Hi agn,

and thanks to Graeme Elsworthy [graeme at unixsm.com.au] for his response, and
esp. to prabir sarkar [prabir.kr.sarkar at gmail.com] who pointed me in the right
direction.
Prabir suggested to remove and re-attach the disk in the following way:

- with luxadm/cfgadm remove the disk from both the nodes one after other.
- run devfsadm -C, devfsadm on both nodes, scdidadm -r on either node.
- with cfgadm configure the disk back on both the nodes.
- run devfsadm -C, devfsadm on both nodes, scdidadm -r on either node.

I removed the disk with cfgadm -c unconfigure, devfsadm + scdidadm, and voila,
it went away! Unfortunately, I was unable to add it back with cfgadm, so,
Prabir suggested a reconfigure boot which did the trick.
The disk came back as did/d9 on both nodes, and I was able to add it to
diskset and build the metadevices etc.

Thanks again,

and have a nice hackin',

Harald

Hi gurus,

I've got a Sun cluster consisting of two X4200 and two SE3310, running
Sol10 x86 and SC3.1 U4, patch rev. is EIS-DVD 12/06.
I have defined two LUNs on each SE 3310, and I'd like to map them to two
disksets, one called "log-dg" and the other one called "ora-dg". The
problem is, that I can't add the second "disk" to the diskset "ora-dg",
since SVM complains that this drive is not common with the other host.
But, I'm quite sure it is, format etc. shows the drive, and even
scdidadm -L shows it without any problems.
One further information: When I first booted the machines, the storages
had a different configuration, and I re-configured them. After this, the
disk in question showed up as d9 on node 1, and as d11 on node 2 - not
very nice for a shared device, so, since I was unable to get rid of this
mappings (even a reconfigure boot after completely disconnecting the
storages helped), I booted up the nodes in non-cluster mode and
edited /dev/cluster/ccr/did_instances by hand.
That helped, after this and a devfsadm && scdidadm -r, the drive shows
up as d9 on both nodes, as I expected. But, see above, the cluster still
thinks these are different drives (although did_instances seems to be
okay).

Any clues?

Thanks in advance,

Harald

Thanks to Ryan and Bryan

>>>fm Bryan
We've setup our environment exactly as you describe.....no issues so far

for us....the only difference was we upgraded our boot servers to Sparc
solaris 10.....


>>>fm Ryan
I am doing this now. In fact, I jumpstart Solaris 8-SPARC, Solaris
10-SPARC/x86 from the same SPARC jumpstart server.

I am using DHCP jumpstart for SPARC clients also. The clients use the
same DHCP server even. The bootparams and DHCP methods do not really
conflict with each other.

Subject: SUMMARY: Is "passwd: files compat" a valid configuration in
	nsswitch.conf?
Message-ID: <A0674ED473ECE741B47C065D2FB6DC2066D955@BP1XEUEX029-C.bp1.ad.bp.com>

Well, yes AND no...

but firstly: "thanks" to Marius Sicoie, Roland Merk, and Robert Murray
who kindly advised me that they were "Out of Office", and specially to
Postmaster at aubay.it who advised me my email was spam. ;-)

Genuine thanks to John Julian and Mike Adams for their helpful answers
and Special Thanks to Darren Dunham for the golden answer that sorted
the whole issue. (and therefore is owed the case of Dr Pepper!)

To summarise:
The addition of files before compat in the nsswitch.conf search order is
accepted and honoured but should NOT be necessary on a "neatly"
configured Solaris box. Quite simply (in the case of /etc/passwd &
related lookups) with the "compat" setting the file /etc/passwd is
ALWAYS going to be read but my problem came because the ORDER is
important. Sounds obvious to me now, but the lines in the /etc/passwd
file will be checked in the order in which they are encountered. So, if
the DB tokens (i.e. the "+@<NETGROUPNAME>:x:::::" entries in
/etc/passwd) that refer to NIS-netgroup-style entries are found BEFORE a
line containing the local "files" configuration they will be checked
before those lines later in the file. In my case I had some lines in
/etc/passwd like this type:

+ at ldn-ops:x:::::

BEFORE lines specifically like this:

oracle:x:1019:100:oracle user:/export/home/oracle:/bin/ksh

and that was the cause of the constant LDAP searching.
The adding of "files" before compat worked because it forces the
/etc/passwd file to be read first as a "plain" file (non-Nis-style)
before "compat" reads it again in the NIS-compatible manner. Therefore
the answer is; it's honoured, it works, it temporarily fixed my problem
but it's a bit of a fudge and ideally isn't necessary if the order in
/etc/passwd is "correct" by having all the DB tokens at the end.

I asked:
---

Message-ID: <BDA5DA0680DBE34FB6062B419044F2AF7F4BAD@exch-srv.ftigrvsc.com>

Thanks to Casper.
I'm sure some of you know but GRUB strikes again.
That is why it worked on 03/05 and not 06/06.  06/06 has GRUB 03/05 doesn't.
So the eeprom commands work, but with 06/06 you have to modify menu.lst also.

eeprom ttya-ignore-cd=true
eeprom input-device=ttya
eeprom output-device=ttya

A couple of changes needed to be made to
/boot/grub/menu.lst

See below:
I chose not to mess with the BIOS and only change menu.lst. My BIOS was set
for serial port (see way below), but I changed it back to factory settings
(disabled).
So basically the serial port is disabled in the BIOS but enable in menu.lst
and eeprom.

