I still don't see how that warrants OpenIndiana to have it in the troubleshooting guide. As said, the problem has no relation to the operating system at all. It might as well happen on a Sun server running Linux, with a client running Windows or OS X, as long as they use a Firefox 5 or newer. You are probably better of creating a blog post or page someplace on the web where you describe the problem and the workaround for it, and then let the search engines index that. -- Venlig hilsen / Kind regards Jeppe Toustrup (aka.

Not even a location where we could upload this stuff. As you may or may not know we don't have a "leader" at the moment, as Alasdair Lumsden stepped down as project leader one month ago. Things pretty much work on their own from people who contribute work.

Perhaps a new mail thread where you specifically called out for somebody to host your ISO file would have worked better?

I have fixed it now. It is simply a matter of removing the '+'s from the page title. As Confluence uses pluses instead of spaces in the URL, a page with pluses in the page title collides with this, and that causes Confluence to fall back to it's "safe" URL, which is the latter one you posted, where the page title isn't part of the URL.

VNICs and VirtualBox doesn't go well together. The reason for this is that VirtualBox doesn't know anything about the MAC address of the VNIC, and thus doesn't forward traffic to that MAC address into the virtual machine. When you run tcpdump it will set the network interface in promiscuous mode, which will drop the filtering of traffic intended to other hosts, and the traffic to the zone will get through. The best way I have found to solve this, is to create an extra network interface in the VirtualBox configuration, and then assign that interface to the zone instead of a VNIC. Then it will work as expected. -- Venlig hilsen / Kind regards Jeppe Toustrup (aka.

Start rsyncd (see http://wiki.openindiana.org/oi/rsync+daemon+service+on+OpenIndiana) and set up a share for '/' which you then can rsync against. You can either do this directly over the network (unencrypted) or SSH into the machine and connect to rsyncd through localhost. 2. SSH in as dedicated unprivileged user, which then have permissions to run rsync with root permissions though sudo. This is the option I use for backups, and I have a line such as the following in the sudo configuration, which only allows the unprivileged user to retrieve files from the server, and not write files: backup ALL=NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/rsync --server --sender * -- Venlig hilsen / Kind regards Jeppe Toustrup (aka.

Why is the package manager trying to create a new BE for installing CUPS? Most likely because you are running OpenIndiana b151 in the zone, but 'pkg' is trying to install the newest version of CUPS available in the PKG repository - the prestable 1 version. That version has dependencies on other prestable 1 packages, which require a new boot environment to be installed. You can check this by adding the '-v' option to the pkg install command, it will show you all packages it will try to install and which versions of them. > 2. How can I install CUPS anyway? You can either update the zone to the prestable 1 release, or install CUPS in a specific version which matches the versions of the rest of the packages in your zone.

The difference is that in Solaris 10 the brand of the zone would be "native" where as in OpenIndiana it's "ipkg". This means the zone's configuration in OpenIndiana differs from Solaris 10, ie. now a zone has to be on a ZFS pool, and have its own ZFS dataset. What you will need to do in this case, is to use the "fs" property in zonecfg instead. This is an example from the zonecfg man page: zonecfg:myzone3:fs> set dir=/usr/local zonecfg:myzone3:fs> set special=/opt/local zonecfg:myzone3:fs> set type=lofs zonecfg:myzone3:fs> add options [ro,nodevices] zonecfg:myzone3:fs> end This will get the folder "/opt/local" from the global zone mounted at "/usr/local" inside the zone "myzone3", with the mount options "ro" and "nodevices" specified (see "mount" man page for those). -- Venlig hilsen / Kind regards Jeppe Toustrup (aka.

You only need to have NTP running in the global zone. The non-global zones use the global zones clock for their time keeping.

The IPS package system does not provide one file per package, instead each individual file which makes up a package are downloaded individually, this means that you can't just download what would resemble a .rpm or .deb file. You can instead use the "pkgrecv" command to download the files which makes up a package, and then install the package on your non-internet-connect server, using the "pkg" command. Alternatively you can set up your own local mirror of pkg.oi.o/dev, by using rsync to get all the files needed: rsync pkg-origin.openindiana.org::pkgdepot-dev -- Venlig hilsen / Kind regards Jeppe Toustrup (aka.

The SAS controller you choose should depend on the servers you are placing them in, and what PCI-Express slots they have (speed wise) available, if the card needs to be half/full height and how many SAS connectors you need.

If Svavar should be spending money on the OS, then why not suggest Nexenta? They make an storage appliance operating system, and at the same time contributes to illumos. It lets the OP use HP servers if he so prefers, and it can help out illumos and thereby OpenIndiana at the same time. Sure, Sun/Oracle do create nice hardware, but with the redundancy and error detection available in illumos/OpenIndiana, I don't see any need for paying their premium for the hardware compared to other manufactures. Svavar, the two points to have in mind when considering hardware for such a storage system would be: 1. How much RAM it takes. ZFS likes RAM and preferably uses it as its read cache, which gives really fast response times for often accessed data. That along with the predictive read-ahead makes large streaming reads fast as well. 2. How many drives it handles and which types. Depending on your workload and expectations for the speed of the storage system, you may want to look into adding SSDs to your setup. ZFS can both use them as a read cache - extending the existing read cache in RAM - or as a write cache for synchronous writes, if your application makes use of that (note: iSCSI writes are always synchronous!). -- Venlig hilsen / Kind regards Jeppe Toustrup (aka.

