I found the strange behaviour in Server for NFS in the microsoft foc cluster. 
    I have a foc cluster of two nodes(windows server 2k12r2) and server for nfs role is installed on both. now I did mount the export from the client(windows server 2k12r2) where client for nfs role is installed;
    and a large file copying from the clients local drive to the mounted export is started.
    Now during this copying operation I did switch the export to second node(moved it using the failover cluster manager wizard). and what I found is the copying interrupts with
    error message "there is problem accessing file path" and on retry the copying starts all over again, I mean if the 50% was copied previously then
    after retry it will start from 0%.
    I watched the system events on second node with the "procmon" and I found; after the disk gets attached to the second node, the delete operation is get called for this file.
    Now what I need to know is why this delete is been called and who made this called. In the stack of the delete operation I could track the nfssvr.sys but not sure what attributes of that file made it to call the
    delete. 

    Hi,
    It takes us some time to create a failover cluster for testing.
    We tried to copy a large folder which contains many files, and a large VHD file we created.
    The result is the same - it will not restart the copy after failover. Thus as you said it is not caused by design and it should be an issue on your side which causes a Delete and redo the copy.
    Is there any application or specific network settings could terminate a disconnected copy process? Currently I do not have much information about this. 
    Edit: I noticed that it is NFS share and in our test we are using SMB share. Will do the test again to see if any difference. 

  • How to Configuring case sensitivity for NFS on Windows Server 2012

    Configure Case Sensitivity for File and Folder Names
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc725747.aspx
    To configure case sensitivity for file and folder names using the command prompt             
    Open a command prompt.
    To enable case sensitivity, type:
    nfsadmin server [ComputerName] config casesensitivelookups=yes
    But, "casesensitivelookups" is removed in Windows 2012 version.
    Help Me~

    Hi,
    Sorry for the delayed response.
    According to the following article, we still can use
    nfsadmin to configure case sensitivity for Server for NFS in Windows Server 2012.
    Nfsadmin
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc771599.aspx
    Note:We
    need to disable Windows kernel case-insensitivity in order for Server for NFS to support case-sensitive file names. We can disable Windows kernel case-insensitivity by clearing the following registry key to 0:
    HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\kernel
    DWORD “obcaseinsensitive”
    Hope it helps.

  • Server 2012 NFS - 10 minutes to resume after failover?

    I've got a Server 2012 Core cluster running an HA file server role with the new NFS service. The role has two associated clustered disks. When I fail the role between nodes, it takes 10-12 minutes for the NFS service to come back online - it'll sit in 'Online
    Pending' for several minutes, then transition to 'Failed', then finally come 'Online'. I've looked at the NFS event logs from the time period of failover and they look slightly odd. For example, in a failover at 18:41, I see this in the Admin log:

    Does anyone have any thoughts as to where I could start looking to work out what's happening here? Is there any tracing that can be enabled for the NFS services to indicate what's going on?
    Thanks in advance!

    I was able to get some downtime this afternoon so I tried
    deleting the NFS share in question and recreating it
    deleting all the NFS shares on the clustered file server (thus removing the NFS Server resource) and recreating them
    deleting all the NFS shares and the ._nfs folder from all the associated drives and recreating them
    deleting the clustered file server altogether, shutting down the cluster, starting it back up and recreating the file server.
    None of these made any difference - this particular NFS resource still took about 10 minutes to return to service. I'm therefore supposing it's some aspect of the disk or the data on it that NFS is taking a long time to enumerate, but it's annoying that
    I don't have any visibility into what's going on. I might try asking this same question in the MS partner forums to see if I get any answers there...

  • ZFS 7320c and T4-2 server mount points for NFS

    Hi All,
    We have an Oracle ZFS 7320c and T4-2 servers. Apart from the on-board 1 GB Ethernet, we also have a 10 Gbe connectivity between the servers and the storage
    configured as 10.0.0.0/16 network.
    We have created a few NFS shares but unable to mount them automatically after reboot inside Oracle VM Server for SPARC guest domains.
    The following document helped us in configuration:
    Configure and Mount NFS shares from SUN ZFS Storage 7320 for SPARC SuperCluster [ID 1503867.1]
    However, we can manually mount the file systems after reaching run level 3.
    The NFS mount points are /orabackup and /stage and the entries in /etc/vfstab are as follows:

  • Oracle VM Server for Sparc

    I am going ahead with the Oracle VM server for Sparc in the next 6 weeks.  Just one question I want to be sure of - do I put the OS of the base machine in the NetApp and NFS mount it or the base machine OS on local disk  and all the LDOMs OS on NFS mounted on NetApp.  I want to create a pool of two machines one with  2 T5-2  servers in it and another 4 T5-220 servers in it.  My intention is to move LDOMS from one machine to the other within a pool, depending on the load.