Thanks again
Al

Depending on the BIOS setting, you either need to do nothing or
use something like:

	     serial --unit=0 --speed=9600
	     terminal serial

Possibly, add change the multiboot line:

    kernel /platform/i86pc/multiboot -B console=ttya,ttya-mode="9600,8,n,1,-"

There must be some differences b/t 03/05 and 06/06 when it comes to setting up

Hi Guys,

Thanks for everyone's input.

Thanks  Koef for correcting me. I should have known this. I used to have a 
E450R and have gooten use to putting the "E" in front.

I wouldnt dream of running linux on such a decent hardware like the SPARC. 
It was just curiosity to see how linux would run on SPARC hardware instead 
of just running or executing linux API's that solaris 10 allows. I currently 
have my sunfire 280R with 72Gb x 2 disk and only have solaris 10 running on 
1 disk with the other disk as backup. I was going use the spare disk for 
this.

Anyway you guys have pretty much put me off in wasting my time delving into 
Linux on Sparc. Thanks I will stick to Solaris on Sparc.

Regards,

gab

Thanks to all pro's who used a few moments to note down their bits of
knowledge essential to me.

Reminder of the question:   I wanted to snoop an interface with high traffic
and not fill up the
                                        disk partition I was snooping to

1) Use logadm to rotate the output, didn't try this one, but I will explore
the function in the future

2) Use Tcpdumwhich has rotation of the output built in with the switch -s
(this was my choice)

	root at box# tcpdump -I <foo> -w something.pcap -C <number of megabytes> -s 0
<capture spec>

3) Use filters to a maximum to limit the file size (requires a tedious reading
of the snoop man file)

4) Use Ethereal instead (I can't use it on the target production machine)

5) Use Awk or Perl (yes, but too much tinkering for too little time))

6) Finally a warning that I might loose the fileheader and won't be able to do
snoop -i after
    (Actually I analyze the output with etherreal)

Normal usage of SunOS and Solaris:

SunOS is the base operating system without the windowing environment. By
Adding the windows portion, we call the operating system Solaris.

However, be careful: Many people refer to SunOS as the older SunOS 4.X
releases, while referring to SunOS 5.X when saying Solaris.

In fact Solaris 1.X refers to SunOS 4.X plus windows (OpenWin)
environments.

Likewise, Solaris 2.X refers to SunOS 5.X plus windows environment (which
has changes between OpenWIn, CDE etc). However, after Solaris 2.6, the 2.
was dropped and we started using Solaris 7, Solaris 8 etc. This coincided
with the 32 to 64 bit transition.

In summary for SunOS 5.X:
=========================
SunOS 5.1 + GUI = Solaris 2.1
SunOS 5.2 + GUI = Solaris 2.2
...
SunOS 5.6 + GUI = Solaris 2.6
SunOS 5.7 + GUI = Solaris 7
....
SunOS 5.10 + GUI = Solaris 10

If there ever existed a SunOS 2.8, it existed a long time ago.

Cheers,
Kamal MOULINE

MOULINE Kamal a icrit :

  Hi all,
  
  First I wish you a happy new year,
  
  I have a basic question about the sun versions nomination:
  
  I know that SunOS 5.10 is related to Solaris 10 SunOS 5.9 for Solaris 9 
  and SunOS 5.8 for Solaris 8.
  
  My question is what is the difference between Sun0S 2.8 and SunOS 5.8
  
  there is any document that explain the meaning of "a", "b" and "c" on 
  SunOS "a"."b" and Solaris "c
  Please advice,
  Kamal

Subject: SUMMARY: patch for US daylight savings time changes on Solaris
	2.5.1, 2.6, 2.7
Message-ID: <77D5A256260DAB4DA1526EC8873715D501947D17@NAVEXC.corp.int.com>

Thanks to everyone for quick replies! Short answer is that since 2.5.1
and 2.6 are past EOL, I can pay sun $150K to provide me with patches, or
make the mods myself using:

 

/usr/sbin/zic 

 

on latest timezone tables downloaded from www.nih.gov
<http://www.nih.gov/> . This is supposed to be fairly straightforward.

 

Supposedly a Solaris 7 patch may actually be out there yet, as it's
reaching EOL in 2007.

 

It was also noted that these OS are very old, and really should be
updated - understood, but due to complicated circumstances probably
won't happen, definitely won't happen before March 26th. Sigh...

 

Thanks again!

Over 20 replies, thanks everyone!

The general consensus, from all but one person, was that Kingston (and
maybe Crucial) RAM was the way to go. It works.
Get a sales rep from Kingston or some hardware reseller, and they will
get you some good deals, and match the RAM as close as possible to the
Sun part numbers. Slight variances in speed/etc aren't a problem,
except maybe if you run SunVTS on the machine.

And of course Sun will not give you hardware support until you remove
the 3rd party RAM. :)

Subject: SUMMARY: Solaris 10 Zones in different networks: How?
Message-ID: <90A61DF6BA03F24599C0F8D34997C0A468B6F9@RDEX01.ads.mobilcom.de>

I have got some replies.
The most of them told me that they all use the same workaround described here.


I have a T2000 with two networkinterfaces. Each Networkinterface is in a
different network:

ipge0 = 10.36.128.153/24
ipge2 = 10.35.182.54/24

I have three zones, the global zone plus two other zones: zone1 and zone2.

The global zone and zone1 are members in the first network with ip
10.36.128.153/24 and 10.36.128.114/24
and
zone2 is member in the second network with ip 10.35.182.64/24.

If I configure /etc/defaultrouter in the global zone with 10.36.128.1 the zone
zone2 can not communicate in its network.