This is because VirtualBox doesn't know of the extra MAC addresses for the VNIC's in OpenIndiana, and thus doesn't forward the packets to those MAC addresses to the OpenIndiana server. The only workarounds to this I can think of, is either using shared networking, which may work depending on your needs. That way all zones share the global zones MAC address, and will work fine. They do however not get their own network stack. Another workaround would be to add more virtual network interfaces in VirtualBox, and then assign these interfaces to each zone. They will appear as physical NICs to OpenIndiana. -- Venlig hilsen / Kind regards Jeppe Toustrup (aka.

[OpenIndiana-discuss] IP Filter and IPv6
Hi It seems like I am hitting a bug concerning IPv6 and IP Filter. I have created a very simple IPv6 firewall in /etc/ipf/ipf6.conf, which basically only allows incoming ICMP pings and SSH: # Default policies pass out all keep state block in all # Allow ICMP pass in quick proto ipv6-icmp all keep state # Allow SSH pass in quick proto tcp from any to any port = 22 keep state The problem is that whenever the machine is started up with IP Filter enabled, I cannot contact it over IPv6 until I have stopped and started IP Filter ("svcadm restart ipfilter" is not enough). I have checked the output of "ipfstat -nio6" both before and after IP Filter has been stopped and started, and there are no differences in the output. I am thinking this may be a timing issue, but I don't know how I could troubleshoot this further. This is on OpenIndiana b151a, and I see it on two separate machines. -- Venlig hilsen / Kind regards Jeppe Toustrup (aka.

You say you need a file system, does that have to be a POSIX compatible file system (ie. mountable) or do you just need to store some files? If you just need to store some files, you could have a look at Hadoop or more specifically HDFS (Hadoop Distributed File System), which consists of java daemons which can synchronize files around for you and manage all the redundancy.

I don't think it necessarily needs to be up, but it needs to be plumbed in the global zone.

Do I need to create a bridge with only one interface?? Right, that means your dmzlan0 vnic is basically connected to the same network as e1000g1. If you only want to get traffic to the zone which is meant for it, then you should not use a vnic, but instead set "ip-type=shared" in the zone configuration and set the physical interface to "e1000g1", then the zone will only get traffic intended for it while being connected to the same network as e1000g1. Alternatively, you can use an etherstub as previously mentioned. That does however require you to set up routing of packages in the global zone, in order for packages to get from the physical network to the etherstub network. Packages will then basically go like this: Physical network -> Physical network interface (global zone) -> VNIC (active on global zone) -> Etherstub -> VNIC (belonging to zone). -- Venlig hilsen / Kind regards Jeppe Toustrup (aka.

The first boot is slower because all the manifests for the system services are being loaded in for the first time. However, the amount of RAM also has a great impact on the speed OpenIndiana runs at, and I won't suggest to run it with less than 2 GB, if you want to use it for anything. This is in part because ZFS likes to cache as much as it can in RAM, but will not be able to if the RAM is taken up by the rest of the system. -- Venlig hilsen / Kind regards Jeppe Toustrup (aka.

[OpenIndiana-discuss] Making an iSCSI target redundant
Hi I am trying to set up a storage system which is going to expose it's storage through iSCSI. The storage system is consisting of two storage nodes connected to SAS switches which then are connected to SAS JBOD arrays containing the disks which will hold the data. Everything is up and running in my setup now, except redundancy on the storage node part. I don't know how to get around to set up redundancy of the iSCSI targets in case one of the storage nodes goes down, or is taken out for maintenance. Can anybody help me out here? Are there any best practices or software which can handle this? I have had a look at Nexenta, but it seems expensive considering I only am missing the redundancy of the storage nodes. -- Venlig hilsen / Kind regards Jeppe Toustrup (aka.

Here is an example of the information I get from the command for one of the drives (also available here: https://gist.github.com/1270080): hc://:product-id=X8DTU-LN4+:server-id=head01:chassis-id=1234567890/motherboard=0/hostbridge=2/pciexrc=2/pciexbus=3/pciexdev=0/pciexfn=0/iport=0/scsi-device=7 group: protocol version: 1 stability: Private/Private resource fmri hc://:product-id=X8DTU-LN4+:server-id=head01:chassis-id=1234567890/motherboard=0/hostbridge=2/pciexrc=2/pciexbus=3/pciexdev=0/pciexfn=0/iport=0/scsi-device=7 group: authority version: 1 stability: Private/Private product-idstringX8DTU-LN4+ chassis-idstring1234567890 server-id stringhead01 group: storageversion: 1 stability: Private/Private target-port stringw5000cca369c5cf1a attached-port stringw50080e520155d03f lun64 int64 0 devid stringid1,sd@n5000cca369c5cf1a manufacturer stringATA model stringHitachi HDS72302 firmware-revision stringA180 inquiry-device-type int32 0 It states in the FMRI string that the this is scsi-device 7, however, the drive in question is really drive number 10 in the JBOD. scsi-device 6 is really slot 2 and so on - random numbering it seems. The sas2ircu command does however work fine for me, and gives me the output I need.

