Re: [OpenIndiana-discuss] AD Authentication and Samba 4 Active Directory
According to a similar ticket I had opened with Oracle, when passwordless ssh key logins stopped working on Solaris 10 hosts, after we migrated from DSEE to AD, they suggested the following: Example pam_conf file for pam_ldap Configured for Account Management Note – Previously, if you enabled pam_ldap account management, all users needed to provide a login password for authentication any time they logged in to the system. Therefore, nonpassword-based logins using tools such as rsh, rlogin, or ssh would fail. Now, however, pam_ldap(5), when used with Sun Java System Directory Servers DS5.2p4 and newer releases, enables users to log in with rsh, rlogin, rcp and ssh without giving a password. pam_ldap(5) is now modified to perform account management and retrieve the account status of users without authenticating to Directory Server as the user logging in. The new control to this on Directory Server is 1.3.6.1.4.1.42.2.27.9.5.8, which is enabled by default. To modify this control for other than default, add Access Control Instructions (ACI) on Directory Server: The AD is missing the control to validate the user account. That is why all the ssh password less logins are not working. We need to reconfigure the pam.conf to make use of pam_unix module instead of pam_ldap( pam_ldap requires above control) The system is configured for pam_ldap. so we need to change the config to pam_unix or pam_krb5 module Hope this might shed some light.

I had an open bug with Sun in 2009 regarding the separate /var partition, and we went months arguing with support regarding whether or not that was a supported configuration. It'd be somewhat interesting to know the details on how it could be argued, because a separate /usr and /var are explicitly described in filesystem(5). As with all things on Solaris, the official reference on what ought to work (and what is not documented to work) is the man page. Well, I suppose with Solaris 11 (though haven't actually booted it), the man page might still say something about /usr, though it wouldn't have much relevance. In Solaris 10, UFS was still a viable file system there. However, a separate /usr makes no real sense to me in this day and age, given that the only substantial reason that support ever existed was for the extremely wacky clients with tiny root disks and NFS-mounted /usr configuration. Nothing other than unusually good fortune could protect someone trying to do that in 2013. In the early 90s, I did NFS-mounted /usr configs. Later, the concept of the netboot client was pretty cool, but I don't think many people used it, and eventually the option went away. A separate /var makes sense to me, but you do need to be a bit careful with it, and I would not be shocked to find that there things there that don't work terribly well. In particular, I'd expect that you have to use legacy (/etc/vfstab) mounting in order to make it work. For a separate /var on Solaris 10/ZFS, there's no vfstab entry required. It's fully supported these days, after I put up a 6 month battle with support in 2009. When I got notification that it had been fixed, I was almost incredulous at the minimal amount of work required for one or two of the initialization *shell* scripts. For what it's worth, I don't do that on my own systems. I just create zfs mounts over the key (growable) mounts below /var ... particularly /var/cores (where I set coreadm), /var/crash, /var/mail, and /var/log. Plus, having separate sub-mounts gives me much finer-grained accounting and control. That's sort of the whole point of ZFS. We use /var/home on the remaining Solaris systems here, and that works fairly well. If we weren't moving away from Solaris, I might consider some of those sub mounts off /var. My point being is that, a separate /usr ZFS file system has had no support or testing for this type of configuration. Testing is a separate and much more important point, I think: if you do things the way nobody else does them, intentionally or otherwise, then you're a test pilot. Much luck, and make sure you've repacked your parachute recently. Well, at the time, I used your argument that it's in the man page and supported, and there was no announcement of removing /var from filesystem(5) for ZFS, among other things.

Re: [OpenIndiana-discuss] Moving /var and/or /usr to own zfs filesystem
I really can't see the wisdom of splitting out /usr from / on a ZFS file system. I had an open bug with Sun in 2009 regarding the separate /var partition, and we went months arguing with support regarding whether or not that was a supported configuration. The main issue was that single user and failsafe modes were not mounting /var, which made problems with the system difficult to debug when requiring single user mode or failsafe mode. The obvious argument for this config was that logfiles are in /var, so /var being available in single user or failsafe was really required for debugging. Since mounting /var in failsafe or single-user required me to changes the ZFS config, it also created complications if I didn't reset the /var ZFS config. Eventually, support finally relented, and the bug was fixed. My point being is that, a separate /usr ZFS file system has had no support or testing for this type of configuration.

