Correction to the effects of storage system reboot on a vFiler unit

The topic "Effects of storage system reboot on a vFiler unit" includes an
incorrect word.
The following sentence includes an incorrect word: When you stop a vFiler
unit and then reboot the storage system, the stopped iremen starts running
again after the reboot.
The corrected sentence is as follows: When you stop a vFiler unit and then
reboot the storage system, the stopped vFiler unit starts running again after
the reboot.

Requirement for backup and replication operations on vFiler units

When performing SnapVault, ndmpd, and SnapMirror operations on a vFiler
unit, you must ensure that the root of the vFiler unit is a volume. This
information is missing in the Data ONTAP 8.0 7-Mode MultiStore Management
Guide.

Naming guidelines for vFiler units

Information about the guidelines you require when naming a vFiler unit is
missing in the Data ONTAP 8.0 7-Mode MultiStore Management Guide.

following guidelines when naming a vFiler unit:
