[OpenIndiana-discuss] Problem with "beadm activate"

[Stefan Müller-Wilken]

Dear all,

I recently ran into problems activating updated boot environment with beadm in 
my OI Hipster installation:

root@sunblade04:/root# beadm activate -v oi-hipster-17
be_do_installboot: device c4t0d0s0
  Command: "/usr/sbin/installboot  /tmp/.be.sUayde/boot/pmbr 
/tmp/.be.sUayde/boot/gptzfsboot /dev/rdsk/c4t0d0s0"
  Errors:
bootblock version installed on /dev/rdsk/c4t0d0s0 is more recent or identical
Use -F to override or install without the -u option
Activated successfully
root@sunblade04:/root#

While beadm signals a sucessfully activated boot environment, I'll be thrown 
back to the old one after 'init 6'. Anyone an idea on this one?

Cheers
 Stefan

Hi John,

..

well, completely rebuilding httpd with all its modules was actually what I was 
hoping not to need.  Although your scriptlets look tempting. Are these commands 
what was used in the original IPS build process as well?

[OpenIndiana-discuss] More recent modsecurity pkg

[Stefan Müller-Wilken]

Dear all,

could anyone with access to the Sun Studio environment do me a great favor and 
lift the mod_security package from its current IPS incarnation to the 2.9.1 
available from modsecurity.org? I tried to compile it with 'gcc' but that will 
crash Apache httpd under oi_151a9 when loading the module.

Cheers,
 Stefan.

Re: [OpenIndiana-discuss] Posting inline

[Stefan Müller-Wilken]

Nicola,

Don't you think it might sound a little arrogant to speak out warnings to 
others on the list just for not being able to inline correctly? I can't 
remember having been destructive, irrelevant or rude. As I already said, I 
simply do not have a choice to switch to a different editor as the only access 
to the net using this mail address is via OWA. I would happily use Alpine if I 
could - but I just can't. And if that was reason enough to ban I'd find that 
sad.

Cheers
 Stefan

Re: [OpenIndiana-discuss] PAM risk based authentication?

[Stefan Müller-Wilken]

Well, also an approach, but restricted to SSH only. My requirement is to 
conditionally include PAM modules, so tuning httpd will not suffice, I'm 
afraid. But thanks for the idea!

Re: [OpenIndiana-discuss] Enable network interface from the start

Hi Luisa, you could also configure it via NWAM, there is a description how to 
do it on the OpenIndiana Wiki: 
http://wiki.openindiana.org/oi/Using+NWAM+to+configure+network+interfaces

 I've created the topic so I might be a little biased 
;-)

See http://wiki.openindiana.org/oi/4.2+Networking

Also, if NWAM is disabled (as described on URL above), this OmniOS
documentation regarding network configuration should also apply to
OpenIndiana:

http://omnios.omniti.com/wiki.php/GeneralAdministration

I think that you only want to use NWAM for systems where interfaces
come and go (e.g. for laptops) or for desktops primarily configured
via dhcp.

Re: [OpenIndiana-discuss] OI roadmap (for production)

[Stefan Müller-Wilken]

Hi Alex,

first of all, don't get me wrong. It wasn't the difference in security fix 
frequency that I called a good point but the relevance of it. I sure would not 
insult those keeping my favorite server OS alive! And great to hear that the 
security alerts / CVEs are being patched on a regular basis.

As so often, this simply might be a matter of missing information. Is there a 
CVE patch log? The current release notes under 
http://wiki.openindiana.org/oi/Release+Notes don't seem to list any.

 Stefan

Bad point.
I watch latest news and try to fix security issues which are known. I
suspect that there could be issues in GUI programs (as our GNOME version
is dated), perhaps in the ancient sendmail version which we use, but
server software in oi-userland is regularly fixed. From what I'm aware
now, perhaps, percona and MariaDB could be updated to the latest minor
versions, but I don't know if there were critical security issues in
these DBMS recently.
If you aware about security issues in server packages, let me know
(packages, CVE numbers).

