RE: NAS device woes, IBM going to SMB 2.1?

Thanks Chris for the reply.

We see no evidence of a dismount and we actually see them as being created
on the NAS (we have a cron job running that changes ownership after
creation of document and so we were able to track down in the log files
some of the missing documents). It's after that point that they are
disappearing.

I issues I ran into is, when the NAS mount is not mounted, files are
written to the IFS directory. Once you re-mount the NAS, they are hidden,
as you only see the NAS device and not the actual IFS directory it is
mounted over. Even a WRKLNK will show the mounted directory, not the
physical directory while the mount is attached.

Richard,

We are using mount type NFS on the IFS:

mount type(*NFS) mfs('nasi.xxx.xx:/data/lcc1ext') mntovrdir('/lcc1ext')

It appears to be the NAS causing the disappearing documents. Not a
process.

The SMB setup right now is between the NAS device and the Windows Network.
