Re: [OmniOS-discuss] Bug in pkg/server on OmniOS when the publisher name contains a dash
The OmniOS version of pkg(5) is a downstream of OpenIndiana's, which is in turn a downstream of Oracle's, but last synched in 2013 (because Oracle uses hg, and git from hg is annoying). Interesting, wasn't aware of that. So is it really just a matter of mercurial-git conversion, or has the OI/Omni version of pkg diverged too much? if the former, maybe one of the many tools could be leveraged that pull stuff out of hg repos and push it into git? I don't know. I don't do the downstreaming from Oracle... OI does. OK, I will post a query to the OI dev list when I have time. Just running pkg.depotd in the foreground. /usr/lib/pkg.depotd -p 2112 -d blah Port 2112, with blah being a pkgrepo(1M) directory. Neat trick for debugging, thanks. [...] ...but the pkg/server:my-pub instance listens on another port, hence the 404 codes. I'd have to look deeper, and maybe enable more debugging output. The 404 is expected. That was just to show the pkg/1427212657. Going forward, what is the likelihood of OmniOS adopting a more recent version of the Oracle IPS gate? I don't really think I can offer much help (ENOTIME, ENOCLUE, etc.) but IMHO it would be well worth while if it fixes that bug. I have enough else pulling at me at the moment I can't look at this deeply right now. Understood. Same here. Thanks for having a look! Regards -- Volker -- Volker A.

[OmniOS-discuss] omnios zone experiences on openindiana
Hi, I do not remember, where I discussed about this topic earlier, but I just wanted to tell a success-story: I had a playground omnios-blody (151013) in a VirtualBox. I upgraded it to the current 151014 LTS. Then I created a zone into it to have a template. Then I migrated this zone to my home nas, which run OpenIndiana 151a9. Everything succeed, but I had some slap on my face to learn things:) So, I thought I share those experiences: At First time I forget to detach the zone. Docs says, you do not have to. But you suck much more if you don't so, detach the zone! ;-) Usual google findings about this topic is original sun/oracle docs, where zfs send has a -rc options. I used -R option. I did not have a sunsol11 playground in the near. And at the attach phase. You will suck! But, one thing which may help: http://everycity.co.uk/alasdair/2011/10/fixing-no-active-dataset-on-zone-attach/ That script helps you to setting zfs property after the migration. After running that script you can mount the ROOT/zbe by hand, as Alisdair writes, and the attach... almost work. I made a mistake, tried the attach with -u, which also exists on oracle/sun docs, but not on the illumos branch, so my openindiana added their own publishers to my zone. So, I attached again, but now with the -n option, which eliminates the checkings. Then I could boot the zone. I fixed the publishers. Then I could clone the zone, so now I can have omnios 151014 lts zones on my openindiana nas. (And I could eliminate also eliminate one virtualbox linux machine, since a native illumos based system is much-much efficient and using fstype=lofs instead of nfs, and an os-level virtualization instead of machine virtualization, etc.) Kind regards, György Pásztor ___ OmniOS-discuss mailing list OmniOS-discuss@lists.omniti.com http://lists.omniti.com/mailman/listinfo/omnios-discuss
Re: [OmniOS-discuss] A warning for upgraders with large numbers of BEs
Hi, Dan McDonald dan...@omniti.com wrote at 2015-03-23 16:14: Soon r151014 will be hitting the streets. WHEN THAT DOES, I have to warn people, especially those jumping from r151006 to r151014 about a known issue in grub. The illumos grub has serious memory management issues. It cannot cope with too many boot environment (BE) entries. Sorry for semi-offtopicing the thread, but: Will the lx brand be restored in the upcoming release? Is there a feature map / release plan / anything available? I tried to find information regarding this topic without success. I checked this url: http://omnios.omniti.com/roadmap.php But nothing relevant information was there. It seems outdated / unmaintained. I've just recently find this distro. I used openindiana since Oracle... -- Did what they did to opensolaris -- So, I'm new here, sorry for lame questions.