Hi all,

IMHO OpenIndiana /hipster is OK for desktop use (not ideal, but if you
like it...).

For serious use (if Oracle Solaris is out of question) I would use one
of SERVER distributions, mentioned here:
http://wiki.illumos.org/display/illumos/Distributions (SmartOS is maybe
best choice. Of course I do not know what needs you really have)

Personally I use /hipster from OI for every day job (is that production
use?) and despite some problems and missing bits, I found it very stable
and fairly good to use (consider latest Firefox,
OpenSSH/OpenSSL/OpenLDAP, OpenOffice, LibreOffice /SFE/, TimeSlider,
VirtualBox, etc).

Best regards.

Everyone would check articles of the others and make changes as needed,

Bare in mind that if it is to be wihi about using Openindiana it is best
to be hosted on Openindiana hosting infrastructure, precisely to protect
freedom of expression and not to fall dependant on external services
that may be availabel one day and another day may be not.

Well, and the natural 'somewhere' for that topic could be OI wiki, I guess. :-)

Only question that comes to mind is, if it wouldn't be better to start with 
/dev (or /hipster for that matter) themselfs? Because that's where the most 
recent Tomcat is 6.0.37, the latest httpd is 2.2.26, the most up -to-date JDK 
is 1.6.0_26 etc. Or what is the idea behind what package is to go to which 
repository?

Re: [OpenIndiana-discuss] Hipster upgrade problem

[Stefan Müller-Wilken]

What I'm feeling quite uneasy with is the fact that we now have two 
distributions: hipster that gets more recent software packages & security fixes 
and dev that is said to be the more (or only?) stable choice. Or in other 
words: choose stability _OR_ security - a no-win-situation.

How can we get past this? Either with a well defined approach for staging 
packages from hipster to dev or by providing a bullet-proof list of steps on 
how to upgrade packages in dev directly, similar to 
http://wiki.openindiana.org/oi/Building+with+oi-userland but for dev, not 
hipster.

Or am I missing an important aspect here?

Please post below quotes on public mailing list.

Actually hipster is verly lively and very easily goes where You want it
to go.
If You try to contribute to it, not only using it every day and testing it,
but posting bug reports, ideas, articles, porting requests and porting
packages and fixing existing bugs without making new ones, it can
totally work your way.

It needs investment of your time and knowledge and expending it, like
every free software OS distribution,
and including yourself and more people in the process actually makes
sure if works as expected fro you.
If you upgrade to it or do fresh install and update, start using it and
articulate what you want, everything is possible.

Re: [OpenIndiana-discuss] Hipster upgrade problem

[Stefan Müller-Wilken]

Hmmm... so the better approach for Internet facing nodes is to move on to 
/hipster but be defensive in your update policy? Because with what you say and 
in contrast to Udo, I'd rather call /dev than /hipster going nowhere as more 
and more /dev packages have reached EOL in their respective projects.

One thought: would it be possible to tag certain Hipster revisions as 'de-facto 
stable' and publish a small tutorial how to upgrade to such point releases? I 
feel we'll need a sort of stable ground to convince people to put faith in OI.

There was initially a call to have "stable", "dev" and "nightly"
repositories, with a reliable version of "dev" being pushed to "stable", and 
"nightly" being a reliable-ish version of "nightly". This however fell away due 
to the wants of the "dev" team to stay with Studio and the "hipster" team 
wanting to move to gcc.  The split caused problems where the "dev" branch 
effectively stopped generating new code and all development moved to the 
"hipster" branch.

After the "dev" branch fell silent for about a year, Hans Rosenfeld, managed to 
rebuild and repackage the "dev" branch to use the hipster package versioning 
system, allowing for the first time those who were on dev a9 to potentially 
upgrade to hipster, while this moves them to a more "nightly" approach, and can 
cause issues with graphics drivers and certain java packages, or cause you to 
upgrade any applications that require a specific version of php/java/openssl, 
the kernel that is running on the system should, in general, be considered to 
be stable ...

