XSAN volumes mount RW, but ROOT is locked out.

I am mounting several clients to the XSAN, and the volumes mount as RW through the admin, and the get info shows them as RW mounts, but additional info says 'you can only read' and there is a small lock illustration on the drive icon after mounting. Using terminal ADMIN, I can not write to the root of the drive, but previously created folders work as RW. Using one of the volumes as the FCP scratch disk, and it will not work, but use the folder inside the volume works. Have tried resetting permissions, restarting the volume(s) and the controller. Nothing has helped. I did have one client with possibly corrupted data (bad HDD) that was crashing at the time of this beginning. Any thought will be appriciated, as I have not been able to find anything on it yet.

I would say that read only access at the root level of your XSan volume would be preferable, at least it is in the environment that we are working. This prevents anyone but an administrator from placing folders at the root level, meaning that you can control affinity assignment, whereas any local user that would create a folder on the root level would have no affinity assignment. In our environment, where we're working with multiple shows at a time and 52 TB of total storage, affinity assignments become absolutely crucial for file management.

    This is a user-to-user forum and most people will post on here if they have problems. You very rarely get people posting to say there update went smooth. The fact is the vast majority of Mountain Lion users will not be experiencing any major problems with the OS, or maybe with apps which are not compatible, but thats hardly Apple's fault if developers don't update their apps.

  • Root account locked out after 3 login attempts

    I've connected to a 280R (Solaris 9) machine through the console (null modem cable). After trying 3 failed login attempts, it reported that the root account has been locked out. When can I do now to re-enable it?
    Vincent

    The usual dance. :-)
    1. Put in a Solaris install CD
    2. "boot -s " at the "ok" prompt.
    3. mount /dev/c<your boot partition> /mnt
    4. edit /mnt/etc/passwd
    5. Reboot the system.
    6. login as root
    7. Set your password.
    8. write it on a post-it.
    9. place post-it on monitor.
    I'm kidding with steps 8 and 9.

    I'm trying to update apps iin my iphone but I keep getting the message that my account is disabled.  When I log into itunes it lets me get in so don't understand what is going on.  I've changed my password and my phone has still locked me out.  Please help.

    Try singning out, then back in.  Settings>Store>Apple ID, tap the ID shown, sign out, sign back in.  If your account is still disabled you will probably need to contact iTunes store support:

  • Can't mount 3rd party DAS storage and Xsan volume simutaneously

    Xsan client(MacPro) equipped an Apple FC HBA card can't mount SGI TP9300 DAS storage and Xsan volume simutaneously when powering on or restarting.
    Among 2 FC ports, one port is used for Xsan volume using Xserve RAID, and the other port is used for SGI TP9300 storage which is directly connected to that Mac.
    When booting, Xsan volume is always mounted normally, but SGI TP9300 volume is not.
    Sometimes TP9300 volume is mounted about 20~30 minutes later.(I attached system.log file)
    The LUN of TP9300 is seen at Disk Utility, so it's not physical problem.
    It seems that actual volume information is not correctly processed at booting time.
    While, after booting the system with the FC cable for TP9300 disconnected and confirming that Xsan volume mounted normally, then connecting the FC cable for TP9300, the TP9300 volume is mounted immediately.
    Mac OS X 10.4.8, Xsan 1.4 is being used.

    Yes, I think you screwed your xsan volume. You can not remove luns from pools, and you can not remove volumes from volumes.
    How important is your existing data? In your case I would concentrate on that. This is not trivial. Theorotically you have lost your data allready. In practise you might have luck.
    Once I was in your kind of twilight zone, and managed to keep the data. It is a complete cli job. You have to be very carefull about with your config files. You could hire an experienced xsan consultant. If that is not possible, read the manpages very carefully before doing anything on the volume.

  • Oddball client not mounting XSan Volumes

    Background: My client, a TV News broadcast station, had Apple and a third-party design and install a Apple based XSan storage and network. They ran all new fiber and gigabit ethernet to each station to use the XSan. It has been working great, with the exception noted below.
    Setup: 2 MD Controllers, 1 XServe, 4 XRaids, each make up two 2 large TB volumes (raid 5, stripped together).
    XServe, XRAID, MD controllers, and all clients are all connected together on a Fibre and Fiber Optic network using QLogic switches. SUBNET: 10.200.1.x.
    Ethernet Network, also connected all the above together on HP Gigabit Switches. SUBNET: 10.100.1.x The public WAN is made available on this subnet by a connection to the HP switches. Still getting details on how this was done.
    Everything is running OS X 10.4.8 or better, XSan File System 1.4.
    Setup
    There are 8 workstations (edit bays) that act as infusion and editing stations. Each station has two XSans volumes mounted NEWS01 and NEWS02. They have the odd numbered bays use NEWS01 and the even numbered bays use NEW02.
    PROBLEM
    All bays mount the XSan volumes, except one. FCP08 will not mount the XSan volumes. We have rebooted the workstation, and even went to the extreme of shutting down the entire setup all bays and MD controllers, File Servers, etc.. then bringing everything backup up. Same problem.
    Based on some forum discussion, we have tried the following:
    * Ensured that there is no empty mount point in /Volumes
    * Uninstalled all XSan Software and resinstalled v1.4 from Apple's website.
    * Removed the client from the XSan Admin, and readded it, made sure to enter valid serial number, etc..
    * Verified that all fibers are working, all link lights look good, and you can ping across the MD network.
    When you use the XSan admin from either FCP08 (edit bay 08) or from the server, and you add both MD XSans to it, you see the client, and you click on the client and click either Mount (read-only) or Mount (Read/write).
    It will show "Mounting..." and then it will flip back to "not mounted". The only feedback we have received so far is "ACCESS DENIED". All affinity setting are set to rwxrwxrwx (wide open), and all the volumes and workstation logins all have the same access to the volumes. I can not find any restrictive permissions anywhere.
    I plan on trying to move them away from a /etc/hosts type setup to a proper DNS Server running on their XServe using the DNS Server function of OS X Server. But currently all edit bay stations have the same /etc/hosts file installed, which accounts for MD and ethernet networks.
    ANY IDEAS what is wrong with this workstation? With the setup?
    I have had extreme ideas from some who have said that we need to blitz the entire client, and reinstall the operating system. I am not willing to go down that route, since each edit bay was built manually without an image (another aspect I will remedying soon). It will take sometime to rebuild this edit bay client if I that is the only solution.
    The only this question I have if that is the popular opinion, is what is different from a client OS install and the existing one regarding the XSan? This are edit bays, not private workstations, and no one installs any extra software or surfs the net, etc.. They are used for ingest and editing only.
    HELP!
      Mac OS X (10.4.10)  

