Organization Testing Approach Hardware Scripting Language Duration
SUN Microsystems Manual and Automation Sun StorEdgetek 53X0 NAS and 5320C PERL May 2007 – December 2008
Project Description: Common Internet File System (CIFS) is an enhanced version of the Microsoft Server Message Block (SMB) protocol designed to overcome the built-in restrictions of SMB. CIFS is an inter operable mechanism for a client system to request file access from a server system in a network regardless of the underlying operating system platforms of the respective systems. SMB/CIFS allows client systems of Windows environments to access files on NAS appliances and gateway systems. SUN StorEdgetek NAS 53X0 acts as a CIFS Server and the different windows machine are the clients. The various CIFS Server features I have worked on are: 1. Active Directory Services. 2. Auto home Shares. 3. Basic ACL. 4. Built-in Groups.
5. Credential Mapping. 6. CIFS File Locking. 7. Directory Change Notification. 8. Dos Attributes. 9. NT LAN Manager V2 10. NTFS Streams. 11. Multi Master Domain. 12. Take Ownership. Roles and Responsibilities: • Writing Test Cases and developing the scripts. • Configuring Windows 2003 and windows 2000 Domain Controller. • Setting up the Active Directory Services, establishing trust relationship between different domains and managing the Domain Users. • Perform Functional Testing of the CIFS protocol on NAS Server. Project #2 : SUN StroEdge 53x0 NAS Cluster Functionality & In-Band RAID Management Organization Testing Approach Hardware Duration
SUN Microsystems Manual. Sun StorEdgetek 53X0 NAS and 5320C August 2007 – December 2008
Project Description: A cluster appliance includes a pair of active-active servers, sometimes called heads, that share access to the redundant array of independent disks (RAID) controllers and several different networks. The RAID controllers are connected to each server through Fibre Channel controllers. In normal operation, each server operates independently, with responsibility of logical unit numbers (LUNs). If one server suffers a hardware failure that renders a data path unavailable, the working server automatically takes ownership of Internet Protocol (IP) addresses and LUNs formerly managed by the failed server. All operations of the failed server, including RAID volume ownership and network interface addressing, are transferred to the working server. In-Band Raid Management project describes the different scenarios for creation/deletion of LUNS. For example , File volume can be created along with the creation of luns, and can also be created /deleted when lun is in different states which includes critical, copy-back, rebuild and failed state. Roles and Responsibilities: • • • • •
Writing the Test Cases . Testing the cluster functionality in different LUN's states and in different network configurations. Managing the Extension Unit and the RAID Controller Unit. Testing the RAID controller's functionality through CLI. Bug Reporting and Tracking.
Project #3: iSCSI Organization Testing Approach Hardware Duration
SUN Microsystems Manual. Sun StorEdgetek 53X0 NAS and 5320C April 2008 – December 2008
Project Description: iSCSI is a protocol designed to carry SCSI commands and data across an IP network. It enables a server (initiator) to send SCSI commands and data to a storage device (target) over a TCP/IP based network (standard LAN technology) in IP packets. The Sun StorEdge NAS Appliance is used provide the raw disk space to the the solaris/windows clients. Roles and Responsibilities: • Configure the iSCSI Access list and iscsi luns on NAS Appliance. • Configure the solaris client to use the iscsi luns shared by the NAS Appliance • Configure the windows client with Microsoft iscsi initiator to use the iscsi luns provided by NAS Appliance.. • Test the iscsi potocal functieonality between NAS Appliance and Solaris/Windows client Project #4: CIFS client for Opensolaris. Organization Testing Approach Scripting Language CIFS servers Duration
SUN Microsystems Manual and Automated. PERL. Windows 2k3/2k8 /2k, Fedora Linux , Opensolaris. January 2009 – July 2009
Project Description: The CIFS protocol (a.k.a. SMB) is the natural file sharing protocol on Microsoft Windows machines, and is implemented by Samba on UNIX/Linux. This project delivered a standard Solaris virtual file system that implements a CIFS client, which provides access to files and directories on CIFS servers. When using the CIFS client, users can mount remote CIFS server shares on their Solaris system to get read-write access with ordinary Unix applications Roles and Responsibilities: • Write the test case to facilitate solaris users to access windows/Samba on Linux shares. • Execute the above test cases, report the bugs and drive them to closure. Project #5: System Testing on Sun 7xxx Unified Storage Product Organization Testing Approach Scripting Language Stress tools Duration
SUN Microsystems Manual and Automated. PERL. GRITS, vdthrash, ddthrash, cadaver. July 2009 – till date
Project Description: The Sun Storage 7xxx Unified Storage products provide efficient file and block data services to clients over a network, and a rich set of data services that can be applied to the data stored on the system The various features which I worked on are: • Upgrade the appliance to and higher build and rollback to the lower build while the appliance is stressed with all mixed ios. • Execute the automated test suite like CIFS protocol, nfs protocol and ldap test suits. • Cluster Functionality. • Handling various major, minor and micro builds. Micro builds has a turnaround time of 24 hours. • Managing the Unified storage product through Microsoft management console.
• • •
Enhancing the test cases and filling the test gaps based on costumer escalations. Remote replications Nested mount points.
Roles and Responsibilities: • Execute the test cases on above features , report the bugs and drive them to closure. Experience on SAN Technologies. Project #1: Access Control List. Organization Client Testing Approach Hardware Duration
Wipro Technologies. Brocade Communications Manual and Automated. Brocade Silkworm switches September 2005 - August 2006
Project Description: Brocade produces FC SAN switches and develops the necessary system software. In this module an ACL Policies is enforced in the switches present in a fabric. The switches can only remain in the fabric and communicate with each other if and only if they are member of same policy otherwise they will be disconnected from the fabric. This is achieved by disabling the E-port of the non-member switch. There are two types Switch Connection Control (SCC) and Device Connection Control (DCC) policies. Through this we achieve enhanced security by allowing only the policy member switches to remain in the fabric.. Project #2: Fiber Channel over IP (FCIP) Organization Client Testing Approach Hardware Duration
Wipro Technologies. Brocade Communications Manual and Automated. Brocade Silkworm switches August 2006 – April 2007
Project Description: Fibre Channel Over IP (FCIP) describes the mechanisms that allow multiple local or remote Fibre Channel SANs to be interconnected over an IP network backbone. FCIP is a tunneling protocol that uses TCP/IP as the transport while keeping Fibre Channel services intact. By combining IP networking with SAN technology, it allows us to extend the interconnectivity of SANs across much longer distances Roles and Responsibilities: • Writing the Test Cases and developing the scripts for testing. • Setting up and managing the Fabric. • Testing the FCIP functionality