There is no team in place to create a "stable", a "dev" and a "nightly"
now, and because of the work involved, the size of the team, and the status of 
the testing process, even getting a new "dev" would be hard work.

My advice though is to not upgrade all the time (weekly/monthly might suit you 
best), to keep all of your data out of the root of your disk (e.g.
rpool/export/home, so that it is separate from the BE) and to keep at least
2 BE's so that you can go back if you find that something has broken.

Just my 2cents.

Re: [OpenIndiana-discuss] Hipster upgrade problem

[Stefan Müller-Wilken]

Full 'thumbs up' to all you've said. I admit that I've treated SFE as part of 
the core.  My bad, I'll fix that following your suggestions and report.

Regarding maintaining and supporting OI, I know what you mean: I'm always happy 
to see someone coming back to my NWAM wiki topic. :-)

And I agree there is a lot of room for PR - just alone from looking at the 
website. :-)

As for contributing packages, I think it would help to have a full tutorial 
starting wirh preparing a packaging zone, downloading a tgz package from a 
source repository (e. g. latest tomcat) over creating IPS metadata to packaging 
and lastly delivering to the maintainers placed on the wiki. There was one for 
SFE I remember being fairly complex - but we'd need this for dev with the 
minimum number of steps just to upgrade an existing package... or is this 
already available somewhere on the net?

[OpenIndiana-discuss] Hipster upgrade problem

[Stefan Müller-Wilken]

Dear all,

Whereas my first oi151_a9 installation upgraded noiselessly, the second one 
runs into a catch 22 situation around Perl. Perl 5.10 sits the way of a 5.22 
to-be-installed version while removing it first will not work due to lots of 
fundamental packages depending on Perl. Anyone an idea how to handle this 
situation gracefully?

Cheers
Stefan

Re: [OpenIndiana-discuss] Hipster upgrade problem

[Stefan Müller-Wilken]

Hi Nikola,

so that means that it is currently luck if the upgrade will work and in this 
particular case there's no way to force the upgrade to Perl 5.22? Too bad. :-(

Talking about contribution: https://www.illumos.org/projects/openindiana/issues 
is still the best starting point for helpers, right?

Cheers
 Stefan

Hipster has not been freezed in upgradable state so YMMV.

I suggest install inside Virtualbox and then do zfs send/zfs receive of both 
system dataset and user dataset of user made during install, so you can log in.
Previously one can make new BE with beadm , where zfs receive would come,  
mount it with beadm and empty it. That way you can have fresh install that you 
can test and contribute to.

Be prepared that Hipster is work in progress and new contributors are badly 
needed, and many of the applications I use core dumps recently.

Re: [OpenIndiana-discuss] Zone install personalities?

[Stefan Müller-Wilken]

Hmm... seems as if the -m parameter has not made it into Illumos. :-(

So, what is the best (and documented) way to preload zones with certain 
software packages on 'zoneadm install' or first 'zoneadm boot'?

Dear all,

is there a documented way to define and specify certain personalities when 
installing OI zones? Just to fire up another user zone on demand or add a node 
to your httpd round robin. I know this can ultimately be done using AI but is 
there a less complex way, maybe via brands? Has anyone ever documented this? 
Thanks for insights...

[OpenIndiana-discuss] Zone configuration broken in Hipster 2015-10?

Dear all,

could it be that Hipster has a broken zone initialization code? In contrast to 
oi151_a9 I get errors ZFS dataset errors when initializing a new zone. I can

Hi. I don't think so. Ensure that underlying file systems don't try to mount 
over non-empty directories or have some similar issues.

Re: [OpenIndiana-discuss] Zone configuration broken in Hipster 2015-10?