Zone1 has no problems and I can see with netstat that zone1 has a
defaultroute, zone2 does not have a defaultroute.

If I add a second defaultroute in the global zone with `route add default
10.35.182.11` I can see now two defaultroutes with netstat -r. Zone2 has now a
defaulroute too and can communicate with its network.


Is this a correct way? Or do we get some problems with the two defaultroutes
in the global zone?
Do somebody know how the official way is to configure Zones in different
networks?

I will summarize!
Thanks!

I ended up booting off a cdrom and copied a good version of ld.so.1 back to
/lib

The package that needs to be installed for static cp and mv is SUNWsutl.

I did notice that any exported shares can still be accessed from the server,
however they were only read-only.

Thanks to everyone for their help.

LD_OPTIONS, LD_LIBRARY_PATH, LC_ALL.

One of the more interesting solution it paste the static cp code in, but
very long winded.

I am currently running a Solaris 5.9 box with a ssh session still intact

I have searched and one solution to fix this problem is with the
/usr/sbin/static/cp

However this directory is not installed on this machine. Any other
alternatives before driving out and booting of CD?

we are asked to do this "Please disable SNMP OR change
the read and write strings to something besides read
"public" and write "private"". how would i acheive
this in solaris 8?

Thanks

Joe.


Thanks to paul sagneri, Jeff Claunch, Leber, Tom and
chris Ruhnke. all of them suggested to either edit the
config file  /etc/snmp/conf/snmpd.conf and comment the
private and public lines. also disabling the
/etc/rc3.d/S99ucd-snmp and /etc/rc3.d/S76snmpdx.

Thank you

Best Regards

Subject: SUMMARY: netstat showing non-existent connections
Message-ID: <b0c941e50701120814h6aece29dgfe5f17a324b3165b@mail.gmail.com>

RESOLUTION (Thanks to Casper Dik for his help and prompt responses):

The answer is that if netstat shows "ESTABLISHED" connections then there
*are* ESTABLISHED connections (also verified using pfiles). The problem is
that the client went offline rather abruptly (was not shutdown gracefully)
while some connections were in ESTABLISHED state. That meant that the client
never sent a "FIN" to initiate closing of the connections. When that happens
then connections can stay in ESTABLISHED state on the server for days. The
only other way to close these connections is to make the server application
send a CLOSE which can be accomplished by restarting the server process
(which was not done in order to investigate this problem).

My original problem was:

I have a Solaris 10 LDAP server which is showing "ESTABLISHED" connections
on the LDAP port from a client. I am *absolutely* sure and have verified
that the client has not connected to the server in the last three days. The
"ESTABLISHED" connections have been there for the last 3 days when the
client last connected. No i have not restarted the LDAP process. I want to
get to the bottom of these phantom connections before i restart LDAP and
possibly lose the symptom.

Why is netstat reporting established TCP connection when they are not
actually there? Anybody seen this before?

System - Netra 1280, Solaris 10, Kernel patch level 118833-23

Phantom connections (netstat output):

myserver.ldap     client.14279  61440      0 49232      0 ESTABLISHED
myserver.ldap     client.24855  61440      0 49232      0 ESTABLISHED
myserver.ldap     client.63975  61440      0 49232      0 ESTABLISHED
myserver.ldap     client.47819  61440      0 49232      0 ESTABLISHED
myserver.ldap     client.29304  61440      0 49232      0 ESTABLISHED

A near consensus has formed agreeing that it is a bad idea to delay
reboot after patching.  One reason is running apps rely upon the
binaries and libraries that use the file(s) being patched.  If they
reference a certain offset in a file and that file has changed, the
server will crash.

Thanks to many including Christopher Barnard, David Stapleton, Andrew
Caines, John Christian, and many more.

Hello,

>From past experience, installing a recommended patch cluster can take
up
to 2 hours.  Included with each cluster is almost always a patch which
requires a reboot (such as a kernel patch).  If we were to install the
cluster during business hours but schedule a reboot/outage for after
hours how would this affect the stability and function of the server?  I
will have to present plans for patching to a change management board -
which should be a familiar practice to many on this list - and they will
need to know the risks associated with such a plan.

emlxadm , it says emlxs not installed but i have installed SUNWsan ... is
that i need to install the emlxs separately ? .. if so can someone give me

thanks to all people
but, unfortunately, i have to reboot
it seems that my english is very bad, because many guys suggest me that 
there are troubles with nfs or automount, but how can you explain that 
others users continue to login on this machine without any trouble?
c. hoogendyk suggested to look after sunray session, but it's not the 
solution (no session remain)
Before this problem happened, userA can login without any trouble. But 
two days ago, he had problems with firefox or thuderbird, and a sysadmin 
tried to kill all user's processes. And that's why i got a strange 
situation, with zombies processes, and userA unable to login again.
And after one day search without success, it's time to reboot

Hello List,
it seems that there is no "short" way to fix that problem.
I will send the patch to sun and wait for an official patch from sun..

Subject: SUMMARY: Updated: patch for US daylight savings time changes on
	Solaris2.5.1, 2.6, 2.7
Message-ID: <77D5A256260DAB4DA1526EC8873715D5019FECDE@NAVEXC.corp.int.com>

I've had a number of people contact me about this summary. I would like
to add some add'l details to the summary.