    Thanks Marcel.  Sorry for the delayed reply as I was away.  Yes, I did mean the control domain, but I also worried that NFS mount on NetApp may not work for LDOMs, as I read somewhere that Solaris does not support containers on NFS.  I am a bit puzzled over here, as this means we may have to go for iSCSI route for all the VMs.  iSCSI is untested in our Solaris environment, although heavily used on other things on NetApps.  We also don't have any options but to use NetApps, as NetApps are being used in our two datacentres and it would be ideal for DR scenario. 
    Regards

  • Enough bandwith to usa a NAS server for itune & stream via Airport Express?

    Hi,
    i posted this question in the itunes forum, but got zero feedback. i was hoping someone here could possibly answer my question :
    I was thinking of getting a ByteCC LANDisk NAS to use as an itunes music 'jukebox' server for 2 macs (a G5 and a macbook). I have a Airport Express that i'd like to use to stream music to my living room stereo via itunes,
    My question is is there enough bandwith to stream from the NAS server to the macs, and then to also stream the audio to the living room stereo via the airport express at the same time?
    I'm sure someone must've atempted this set up
    Any help or info is apreciated!

    This works. I have a WD Netcenter (320G) which I store my main iTunes library on (holding down the command key when starting iTunes allows you to chose which library you want to use). I'm not using an Airport base (D-Link and now a Zyxel) and I can stream music AND video no problem - all my movies are on there too and they play fine through Front Row.
    Oh and I usually mount it as nfs rather then smb - handy little apple script for this which I run as an app (when are Apple going to bring out a proper location manager that automounts networked drives etc based on where you are?!!!).
    Have fun.

  • FPolicy server for CMode

    We have been using our 7-mode fpolicy server for getting read/write requests on CIFS/NFS operations. We need to support 8.2 CMode and the legacy registration process using FP_Registration and receiving requests using FP_ScreenRequest2() doesn't work. I downloaded the 8.2 and 8.3 netapp manageability SDK, but I can't find any fpolicy server sample.
    Is there any sample or a comprehensive documentation available on this subject?

    FPolicy documentation in the SDK is available to software development partners only to my knowledge.  I've been trying (as a customer) to get some of the same documentation myself for a long time and despite various channels have never been successful. Same applies to the official SnapDiff SDK documentation. Bob 

  • Client for NFS fails to restart - Event ID: 16387 - Windows(R) failed a request to initialize the Network File System (NFS) redirector

    I have seen this issue out there in a few threads but a definitive solution has not been posted by Microsoft that I can find. So here is the simple answer. The long answer why this doesn't work on a default install of MSNFS is going to have to come from
    Microsoft and should be in the form of a hotfix.
    Problem Description
    On boot, Client for NFS starts and remains running. If an attempt is made to restart the service from the MMC or nfsadmin, an error occurs and nfsclnt fails to start.
    Event log error:
    ==================================================================
    Log Name:      Application
    Source:        NfsClnt
    Date:          7/7/2011 2:39:51 PM
    Event ID:      16387
    Task Category: None
    Level:         Error
    Keywords:      Classic
    User:          N/A
    Computer:      myserver
    Description:
      Windows(R) failed a request to initialize the Network File System (NFS) redirector
    <[d:\w7rtm\base\fs\remotefs\nfs\client\nfsclient\service.c:199] : 0: The operation completed successfully.
    >.
      Client for NFS cannot start.
      Windows may be low on system resources.  Try increasing available system resources by closing programs, then start Client for NFS manually.
    ==================================================================
    PROBLEM CAUSED BY: When shutting down Client for NFS using the Services GUI, Client for NFS Redirector is not shut down
    SOLUTION: Stop NFS Redirector - 'sc stop NfsRdr' - Then start NFS client service - 'nfsadmin start client'
    Use 'nfsadmin client stop' to correctly shut down both the Client for NFS service and the Client for NFS Redirector.
    'Network File System (NFS) redirector' is actually "Client for NFS Redirector" and not listed as a service even though "Client for NFS" requires it.  
    Using 'sc', details on the hidden NfsRdr system component can be queried and then used to stop the redirector so that nfsclnt.exe can reload it on start up using the Services GUI.
    C:\Windows\System32>sc GetDisplayName NfsRdr
    [SC] GetServiceDisplayName SUCCESS
    Name = Client for NFS Redirector
    C:\Windows\System32>sc qdescription NfsRdr
    [SC] QueryServiceConfig2 SUCCESS
    SERVICE_NAME: NfsRdr
    DESCRIPTION:  Kernel-side part of Client for NFS. Enables a Windows based computer to access NFS server shares

  • Recently backing up my ipad onto my macbook, which is the backup server for all of my gadgets.  This includes all my photos and tons of music.  The macbook said it could not backup the ipad because there was insufficient disc space to do so. What now?