[Stefan Müller-Wilken]

Ah, stupid me. I had the rpool/zones for some reason flagged 'zoned' and thus 
could not mount it. After clearing the 'zoned' flag and mounting rpool/zones it 
started working again. No idea how that had gone astray in the first place...

Thanks for that! :-)

I don't know about similar problems with ipkg zones. Likely, you had 
/zones/myzone directory or something similar + some effects of overmounting. 
What happens if you uninstall the zone, destroy rpool/zones/myzone, rm -fr 
/zones/myzone and try to reinstall zone?

I've just checked...

# zfs list -r rpool/zones

Re: [OpenIndiana-discuss] - Gnome panel CPU consumption in oi_151a9

[Stefan Müller-Wilken]

Hmmm... that does not seem to work. But I have a little more detailed 
description now:

- log in and you don't see a panel at all (although the process is running)
- pkill gnome-panel, restart it and the panel shows up
- CPU load is and stays normal until you ...
- log off via system menu

After logging off, the gnome-panel process will stay alive with a CPU load 
climbing to around 12% and staying there. For the records: the machine is a 
oi151_a7 upgraded to _a8 and then _a9. We didn't see the problems with _a7 and 
_a8 but have them since _a9. :-(

Hello Stefan
 I'm currently struggling with one of my OpenIndiana servers  - in fact the 
 only one with installed desktop - where Gnome panel chews has gone wild after 
 upgrading to oi_151a9. Since then, Gnome panel eats some 12 - 50 percent CPU 
 time. Anything I can do about that? The customer insists on a desktop 
 environment for the server, so switching to TTY mode is not an option. :-(
I'm not sure but I think I had such an issue also in the past.
I did not investigate much in troubleshooting, I had found out that the
issue is coming from a item running on the panel (in my case the
SystemMonitor)
I removed the SystemMonitor and added it back and the load has been gone

Good luck

Hi Tim,

I've had another look using 'truss -p' and what I see is that gnome-panel is 
repeating the following line just like mad:

...
ioctl(4, FIONREAD, 0x080442A0)  = 0
...

over and over again and ad infinitum. Looks like some polling gone astray... :-(

Re: [OpenIndiana-discuss] use cases of Sun Studio-compiled C++ libraries on OI

[Stefan Müller-Wilken]

Hi Alexander,

while not exactly in your problem class, I have a similar case: compiling httpd 
 modules (e.g. mod_security in my case) using gcc will make httpd crash on 
startup. You either need Sun Studio or drop the packaged Apache and compile 
yourself. So this is another case where it would be beneficial/necessary to 
move on to using gcc instead of Sun Studio...

Cheers

Betreff: [OpenIndiana-discuss] use cases of Sun Studio-compiled C++ libraries 
on OI

Hello.
I'd like to hear about people who now hardly depends on Sun Studio-compiled C++ 
libraries AND use OpenIndiana. Do you have software which can't be recompiled 
with GCC? Do you know commercial software which depend on the libraries?

I mean the following OI packages:
  database/postgres/library/c++/libpqxx
  library/c++/glibmm
  library/c++/libxml++
  library/c++/net6
  library/c++/obby
  library/c++/sigcpp
  library/c++/stdcxx
  library/desktop/c++/cairomm
  library/desktop/c++/gtkmm
  library/desktop/c++/mm-common
  library/desktop/c++/pangomm

I'd like to drop them and replace by g++-compiled (incompatible) versions. Who 
will be affected?

If there are some specific libraries of interest, we can discuss ways to move 
them to alternative locations (e.g. /usr/CC/). If you need them, do you need 
just binaries (*.so* files) or actually compile software using these libraries 
and Sun Studio?

For example, we could just preserve the contents of these packages in some 
public place or deliver some renamed packages, if it's really needed. But I'd 
like to avoid the later option.

I don't speak about system/library/c++/sunpro, this one will be preserved.

The solution is to wipe the slices reported as corrupted using a dd

 From something I did several years

 for a 2 slice mirror (c0d0s9  c1d0s9).  I would
 like to make the message go away.  There is nothing to
 recover and the slices referenced are too small to form a
 new pool and cannot be enlarged.