1. Details on timezone tables: 
"In the tz database's FTP distribution the code is in the file
tzcodeC.tar.gz, where C is the code's version; similarly, the data are
in tzdataD.tar.gz, where D is the data's version. The following shell
commands download these files to a GNU/Linux or similar host; see the
downloaded README file for what to do next.

wget 'ftp://elsie.nci.nih.gov/pub/tz*.tar.gz'
gzip -dc tzcode*.tar.gz | tar -xf -
gzip -dc tzdata*.tar.gz | tar -xf -
The code lets you compile the tz source files into machine-readable
binary files, one for each location. It also lets you read a tz binary
file and interpret time stamps for that location."

The above quote is from: 
http://www.twinsun.com/tz/tz-link.htm

The words "FTP distribution" in first sentence are link to:

ftp://elsie.nci.nih.gov/pub/

There's a file:

tzdata2007a.tar.gz

on that page that appears to have the timezone files. I am guessing this
may be what the respondent was thinking about. I'm not sure how to use
them, but hopefully that should be self evident on examination. 

2. Version-specific patch info:
Solaris 10 - I don't have the info yet
Solaris 9 - requires 113225-03 or later and 112874-33 or later
Solaris 8 - requires 109810-02 or later and 108993-52 or later
Solaris 7 - may be available online, though OS reaches EOL in 2007
Solaris 2.6 and earlier - will have to rebuild from timezone data tables
at www.nih.gov using "zic"

3. A correspondent got the following info from Sun technical support
about whether you could rely on NTP to handle the timezone change (no),
and whether you absolutely had to reboot after timezone patches are
installed (yes):

"NTP uses UTC, universal time coordinated. It knows nothing about Time
Zones, which are an env variable.  Ramifications are unknown and no one
wanted to speculate. According to this Sun Alert:

Document Audience:      PUBLIC
Document ID:      102775
Title:      Daylight Saving Time (DST) Changes for Australia (2006),
Canada 
(2007), United States (2007) and Others
Update Date:      Wed Jan 17 00:00:00 MST 2007

'There is no easy way to avoid this issue. Attempts to change the TOD
clock of the system are temporary and will not resolve all the time zone
issues resolved by these patches. It is advised that the patches are
installed to resolve the time zone changes.'

When I asked around about this, I was told that we recommend that the
time zone patches be installed, regardless of the presence/absence of
NTP.  If problems do occur, installing the DST patch/patches will be
necessary.  System maintenance is unavoidable sometimes and Sun will
also be needing to do this in all our data centers worldwide."

Thanks to everyone for quick replies! Short answer is that since 2.5.1
and 2.6 are past EOL, I can pay sun $150K to provide me with patches, or
make the mods myself using:

/usr/sbin/zic 

on latest timezone tables downloaded from www.nih.gov
<http://www.nih.gov/> . This is supposed to be fairly straightforward.

Supposedly a Solaris 7 patch may actually be out there yet, as it's
reaching EOL in 2007.

It was also noted that these OS are very old, and really should be
updated - understood, but due to complicated circumstances probably
won't happen, definitely won't happen before March 26th. Sigh...

Thanks again!

Subject: SUMMARY: how to lowering FS reserved space?
Message-ID: <74CA11B999068445BB4C145813AAAD9301C7BEC6@srvmail02.gobierno1.yucatan.gob.mx>

Thanks to Terry Franklin who promptly responded straigth to the solution:

tunefs (1M) can help reducing the 10% default value, but I found in man pages
that there are some considerations to take before any movement, that I will
share:

>From docs.sun.com:
"
     -m minfree
This value can be set to 0; however, up to a factor of three in throughput
will be lost over the performance obtained at a 10% threshold. Note: If the
value is raised above the current usage level, users will be unable to
allocate files until enough files have been deleted to get under the higher
threshold.
"

And from http://leaf.dragonflybsd.org/cgi/web-man?command=tunefs&section=8 :

     -m minfree
	     ....  Settings of 5% and less force space optimization to
	     always be used which will greatly increase the overhead for file
	     writes. ....
     -o space | time
	     The filesystem can either try to minimize the time spent allocat-
	     ing blocks, or it can attempt to minimize the space fragmentation
	     on the disk.  Optimization for space has much higher overhead for
	     file writes.  The kernel normally changes the preference automat-
	     ically as the percent fragmentation changes on the filesystem.

So I will leave the minfree default 10% for performance reasons.

Thanks a lot.

Daniel.

Are you looking for tunefs? tunefs -m <minfree> will adjust what you are
referring to. See tunefs(1M) for more info.

Hi fellow admins,

I've been searching (without any luck) for the steps how to lower the
reserved space of the file systems, here is an example:

Filesystem                     size     used  avail capacity  Mounted on
/dev/md/dsk/d0                 9.6G     7.2G  2.3G    76%    /
/dev/vx/dsk/datadg/voldb1       64G     51G   6.8G    89%    /db1
/dev/vx/dsk/datadg/voldb4       32G     26G   2.5G    92%    /db4
/dev/vx/dsk/datadg/voldb2      128G    114G   1.7G    99%    /db2
/dev/vx/dsk/datadg/voldb5       64G     18G    40G    32%    /db5
/dev/vx/dsk/datadg/voldb3       64G     51G   6.9G    88%    /db3
...
..

As you may see, the numbers doesn't correspond if you do the math!,
taking as anexample db3
size = 64G (100%)
used = 51G ( 79% real but listed 88%)
avail = 6.9G (11% aprox.)

I know that the 10% "lost" is for integrity info, but it's a lot!!
No matter it's a Veritas VM volume, SVM volume or a single slice volume
it reserves the 10%!
Uname -a output:
SunOS srvdb 5.9 Generic_118558-25 sun4u sparc SUNW,Sun-Fire-880

How can I lower this value of 10%?