However I think I finally understand what boot environments do, why the filesystems are consolidated, and what package management has to do with it. Well, these things all have their reasoning, at least for the default case, even if I personally disagree and tweak my setups differently ;) Can zones be easily copied to other machines, like VM images ? Pretty much yes, as long as the global zone OS version is the same on both machines (there are many kernel-libc-zfs-... interactions that do require coherent versions to be running). Easiness of such porting depends on complexity of your customizations - such as delegated ZFS into the zones vs. also storing them as singular filesystems, network setup (delegated VNICs probably most common today).

Re: [OpenIndiana-discuss] 3737 days of uptime
Patching is a bit of arcane art. Some environments don't have test/acceptance/pre-prod with similar hardware and configurations, so minimizing impact is understandable, which means patching only what is necessary. I prefer to patch everything when I build, or in environments where I have test/acceptance/pre-prod as it minimizes issues that I may not know exists. It also has the benefit of putting Oracle support in the seat of not being able to run their explorer analysis tool which always says your patches are out of date. My usual response is that's good, I got a tool like that too, and I didn't need you to tell me that. I had one experience with a new build, and a network problem, and engineer tells me my patches are out of date? I replied Oh, really, What does sed, awk, and Xvnc have to do with my network problem.? guy on the phone mumbles uhhh. uhhh.. uhhh. I told him I also had a patch tool to inform me what the status of my patches were, and I was pretty sure that none of those patches had anything to do with my network problem.

Re: [OpenIndiana-discuss] moving existing rpool onto larger disks, in-place: zpool/zfs ashift/blocksize musings
If you can add the third disk, why not do a zfs send/receive to put it down on the new disk with a new rpool name. Then you can just move the disk around (or the bios settings) and do a little magic to boot to the new disk. On Mon, May 14, 2012 at 7:00 AM, Hans J.

I'd pull out any PCI{-EX} cards. I just installed S10 U10 on a DL360

Qlogic FC HBAs. It got through the install and then started panicing
on reboot. I removed
the HBA's and patched the image, and when I reinstalled the HBA's,
everything was happy
again.
My panic looked alot like the PCIE error I reported seeing with the

Re: [OpenIndiana-discuss] Stack not written error on install attempt
Oh, I think I know what that problem is. I saw problems with my Radeon X1550 PCI. That board has a PCI to PCI-E bridge on it, and I had similar issues you are reporting with Solaris 10 and Solaris Express. Early on (S10U6/7) I could get systems to boot with that board in, but then the system would enumerate all the normal ISA/PCI devices as PCI-E. Later version of Solaris just crashed with that board in. I think the PCI/PCI-E routing code in Solaris just gets supremely confused by the bridge and just gives up the ghost. I wonder if that NVidia card also has a PCI-PCIE bridge.

Looks like NWAM starts the NIC too late - I see the following entries in NFS logs : *NFS mount: server :: RPC: unknown host* (above entry comes fom network-nfs-client:default.log) where this *server* is the name of the machine, where NFS shares exist. It's registered in the DNS, and can be easily resolved to the IP after the system starts 2. So it seems that there is easy workaround : disable NWAM, and entry manual configuration : So I have done it, applying well known scenario published several times on different OpenSolaris pages, including OpenIndiana : disable physical NWAM, enable physical network, plumb the interface, etc ... Additionally I have modified it a little bit to get the DHCP configuration : created /etc/dhcp.e100g0 file etc - generally, manual DHCP configuration works fine. During the boot, DHCP client has got the IP configuration, plumbed the NIC, resolved DNS server address. Additionally - NFS mounted the shares correctly ! Well - almost correctly : shares are mounted in RO mode, although at the server side there are correct (I think) shares definitions - they are used by different machine with Solaris 10 installed, and it mounts them in RW mode. I have even tried to force mounting them in RW mode, using appropriate option in /etc/vfstab file : in column option I have *rw,vers=3* options enabled (I am forcing NFS v. 3 as the server works under Linux - and there are some incompatibilities in NFS4 between SunOS based systems and the Linux world.