    Hi,
    You could check if it is Fibre Channel related:
    from a terminal do a cvlabel -l
    this should give you a list of the lun's in your volume.
    When this tool does not show luns, you might have a zoning issue.
    Regards

  • STARTSAP_NBAS DDIC password locking out

    Guys,
    We are doing 4.6c upgrade to ERP6 and during STARTSAP_NBAS phase DDIC locking out and cant start SAP original system. We tried to unlock the password and also did the reset using SAPup reset DDICpwd. But its still locking out.
    When we tried to login to the system using GUI through DDIC we can login but when we try reset the password in SU01 we are getting syntax error " The data object "*USH02" does not have a component called "PASSCODE"."
    Please help
    Reward points will be awarded for helpful answers
    Thanks
    Santosh

    Hi Santosh,
    The problem is clear that the table USH02 is not updated during upgrade
    so that it is not synchronized with table USR02. Please check table
    USH02 and USR02 table in database level, compare the PASSCODE field in
    both tables. (most probably there is no PASSCODE field for USH02 in db
    level as well). If so, you could do the following:
    1. Change the DDIC password to 19920706 at the table level:
        update sapr3.usr02 set bcode='61D26428640DBAB5'
                              where bname='DDIC' and mandt='000';
    2. Remove the lockflag
         update sapr3.usr02 set uflag=0;
    3. Change the DDIC password to 19920706 for the upgrade using:
    SAPUp set ddicpwd
    4. Then restart the system, and login again.

  • Locked out; What do i do?

    i got locked out of my phone. My phone told me to connect to Itunes and i did that but a pop up come on the itunes and it said unlock your iphone but it is locked out. What do i do?

    Options for when an iOS device gets locked because of forgotten passcode:
    Restore (and reset passcode) on your device by connecting it to the last computer to which it was connected:
    iTunes: Backing up, updating, and restoring iOS software - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414
    If you cannot connect it to the computer to which the device was last connected (or the device was never connected to a computer) you will have to use recovery mode to completely reset the device, losing all data:
    iOS: Unable to update or restore - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808 - recovery mode (e.g., cannot connect to computer last used to sync device, iTunes still asks for a password)

  • Lenovo has different F8 screen, can't get to safe mode with command prompt - account locked out

    Thinkpad W500, Win7Pro.  Can't login: "the referenced account is currently locked out and may not be logged on to". I need to boot to safe mode with command prompt to enable the Administrator account (disabled by default) with a "net user administrator /active:yes" command, but Lenova has their own recovery and interfaces which are preventing me from accessing with normal windows techniques. I either need to be able to get a command prompt on the true C: drive, or reset this lockout situation, and fast...  Waiting more than 180 minutes did not work, and using system restore is not an option-key software patches and additions make this very unattractive, and I know how to do that. 
    Optional Information:
    Computer OS: Windows 7
    Browser: IE
    Already Tried:
    -ThinkVantage button (reg and advanced views) -a boot disk for pwd reset program (I know password, but I am locked out - didn't help) -F8, Repair options and all safe modes -NOT system restore, as we are trying to not undo months of software revisions - we just need to login!

    If we take the error messages seriously, then probably the first thing that you would have to do would be to replace the malformed library:
    /System/Library/Frameworks/Security.framework/Versions/A/Security
    If you have another computer with the same operating system, you could connect via target disk mode and copy over the good library to replace the bad one. I don't know if this library is different between 10.2.6 and 10.2.8. If the library were fixed, that might solve your other problems and it might not. There is no way for us to know.
    Alternatively, you could do an archive and install.

    Hi,
    I am accessing this WS via ARD, so public LAN is definitely there. I have not connected the "Xsan" network (but it should be no problems communicating the Xsan traffic over this single LAN connection).
    With the firewall, the situation is more strange. When I try to open the Firewall settings on Sharing, there is a dialog "Other firewall software is running on this computer." I googled this and it seems that this was a common problem on 10.3. They suggest to delete com.apple.sharing.firewall.plist file but it is not there on 10.4.
    "sudo ipfw list" shows this:
    00001 allow udp from any 626 to any dst-port 626
    65535 allow ip from any to any
    Any ideas on how to make Firewall behave as expected? I will try to reinstall if I don't receive a reply.
    Thanks.

  • Unable to mount XSAN volume on client workstation

    We just reimaged one of our machines and we are now unable to mount the xsan volume. Originally when the machine hooked up the IP was wrong and the XSAN couldn't see it. This has been fixed and the XSAN sees it now and it is authenticated, but when we try to mount the volume we get this error