Thanks in advance,

 All
	Many thanks to all of you who responded to my pleadings,
especially Jeff Claunch, Steve Starer and Matthew D'Arcy, but not to
those with the ever helpful 'Out of Office' responses.
I did attempt to back out the cluster but that proved to be too time
consuming, so in the end I did the decent thing and rebuilt the system
from the install disks and then patched again; however, I did follow the
advice of Steve and go to the single user mode from a reboot (reboot --
-s) before installing the patch cluster. Once the patch cluster was
successfully installed, I then mirrored the disks. I know it is a
cop-out, but I was time constrained against a delivery deadline, so
unfortunately I don't have a decent reason as to why it occurred in the
first place, and hopefully if I follow this procedure next time, I won't
have the problem again.


Thanks - Ian

Gurus
    I am in the process of configuring a v210 system with Solaris 9 9/04
and then applying the patch cluster which contains the kernel patch
118558-20, please don't ask why.
I've installed the OS, mirrored the disks and installed the patch
cluster.
After rebooting the system I now get this: -

Is there a 'get out of jail' procedure for this problem, or do I have to

I've tried the fsck option, but I get a Bus Error when I attempt it.

Any Ideas?

Hello,

Thanks to everyone who replied.

It turned out to be true that the 02/04 doesn't contain sun4us. 02/02 does.

Asunto: booting from cd, sun vs fujitsu


Good day dear Gurus,

This is not exactly a sun issue but this might be intriguing to solaris admins
regardless of the architecture.

I have a Fujitsu-Siemens PrimePower 450 running a Solaris 8. I've ran to a
slight trouble with vxvm and I'd need to boot the server from cd.

I've obtained the Solaris8 02/04 cd (multi_icd_sol_8_204_sparc)

However when I try to boot from the cd I get:

{0} ok boot cdrom
Boot device: /pci at 83,4000/ide at d/cdrom at 0,0:f  File and args:
boot: cannot open kernel/sparcv9/unix
Enter filename [kernel/sparcv9/unix]:

On one forum I found that I should get a Sol8 cd from Fujitsu. Is it true that
the "default" Sol8 cd is no good with Fujitsu servers? There's nothing for
sun4us on the cd either. Of course, this is my first time booting the server
from cd so I'm not exactly sure about the procedure either.

In detail what happened with the server (if you might have any other idea how
to make the server boot again) is that we installed the veritas volume manager
trial version and decided to apply it only on the FC disks. Trial version
means that the vxvm will fail at boot without the license key. Being in a
horrible hurry to install Oracle (that goes on the system disks) I needed to
reboot the server regardless and thought to tap in the license key later as I
wouldn't need the FC disks yet.

I had instructed the installer to leave the system disks alone (under
DiskSuite) and only apply the vxvm for the FC disks. However this seemed not
to be the case and some system disks (like usr) went under the control of the
vxvm. Thus, at reboot, the system disks were not available.

Any ideas and comments would be most welcome!

Br,
Jarkko

Message-ID: <200701191418.l0JEIEjQ022170@svane.norsar.no>

Original post:

> I have a SunFire 280R Solaris 9, 2xCPU, 4GB RAM, fiber HBA
> connected to a Nexsan Atabeast with 14x300GB disks. Nexsan 
> disks organized in 8 identical volumes, RAID5. Veritas VM

Forgot to mention that the server is an NFS-server but only a
few clients were accessing their NFS-mounts at the time...

Comments / suggestions:

1) In Solaris 10, iowait is no longer measured and will be reported as zero
   by existing tools. Since iowait was always a variant of idle time, this
   makes no difference to usr or sys time. iowait was always a confusing and
   useless metric, which is why it was removed.

2) Volume layout

   As some of you pointed out, there is no point in having striped layout
   on a volume already beeing configured as RAID5 on the disk controller.
   This slows down the IO. Unfortunaltely, I haven't had the opportunity to
   recreate these volumes using Veritas concat layout but all new volumes
   on other disk boxes are using this layout. We're seeing higher I/O 
   throughput on these.
   
2) Tools to find more info about disk activity

   vxstat  (fex. vxstat -i 5 - c 10 -g smoddg)
   sar     (fex. sar  3 10)
   prstat  (fex. prsize -t size)
   top     (have a look at picdl's size. May require a patch if size is large)

Conclusion:

None. Yet. My server is still spending much time in iowait. However, after
having rebooted all clients the iowait number became significantly lower.
Could be that one of the clients messed up big time... I plan to change
the volume layout when we're upgrading to a new disk box.
     
Thanks to all that replied!


Best regards,

Nils

Subject: SUMMARY: Disk Mirror Problem
Message-ID: <45B0DD64.AEA8.00AB.0@eirteic.com>

Hi again,
Thanks to everyone who replied. ie. Brad, Don, Chad, Gordon, Jim, Tim, Thomas,
Darren and Richard. Basically I think my problem was down to taking out the
disks a little too often which in turn put my submirrors on my mirror disk in
the state of "need maintenance" which when I detached, cleared,
re-initialised, reattached and synced with the other submirror allowed me to
reboot from mirror once again with the root disk pulled out. This time my
submirrors residing on my root disk were reading a "need maintenance" status
but are fixable using the previously mentioned proceedure. The reason this
threw me was that I didn't believe this would resolve the issue seeing that
once both disks were in place I could boot back and forth between root disk
and mirror without any problems. I think the moral of the story is not to be
pulling disks out too often and expecting nothing to be affected.
Regards,
Paul

The answer

It is no longer needed.  Sun has a tool for Solaris 10 that does a
similar job to the tool I developed.  It is /usr/sbin/ftpconfig, which
will create an anonymous ftp user and set up its environment.  It does not
include /usr/platform/`uname -i`/lib/libc_psr.so.1.