 I've searched in vain for an explanation of how to make this
 go away or a hint as to where zpool was getting the
 information.

 I've tried every zpool subcommand that seems as if it might
 be relevant usually w/ a pool does not exist result.

 Does anyone have any insight, hints or suggestions?
 Where does zfs hide this info?

I am using FF 27.0.1 on Solaris 11.1 and do not have such problem.

E.g. I am downloading a large ISO file to a local directory.
During the download, FF creates an empty file with the final filename
and a second *.part in the same local directory.
When it is done, the *.part file is moved to the final filename.

0   IMAGE_Disk1.iso
261754987   IMAGE_Disk1.iso.part

It does not use /tmp or any other temp dir.
Are you saving to a local drive or to NFS? Perhaps it is different on NFS?

[OpenIndiana-discuss] LDAP connector and groupOfUniqueNames

[Stefan Müller-Wilken]

Dear all,

I'm experimenting with the LDAP connector and run into a problem with LDAP 
groups. When ever I query a group, the filter will be 
(((objectclass=top)(objectClass=groupOfUniqueNames)(...)) with the ellipsis 
coming from the configured uidAttribute. As the relevant groups are of 
objectclass group rather than groupOfUniqueNames, all searches fail.

Question: am I missing a configuration parameter to set the group's object 
class? Unfortunately I may not change the queried LDAP so changing the search 
filter is my only way.

Betreff: [OpenIndiana-discuss] LDAP connector and groupOfUniqueNames

Dear all,

I'm experimenting with the LDAP connector and run into a problem with LDAP 
groups. When ever I query a group, the filter will be 
(((objectclass=top)(objectClass=groupOfUniqueNames)(...)) with the ellipsis 
coming from the configured uidAttribute. As the relevant groups are of 
objectclass group rather than groupOfUniqueNames, all searches fail.

Question: am I missing a configuration parameter to set the group's object 
class? Unfortunately I may not change the queried LDAP so changing the search 
filter is my only way.

Cheers
 Stefan

Betreff: [OpenIndiana-discuss] Nwam interfaces and aliases

Hello all,

I am still a newb with nwam and ipadm, and recently failed to add an alias ipv4 
interface to an nwam-managed interface (needed to add an address in a specific 
subnet to contact a factory-defaulted device, while the default address is from 
dhcp).

The old ifconfig addif said it added the alias but nothing happened. The 
dmesg logs revealed that nwam instantly killed the address it did not set up.

Adding with ipadm also failed for some syntax reason. Maybe the examples from 
internet are obsolete or are for oracle solaris.

Ultimately i created a vnic and ifconfig'ed that. But i'm still curious if a 
proper CLI-friendly method exists.

I actually don't think that using NWAM is a matter of potential device

If you're not planning on moving this computer between several wireless

physical:nwam ...

On my laptop, I run nwam, but on the servers that use wire connections I
use non-nwam, and generally if they're going to sit still for a long time,
I even make them static IP's.

adding and removing virtual interfaces with nwam is a bit of a ball-ache,
adding them with ipadm/dladm is easy :)

[OpenIndiana-discuss] ZFS pool layout - request for opinion

[Stefan Müller-Wilken]

Dear all,

one thing I stumble over again and again is ZFS pool layout for 6 disk servers 
(e.g. 1 HU ProLiants) . What I do so far is reserving disk 1  2 for the rpool 
mirror and put disks 3 - 6 into a RAIDZ-1 data pool. I don't really like this 
layout as it means wasting a lot of space on the rpool while having only 
minimal redundancy for data. What do others do to combine space efficiency with 
bootability and redundancy?

Cheers

Re: [OpenIndiana-discuss] ZFS pool layout - request for opinion

[Stefan Müller-Wilken]

Disks are cheaper than data - that is indeed true. So you're putting data into 
a four-time mirrored configuration? Or RAIDZ-1 or RAIDZ-2?

