Examining Filers
Use the show exports and probe exports commands to examine filers in the server
network. These commands make queries from proxy-IP addresses to test filer
connectivity, find the services supported by the filer, discover filer shares, and
discover permissions settings at the shares. You can use them to troubleshoot network
connectivity to filers as well as any permissions issues.
From any mode, use
show exports to examine a filer’s shares and capabilities:
show exports host filer
where filer (1-1024 characters) is the filer’s IP address or host name. You can use
the hostname only if the switch is configured for DNS lookups; refer to
“Configuring DNS Lookups” on page 4-35 in the CLI Network-Management
Guide.
This shows a report with four tables:
•
Connectivity - shows whether or not pings succeed from every active proxy-IP
address. All proxy-IP pings must succeed. If they fail, verify that the filer is on
the proxy-IP subnet (“Adding a Range of Proxy-IP Addresses” on page 4-6 of the
CLI Network-Management Guide) or reachable through a gateway on that subnet
(via static route: see “Adding a Static Route” on page 4-9 of the network guide).
If some succeed and some fail for a given proxy IP, the MTU settings are
probably set inconsistently between the proxy IP, the filer, and some of the
network equipment between them. For a command to change the MTU on an
ARX VLAN, refer to “Enabling Jumbo Frames (optional)” on page 3-6 of the
network guide.