Hello,

In the first summary I said that Solaris 8 02/02 has the sun4us binaries (as
opposed to 02/04 doesn't). That is true but it's not exactly what you'll want
for a PrimePower server after all. 02/02 seems to panic at boot.

You'll need the actual Fujitsu-Siemens version of the Solaris 8 if you want to
boot the server from a cd.

Br,
Jarkko

Dear Sunmanagers

 

I have
an Ultra 5 running Solaris 8  Version Generic_108528_29. On
rebooting the
system (either multiuser or single user runlevel), the
system panics and

In an effort to remedy this situation, I did the following:
Entered "ok" prompt and ran "boot cdrom" with the Solaris 8 (2/02) cd.
Results:

 

Part of the installation completes successfully (sytem

but the installation encounters errors when the filesystem

Well, we never did get the serial console back. In the end we applied the
RSC packages, switched the input-device and output-device in the OBP, and
configured a user, so that the RSC became our working console. It's now
looking like the actual serial port may be dead on the system board.
Special thanks to Sun's support line for ONCE AGAIN screwing up our
contract information, and telling us that this machine is on a cancelled
contract (It's not).

Here's a summary of all of the excellent suggestions which unfortunately
didn't work in our case:

1) Restart the ttymon daemon. I failed to mention that this problem was
   consistent at the OBP as well as the running OS, and persisted through
   a reboot.
2) Check the input-device and output-device. They were set to keyboard and
   screen respectively, which should (and did--and does on our other v880s)
   drop down to ttya in the absence of said devices.
3) Check the tty settings. They were still at the bog-standard 9600/8/N/1,
   as was the console server.
4) Try another port on the console server. Did that, didn't help.
5) Try ttyb. Didn't do that at all, as I'd need a splitter cable or at
   the least a custom pin-out adaptor.
6) Plug in a keyboard and monitor, and reset. Did that, and ended up
   getting garbage on the screen, no response from the keyboard, nothing
   at all on the serial console, and a machine that wouldn't boot! Truly
   bizarre...
7) Check the cables, adaptors, etc. Replaced everything in the chain
   except for the actual system board, all to no avail.

At this point, we have a console via the RSC, and also a significantly
updated OBP firmware. I believe we're going to kill ttymon and test the
ttya serial port, and then get Sun in to fix the hardware if that's what
turns out to be the issue.

Thanks for the help folks.

Message-ID: <8C90C7BA6437F91-1FC-9C4D@WEBMAIL-DC08.sysops.aol.com>

Thanks to all who responded.

The unanimous answer is that a reboot is required to implement the new 
DST.

Also, Darren added these comments:
If you do not reboot, only new processes will see the new timezone 
files. Any process that was launched before the patches will have the 
old data in memory. So, if you have something like Oracle, you'd need 
to restart it, and in some cases that's just about as hard as rebooting.


Original questiion:

Can support for the new DST be implemented without a reboot, as 
directed in patch 109809-04?

Sorry about the late response. Only got one response, who suggested using
every thing listed in /usr/lib/locale. This actually breaks the jumpstart.
Finally I did it the painful way: Included EVERTHING, repeated the jumpstart,
deleted the ones that broke, repeated until jumpstart OK. The list 301 lines,
but here it is:

Subject: locale list for jumpstart

Greeting,

Does anyone know of a definitive list of locales for use with jumpstart? When
we build systems we have to include all supported languages and I'd like to
do
this in a profile. I can get a list of the locales with 'locale -a' but a
significant number of those get rejected during the system load with 'Could
not select locale'. In addition I get a good number of 'Locale is already
selected' messages. I did find the web site
http://developers.sun.com/dev/gadc/tools/lc/lc.jsp which has a nice sortable
list, but the format for some of locales is not acceptable for the jumpstart
(e.g. hi_in from the web site is rejected but hi_IN.UTF-8 is accepted.)

Subject: SUMMARY: Removing superseded patches 
In-Reply-To: Your message of Tue, 23 Jan 2007 10:17:33 -0500.
Message-ID: <200701252100.l0PL0mSh028058@pspat006.gcm.com>

The recommended way to remove previous patches is to remove old patch
directories.

These have the form /var/sadm/pkg/<pkg-name>/save/<patch-id>.  So in my
case I could remove /var/sadm/pkg/SUNWglrt/save/120812-12.  If I was
sure that I did not want to back out the -14 patch I could also remove
/var/sadm/pkg/SUNWglrt/save/120812-13.  Be careful not to remove the
<pkg-name> directory itself.

Thanks to Chris Buesgens, Oscar del Rio, Crist Clark and Anthony D'Atri.

Original post:

Are there any VERITAS VCS/VxFS/VxVM vendor patches for Solaris 8,9,10 for
DST this year?


Summary:

I tried for four straight days to get through to VERITAS and always found
myself waiting for more than an hour each time and finally gave up.

The information I've gathered from the group is that, outside of Solaris OS
patches,  there are no VERITAS vendor patches required.

Hallo sunmanagers,

	I have located the problem. OpenBoot PROM Monitor was not loaded
properly into RAM, therefore some commands as "boot cdrom" and similar
were not giving expected results. The OpenBoot PROM Monitor was not
loaded properly into RAM, as RAM is defected. I got following output
with diag-level set to max:

		1>WARNING:	DIMM Failure detected in Bank 1

		1>	DIMM 0 J3100 side 1 =   64MB.