The question is more of maximum capacity. If you're dedicating two disks to the 
root pool, you're left with max. 4 4TB disks for the rest - effectively wasting 
6TB of potential space. Booting RAIDZ pools is not possible, right? If it was, 
you could put all six disks in one large RAIDZ and cut rpool and data out of 
that, no?

Basically the same thing in our 6 disk systems.

We generally have 2 256Gb disks in the mirrored root pool, and 4 4Tb disks
mirrored in the datapool ... but disks are cheap overall, compared to
your data.

 Would running pkg via zlogin be better?

It would be roughly equivalent in terms of command-line scripting,
and would only influence the zones running at the moment. Also,
such installation would rely on the package servers configured and
available in the local zone (if any). Although pkg via zlogin has
the benefit of instantly launching some SMF wrappers that the new
package might provide, etc. So these are quite different methods...

By the way, I saw that SVR4 pkgadd done into a local zone from the GZ
(as an altroot) sometimes fails with an error related to the content
of $ZONEROOT/etc/zones/index: the zone path there (/) is invalid
in the GZ context. I have to script up commenting away this entry
(or renaming the file) before pkgadd and returning it after.
Would this be considered a bug worthy of mentioning in the issue
tracker? (Now that some people seem offensive about others suggesting
what people should do, I guess I should ask about every one of my
crazy-or-not ideas and RFEs ;) )


 it is a
 bit clunky, so I wonder if I missed some option to just have the
 pkg(5) program itself install the named package into all available
 local zones?

 If not, does this sound like a worthwhile RFE for those who can
 do and don't know what to do next? :^)


 When reimplementing zones for Tribblix (where I have both legacy
 whole/sparse zones and the ipkg-style independent zones) I
 steered away from the old SVR4 behaviour of controlling packages
 (after zone installation)  from the global zone. It adds horrendous
 complexity to the packaging system. It's far better to loop over a list
 of zones and run the packaging commands in each zone than to do
 it from the global zone. (And that way you can manipulate an arbitrary
 subset of zones depending on need. Besides, combining simpler
 commands is the unix way.)

You are probably right. Still, at the moment this requires me to type
in the commands involved upon every case of a major (home-brewn)
package upgrade, or distribute a script to manage the process, which
is a bit inconvenient. I wonder if some automation for this belongs
in the common illumos-gate (whether as part of pkgadd and pkg(5),
or as a separate utility script)?

 @Jim: do you still remember what you've done to fix the problem?

I believe I defined the paths to home directories in smbautohome, i.e.

# cat /etc/smbautohome
*   /export/home/

The individual user-home datasets have sharesmb=off

Now when the windows user contacts the server and is authorized (by
the name-password popup or by AD domain integration) he only sees
his home directory and shares with explicit sharesmb settings (and
which don't have a dollar sign in the end - which can be used to
hide some shares).

For the latter example, now that the fileserver has migrated to OI,
it can use CIFS child mounts (so that users can browse sub-datasets
as normal sub-directories in a single share). However, the default
automagic of this implementation created sort of weird names of
the child-dataset shares (based on full dataset name rather than
sharesmb=name=xxx of the parent dataset), and what's worse - they
were visible names. I prettied this up by explicitly renaming the
child datasets' cifs names so they are not visible, but can be
browsed by both direct request and via pretty recursion:

# zfs list -o sharesmb,name -r
pond/export/DUMP/manual/oldsystems/windows
SHARESMB   NAME
name=Backups-OldWindows
pond/export/DUMP/manual/oldsystems/windows

What needs to be done to capture this as a market share (actually, the

[OpenIndiana-discuss] 151a8 boot problems

Hmmm... I've booted from DVD, switched to command line, mounted rpool and then 
diff'ed the stage1 and stage2 binaries. They are identical, so that can't be a 
problem.  But things are getting even weirder. I booted from DVD, then 
chain-booted into the HD installation, reinstalled boot loader via installgrub 
and rebooted. The server went into GRUB menu without a problem and did that 
again as l resetted from GRUB menu.