You can probably run "devfsadm -Cv" in order to clean up the device names and find any drives which may have new names. The trailing "d0" is from the Solaris specifications of designating a hard drive. Hard drive names are written as "cXtXdX", which X replaced by numbers (0-9 or hex). The lowercase letters are short for Controller, Tray and Drive (or Disk?), respectively. Before the ZFS days the names was usually followed by either "pX" or "sX" designating the partition or slice number, but when ZFS is using an entire drive, it is left out of the listing. -- Venlig hilsen / Kind regards Jeppe Toustrup (aka.

[OpenIndiana-discuss] Best way to map SAS drives to physical positions
Hi I have an OpenIndiana server connected to a 12 drive JBOD chassis through SAS, and I am trying to figure out the best way to find out which physical drive in the chassis resolves to each of the drive names visible from the operating system. These are the drives I can see in OpenIndiana related to the JBOD (list from "format"): c8t5000CCA369C3AF7Dd0 c8t5000CCA369C5B1DBd0 c8t5000CCA369C5B22Bd0 c8t5000CCA369C5B44Cd0 c8t5000CCA369C5BB0Cd0 c8t5000CCA369C5BC27d0 c8t5000CCA369C5C30Cd0 c8t5000CCA369C5CD7Cd0 c8t5000CCA369C5CF1Ad0 c8t5000CCA369C248F7d0 c8t5000CCA369C03102d0 c8t5000CCA369C40412d0 The names does not tell anything about which physical location they have in the JBOD as each drive has a WWN name, or at least a WWN-like name. The only way I have found which I can find the order of the drives in the JBOD along with the above names, without pulling out each drive and see which one becomes unavailable, is within /etc/path_to_inst, where I find the following lines: "/scsi_vhci/disk@g5000cca369c248f7" 3 "sd" "/scsi_vhci/disk@g5000cca369c5c30c" 4 "sd" "/scsi_vhci/disk@g5000cca369c3af7d" 5 "sd" "/scsi_vhci/disk@g5000cca369c40412" 6 "sd" "/scsi_vhci/disk@g5000cca369c5bc27" 7 "sd" "/scsi_vhci/disk@g5000cca369c5b1db" 8 "sd" "/scsi_vhci/disk@g5000cca369c5cd7c" 9 "sd" "/scsi_vhci/disk@g5000cca369c5b44c" 10 "sd" "/scsi_vhci/disk@g5000cca369c5bb0c" 11 "sd" "/scsi_vhci/disk@g5000cca369c5b22b" 12 "sd" "/scsi_vhci/disk@g5000cca369c5cf1a" 13 "sd" "/scsi_vhci/disk@g5000cca369c03102" 14 "sd" The order of the drives here match the order in which they are found in the JBOD, I just have to subtract 2 from the number in the second column. My worries are however how this will look if I get another JBOD chassis attached to the same server, I guess it will just continue with counting the numbers up, but I don't have any reference to which chassis each drive is found in. Does anybody have a better way of getting the SAS drive IDs mapped to the physical drive positions in JBOD arrays? -- Venlig hilsen / Kind regards Jeppe Toustrup (aka.

The warning you get is to make sure you won't overwrite data on the wrong drive.

I have experienced this with OpenSolaris as well, the workaround would be to go into the shell before launching the installer, import the old 'rpool' and then destroy it.

I have started with making a copy of the DistroWatch sheet, and tried to only list server related packages on that list - since it's what I know most about. It mainly shows lack in mail servers (exim, postfix), ftp servers (proftpd, vsftpd), database servers (postgresql, firebird) and lastly various web based packages (pgadmin, phpmyadmin, wordpress). It would probably be a good idea to work on the network based services first, and then leave the webbased for now. PostgreSQL has already been handled, afaik, and should be available in the next version of OpenIndiana. > This will then allow us to focus on getting those packages added, and serve > as a method of distributing the work.

[OpenIndiana-discuss] KDE on OpenIndiana (was: openindiana more popular)
2010/10/2 Alex Kuster : > Any chances to get KDE SC in OpenIndiana ? *shiny eyes* KDE already runs on OpenIndiana, have a look at the KDE for Solaris project: http://solaris.kde.org/ or this blog post which I believe is from one of the developers of that: http://blog.hajma.cz/2010/09/kde4-on-openindiana.html There are however not any really clear current installation instructions available, we should look into getting that on the wiki. Shortly put, you should add any of the following publishers for the 'kdeips-dev' repository: http://solaris.bionicmutton.org:1/ http://pkg.osladil.cz:3/ And then you install the KDEconsolidation package.

That is probably related to the following bug, which actually is due to a change in how pfexec and sudo works in the post-b134 OpenSolaris/OpenIndiana builds: http://www.illumos.org/issues/204 You could try using sudo instead, or apply one of the mentioned work arounds for getting pfexec to work as it used in previous builds.