		1>	DIMM 1 J3101 side 1 =  128MB.

		1>	DIMM 2 J3201 side 1 =  128MB.

		1>	DIMM 3 J3200 side 1 =    0MB.


		1>WARNING:	DIMM Failure detected in Bank 3

		1>	DIMM 0 J3100 side 2 =  128MB.

		1>	DIMM 1 J3101 side 2 =  128MB.

		1>	DIMM 2 J3201 side 2 =  128MB.

		1>	DIMM 3 J3200 side 2 =    0MB.

	Interesting is that only after some time I was able to get the
above results when testing Memory. In the beginning of my
troubleshooting process there was no such error message.

	Thank you for all your answers.


With Kind Regards,

Subject: SunFire 480, booting problem

Hello SunManagers,

	I have a hardware problem with SunFire 480 machine (4 CPUs, and
2GB RAM). For some reason, machine can not boot the OS Solaris anymore.
Error message I'm getting is "Can't locate boot device". Of course, I
have two disks which are mirrored; therefore I have exchanged their
slots. Nevertheless, no result.

1) When I try "boot" command from ok prompt I get following:
	ok> boot
	Initializing    12MB of memory at addr        b0ff000000
	Initializing  4080MB of memory at addr        b000000000
	Initializing     4GB of memory at addr        a000000000
	Boot device: net  File and args:
	Can't locate boot device

2) Second approach:
	ok> boot disk
	Boot device: /pci at 9,600000/SUNW,qlc at 2/fp at 0,0/disk at 0,0  File and
args:
	Can't locate boot device

3) The same I get for:
	ok>boot disk1
	ok>boot disk0
	ok>boot /pci at 9,600000/SUNW,qlc at 2/fp at 0,0/disk at 0,0
	...
	ok>boot cdrom

4) Additional error message that I get:
	Probing /pci at 8,600000 Device 1 Corrected ECC Error
	{3} ok Corrected ECC Error

	In addition to everything, now I have changed a diag-level to
max and it solved a problem partially. Boot command works in general but
disks do not seem to be bootable anymore. I get following errors:

	A) Boot device: /pci at 9,600000/SUNW,qlc at 2/fp at 0,0/disk at 0,0  File
and args:
	   The file just loaded does not appear to be executable.

	B) mount: I/O error
	   mount: cannot mount /dev/dsk/c1t0d0s5
    	   /sbin/rcS: /usr/bin/loadkeys: not found
	   WARNING: /proc could not be mounted
	   /sbin/swapadd: expr: not found
	   /sbin/swapadd: swap: not found

	   WARNING - /usr/sbin/fsck not found.  Most likely the
	   mount of /usr failed or the /usr filesystem is badly
	   damaged.  The system is being halted.  Either reinstall
	   the system or boot with the -b option in an attempt
	   to recover.

	At least "boot cdrom -s" can be executed now. Anyhow, do any of
you guys know what might be the problem here as I need to repair this
machine quickly? Of course, long-term solution is needed. I do not want
to setup the whole system which would appear unstable afterwards.

Thank you very much in advance for your efforts. I will summarize the
solution/conclusion as soon as I have one.

Kind regards,
Marijan Mumdziev

Much thanks to Willi Burmeiste who pointed out the 'geo' jumpstart keyword.
Being paranoid I tested it and it works, all locales installed. Guess it was
a
case of RTFM.

Subject: locale list for jumpstart

Greeting,

Does anyone know of a definitive list of locales for use with jumpstart? When
we build systems we have to include all supported languages and I'd like to
do
this in a profile. I can get a list of the locales with 'locale -a' but a
significant number of those get rejected during the system load with 'Could
not select locale'. In addition I get a good number of 'Locale is already
selected' messages. I did find the web site
http://developers.sun.com/dev/gadc/tools/lc/lc.jsp which has a nice sortable
list, but the format for some of locales is not acceptable for the jumpstart
(e.g. hi_in from the web site is rejected but hi_IN.UTF-8 is accepted.)

Message-ID: <20070126172114.7135.qmail@web31710.mail.mud.yahoo.com>

Thanks to all who responded.  


the patches do/did work. It was operator error...  Or
more specifically my misunderstanding of the GMT to
Eastern time offset...

before the time change in March, the GMT to eastern
time difference is 5 hours.

before the time change in Nov, the GMT to eastern time
difference is 4 hours.  

so to test i had to set my time ( using the date cmd,
the -u option sets it using GMT time. ) to 5:59am GMT
rather than 6:59am GMT. 

-------- the error in my ways ----------------
when I used 6:59am GMT in Nov, the time was already
ahead in the eastern time zone...

Subject: SUMMARY: server hangs or stops showing messages while doing
	configuring /dev and /device
Message-ID: <568759.77144.qm@web50309.mail.yahoo.com>

Here's the solution to the issue:

I added the following line to /etc/system as suggested
by the engineer to determine what modules the server
was loading and which module it was hanging.

set moddebug=0x80000000

In my case it stopped at drv/mpt and the next module
to be loaded was drv/qus. When I excluded this module
into the /etc/system, the server boot up fine. We 
still have to look though how we can enable qus module
back without affecting the server boot up.

Here's how it was excluded in the /etc/system file:

exclude: drv/qus

Thanks to everybody who responded to my inquiry.

Thanks a lot to Waqar Hafiz, John Riddoch and Brad Morrison for their 
replies.