    I have a macbook operating OSX10.6.7.  Recently backing up my ipad which had lots of photos from a recent vacation.  I use this laptop as the backup server for all of my gadgets so it has thousands of photos and tons of music.  It just told me that it couldn't back up the ipad bc there wasn't enough disc space.  I was afraid that this would happen eventually.  What next?  Newer laptop with more space?  I'm not sure what files I could sacrifice to free up more space as most of these are important.

    What size hard drive do you have in your MacBook? The cheapest options are, a larger internal hard drive, or an external drive. Or you could get a cheap desktop PC and network to it for storage. I've got one that lives in the hall with 3 Terabytes (That's 3000gb) of storage.

  • Old school with CS2.  Haven't used in a while and am unable to use the program as it says my serial number is invalid. Customer service tells me the server for CS2 has been shut down.  Then they sent me here for help.  Does anyone have any advice?

    I don't have a clue what I am doing with this.  Here is my discussion with Customer Service:
    Naresh: Hello! Welcome to Adobe Customer Service.
    Naresh: Hi Mary.
    Naresh: I understand you have been getting invalid serial number, am I right?
    Mary Vance: Hi
    Mary Vance: yes
    Naresh: Please provide me with the serial number, Mary.
    Mary Vance: I provided my serial number here
    Naresh: Thank you for the serial number.
    Naresh: Please allow me 2-3 minutes while I check your serial number.
    Mary Vance: no problem
    Naresh: Thank you.
    Naresh: Thank you for being online.
    Naresh: I would like to inform you that the server for CS2 products have been shut down by adobe since then you are not able to install the product.
    Naresh: However, I will provide you the link to download CS2 application. Please visit the following link.
    Mary Vance: will this allow me to reinstall Photoshop?
    Naresh: Yes, Mary.
    Mary Vance: ok...what is that link?
    Naresh: Please clcik here to download.
    Mary Vance: thank you....trying it now
    Naresh: You are welcome.
    Naresh: I will also provide you the link for further information regarding the installation of CS2 products.
    Mary Vance: the download doesn't have anything regarding installation
    Naresh: Please click for the information.
    Naresh: I am sorry for providing wrong link.
    Naresh: Please click here to download.
    Naresh: The 3rd link is for the download of CS2 Photoshop.
    Naresh: Were you able to view the download link, Mary?
    Mary Vance: what file in that download is supposed to help me?
    Mary Vance: the first and 3rd link were the same
    Mary Vance: when trying to load from my software, I get the message saying my serial number is not valid. All I need is a serial number that works. Is that going to be possible?
    Naresh: Mary, Adobe has disabled the activation server for CS2 applications, including Acrobat 7 and Audition 3, because of a technical issue.
    Naresh: So you will have to download the software from the above link.
    Naresh: May I know in what OS you are trying to install the software?
    Mary Vance: the link sends me to a CS2 help package
    Mary Vance: windows 7
    Naresh: I am sorry you will not be able to install the CS2 application on Windows 7 since it does not support CS2 version.
    Mary Vance: I have had on here for a few years...why all of a sudden would it not work? Illustrator is fine.
    Naresh: Okay.
    Naresh: You can try downloading the software.
    Mary Vance: was the original link that you sent me suppose to allow me to download Photoshop?
    Mary Vance: I did try and got the message that the serial number is invalid. Is there any way to get around this or should I throw it away?
    Naresh: May I know whether you uninstalled the product.
    Naresh: ?
    Mary Vance: I did uninstall Photoshop only. Then I tried reinstalling Photoshop only and got the message about the serial number.
    Naresh: I check and see that it seems to be a technical issue, I request you to please post your query to the forums so that you will get the resolution from our expertise and I'll provide you the link to visit the forums.
    Naresh: Please click here to visit the forums.
    Mary Vance: I guess I will try that.
    Naresh: Yes, please.
    Naresh: Is there anything else I can help you with?
    Mary Vance: I don't see where you helped me with this yet, so I guess not!
    Naresh: I am sorry for the inconvenience.
    Naresh: Thank you for contacting Adobe.  We are available 7 days a week, 24 hours a day. Goodbye!
    Any help would be appreciated.

    CS2 is very old and reached its "end of life" a while back.  So probably won't run on modern operating systems.  If you can still run it, you'll need to uninstall what you have and re-install with the download link below to activate it.

  • Deployer Installation: Failed to validate Release Management Server for Team Foundation Server 2013

    Attempting to install the deployer on a machine and getting the below error.  Not sure what that means, out of turn error or what actually occurs at this step, validating release management server,  during the configuration piece.  The user,
    that we set for the service was validated fine.  The user is an service account in the TFS RM Server, is  an admin on the local box as well.
    I am able to get into the TFS RM Server through the client just fine. I can hit the TFS RM UI just fine as well.
    Curious what would not allow the deployer to complete as mentioned below.
    Any help is appreciated.
