![]() This is a common error message when trying to create big dogs in Create a Sim/Pet on a computer that doesn't meet the minimum requirements for the game or your graphics card drivers need an update.I'm going to mark this post as a solution so let me try to cover the information available here for anyone running into it this error message in the future: Changes that you can see in regards to newer implementations of StorNext not only being more compatible but also feeding into Xsan as well.Just in case anyone is confused - I just merged 3 threads about the same topic into a single one But it does show that there’s change brewing under Xsan’s hood. auth_secret available, etc.įinally, this article isn’t going to be very useful yet. Seems as though a lot of errors could be diagnosed, such as having a pool with no specified purpose, not having a. Once it does you should be able to send a Dump, List and Query action in order to check various things about the SAN. Then there’s sncfgquery, which seems to not be fully implemented as it won’t yet let me send actions to the command. The sndpscfg configures the StorNext Disk Proxy Server, which I can’t seem to get to work just yet (although it is compiled for OS X as it calls the paths that we use for StorNext for logs and the such). The sncfgremove is somewhat dangerous allowing you to remove filesystems and the sncfginstall is somewhat interesting as it allows you to install filesystems as easily as you removed them. sncfgconvert can convert a config file into an XML or ASCII file (choose using -F) using a -f option to identify the source file, -n to identify the name of your filesystem and -v to do it all with verbosity (been waiting all day to use that word!). ![]() Running sncfg allows you to edit a filesystem (use -n to specify the name of the filesystem and -f to specify a temp file to write changes to in case the edit fails. I don’t know if you feel validated but I sure do. System/Library/Filesystems/acfs.fs/Contents/bin/sncfgvalidate -n MYVOLUMEĬute, we should just get back a response that: Let’s just validate a volume’s config using sncfgvalidate: It’s not as pretty as the flat files were, but it’s much easier to parse. This also involves exposing more options to users, such as keys for haFsType, as can be seen in the below configuration file structure: This is going to output a n XML structure that can be used, for example, to use your volume in StorNext or possibly to run your volume with the later StorNext style of config file. System/Library/Filesystems/acfs.fs/Contents/bin/sncfgtemplate -n MYVOLUME Let’s run sncfgtemplate with an option for -n and specify an active volume name: This command can create a template of a volume configuration file based on the existing contents of a volume configuration file. In the meantime, let’s look at the sncfgtemplate command first. You can read all about the structure and the way that you build and manage arrays and namespaces when you have time to read the man page. As the name of the files would imply, the new format has a cfgx file extension. However, the names are pretty straight forward in telling a compelling story about what they do and there is a man page for snfs.cfgx, the new format of files. There aren’t any man pages for these commands and help/usage information is sparse at best. ![]() The second is that we have a few new commands in our toolbelt, aptly named with a prefix of sncfg, including sncfgconvert, sncfgedit, sncfginstall, sncfgquery, sncfgremove, sncfgtemplate and sncfgvalidate. The first thing is that all of the binaries of gone back into /System/Library/Filesystems, now located in /System/Library/Filesystems/acfs.fs/Contents/bin (or if not, symlinked). But, in order to be compatible with some of the later versions of StorNext, Xsan is in the process of an underlying update that most likely haven’t noticed. People say “Xsan is going away” or “Apple doesn’t care about us” or something like that. It seems like about once a year I have to see threads like the recent one on the Xsan Mailing List from Apple (yes, that one hasn’t been deprecated juuuust yet).