Yes, it is doable and the way to do it is the netgroup map.

Thanks again

Slightly OT: Name services options






Sunmanagers,

I've "inherited" a NIS environment with two NIS servers on Redhat 7.3 
(sigh...) and a bunch of Solaris NIS clients.
On NIS clients, how do I go about adding per-user granularity?
I.e. I'd like user "johnny" to be able to log on to server A, but not to 
server B (where both A and B are NIS clients).

A. is this doable in the first place?
B. if yes, how is this done?
C. if not, what naming service allow me to do that?

Thanks in advance for your help, 

Loris

Message-ID: <BAY121-F3313A623551CC55FCF58EFEA70@phx.gbl>

Good afternoon All.

Many thanks to those who replied and sorry a summary has taken so long.

The original problem was:

>We have a Solaris 8 sparc box with no CD/DVD drive. The root password is 
>unknown. We also have no functional Jumpstart servers available.
>
>Is there any way, short of installing a CD drive, of accessing the root 
>password/etc/shadow to get into the system?
>
>Any suggestions gratefully received!

A summary of responses:

1. Use a JumpStart server to boot from the network
2. Install a SCSI CDROM/HDD
3. Use a boot server

It was unfortunate that none of these options were available at the time. We 
solved the problem by creating a new JS server and re-installing the 
operating system, a somewhat drastic solution. However as luck would have it 
the owner on the box was planning a re-install anyway so we saved them the 
trouble.

Once again many thanks to those who responded.

Best regards

Greg Hitchcock

The answer:

I can't, really.  From a backline engineer at Sun:
***************************
The only place you can ask for input is in request.  It is in place
so that all packages are guaranteed to be able to be installed
non-interactively (you can pre-supply the answers to the questions).

You can ask a question in request pre-emptively, such as "If I find a
name service, should I shut it down and remove it from the manifest?".

Then you can export the variable there in the request script:

echo "MANIFEST_REMOVAL=${my_value}" >> $1

This $1 is read later on by the other scripts.

In postinstall, you can then check the value of the variable:

if [ "$MANIFEST_REMOVAL" = y ]; then ....

That's the only way I know how to do it. The disadvantage here is you
might not know what questions to ask until later.

Also note that you can supply default values for whatever custom
variables you'd like in you pkginfo file.

Thanks to abdul mannan, and alexresun,

I ran "iostat -En" to determine the device id. I also tried rebooting
the machine with "boot -r".It turned out the cdrom was bad.  I just
wanted to make sure I did not miss anything.

Thank you,

Subject: Cannot get cdrom to mount in Solaris 9

All,

I am just trying to get a cdrom to mount in one of my solaris 9
machines.  At OBP it sees the cdrom. Then when the system is up the
system will not automount the cdrom. This was working about a month ago.
I have stopped and restarted /etc/init.d/volmgt and then I run volcheck
-v . It gives me the error no media found. I have rebooted the machine
with boot -r. All with no luck. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank You,
JP

Subject: SUMMARY: Setting netmask on Solaris 10 sparc?
Message-ID: <77D5A256260DAB4DA1526EC8873715D501AB0593@NAVEXC.corp.int.com>

I asked about a problem getting the netmask to set correctly on reboot
in Solaris 10. Thanks to all that replied. I believe that I made a false
assumption of what the netmask *should* be, based on another server that
turns out not to be on the same network. Thus, it appears to be my
mistake.

However, I rec'd a number of good suggestions. Most people said this
hadn't changed from Solaris 9 to Solaris 10. It was also noted that I
should have included examples - apologies, had trouble sanitizing info
and hoped this was an easy and obvious change in Solaris 10. Comments
included:

* "I had the same problem and I fixed it by adding the netmask on the
/etc/hostname.hme0 file. Here is an example:
	10.10.10.10 netmask + broadcast + up"
* Check the links from /etc/netmasks to /etc/inet/netmasks, and
/etc/hosts to /etc/inet/hosts, and double-check syntax in files
* Check the network number in /etc/netmasks 
* Make sure you have the same entries as /etc/hosts (sym link to
/etc/inet/hosts)  in /etc/inet/ipnodes. "Used to be for IPV6 only.
Compulsory on Solaris 10 for IPV4, too, nowadays."
* "I notice that Solaris 10 is very strict about network definition,
e.g., we had an old definition like
	10.241.132.0	255.255.255.0
...which had worked before, but Sol10 rejected it because 10.241.132
isn't (strictly speaking) a network."

Regards, and thanks,

Thanks to Jeff Horwitz, Matthew Stier, Darren Dunham, and KR  
(rossman at columbia.edu)

Turns out that SDS/SVM optimizes new RAID 0+1 volumes into RAID 1+0  
just as long as the number of columns in each of the mirrored strips  
is the same and the sized of the physical disk slices in each column  
is the same, even though there is no difference in it's outward  
appearance.

Also, Matthew Stier provided this link, which verifies that this is  
indeed the case:

Thanks to Andrey Borzenov, Remco Fugers and Hutin Bertrand.

All suggest to use either

/opt/FJSVadm/sbin/hrdconf -l

or

/opt/FJSVadm/sbin/madmin

After looking at these tools I discovered that PowerSupplies are called 
"FEP" there ..
/opt/FJSVadm/sbin/madmin shows that status of the PowerSupplies; 
/opt/FJSVadm/sbin/hrdconf -l lists the PowerSupplies but the status is 
always displayed as "normal" - even if there's no power ....

regards

Bernd
