Resolution

The following command is used to read the attributes of a placeholder on a Celerra / VNX. When this command runs, it connects to the datamover's dhsm using http and queries the attributes on the placeholder.

/nas/tools/dhsm/get_attributes -u -p "/Filesystem_name/subfolder/placeholder.ext"


The username used in the get_attributes command will be the same account that was locally created on the Celerra / VNX for Enterprise Vault to use.

To find this account, run the following command on the Celerra / VNX while logged in as root:

/nas/sbin/server_user server_2 -list

Note: The HTTP listener of the dhsm only allows connections from specific IP addresses. The IP address of the local Celerra / VNX may need to be added to the allowed hosts list of the HTTP listener.