But getting into GRUB menu works only until I boot through into multi user for 
the first time. After that, any subsequent boot will end in GRUB _ or GRUB 
loading stage2

 not quiet sure, but I guess you have to:

 b) import -f rpool
 c) use stage1 and stage 2 files from that booted media (not sure if

 not quiet sure, but I guess you have to:
 a) boot from DVD (not USB)
 b) import -f rpool
 c) use stage1 and stage 2 files from that booted media (not sure if
 /boot/grub/ is linked properly)

Re: [OpenIndiana-discuss] 151a8 boot problems

[Stefan Müller-Wilken]

Okay, if the partition table is messed up, how can I get out of this alive?

I have two disks with this layout forming a root pool. Is it possible to detach 
one of them from the root pool, recreate the partition table properly and then 
put it back into the mirror to get the data from the other one. Then do the 
same other way around to also fix the second partition table. Is that the right 
procedure to not lose the whole root pool?

Apart from that: What would be the correct partition table in this case?

Cheers
 Stefan

[OpenIndiana-discuss] 151a8 boot problems - SOLVED

[Stefan Müller-Wilken]

Just to close the case: the problems indeed were caused by the overlap between 
slice 0 and slice 8. After reformatting and making slice 0 start at cyl 1 the 
problems stopped. And that indeed was super elegant the OpenIndiana way: just 
detached one of the two mirrored disks from rpool, repartitioned  relabled it, 
installed GRUB and then attached it again. After resilvering, I set the now 
fixed drive as boot LUN in SmartArray, rebooted from that and repeated for the 
other one. Done!

Thanks, Predrag and Hans for your hints. I love this community! :-)

Re: [OpenIndiana-discuss] sparc support

[Stefan Müller-Wilken]

Sure, why not. What do you propose needs to be done to facilitate a) and b)?

Hmmm... I thought the original post was by Ben, being willing to offer a stack 
of recommissioned Sparc hardware under the condition that it would be actively 
used for the Sparc port. So, if you would offer Martin online access to that 
hardware to get forward with OpenSXCE, it would at least help *one* Sparc port. 
And as Martin's work is open source, it could be used as a nucleus for OI/SPARC 
and thus get one step closer to b). No?

Cheers
 Stefan

I already did offer a bunch of SPARC hardware, wired up, installed and
ready to go, at no charge, but no maintainers stepped up to the plate,
so I'm kind of skeptical there's interest in this direction. I could be
wrong and perhaps I just didn't reach the right people, but my effort
was made public on the mailing lists and in my experience, the response
was almost completely silence (one brave soul did ask for a root account
on these machines and I sent it to him, but he never used it).

Betreff: [OpenIndiana-discuss] 151a9 does not boot

151a9 update went without problems, but the updated version goes into
reboot loop immediately after SunOS... initial boot message. The
machine is Athlon XP (32bit).

In verbose mode a number of messages appear, something like
x86feature=something and the last message shows amount of RAM
available. The messages disappear very quickly, as a reboot followed.
Hitting Pause/Break key does not help.

Had to boot back into 151a8 BE.

Has anyone tried 151a9 on a 32bit hardware?

Dmitry.

Hi,

#oi-dev pointed me at this thread and I feel obligated to speak up
now. I have a working build of most of 151a8 for SPARC that I've built
on an old Fire V210 in our machine room, and if you can offer me
access to better hardware, I'd be happy to use it to build a more
complete version. I'm also happy to offer people the install ISO and
repo I've built, but I'd rather it not be announced as official yet,
since much remains to be done before it's up to the same standards as
the x86 port.

Please cc me or reply directly to me if you want to talk about making
this happen; I'm not subbed to oi-discuss because my inbox is already
perpetually overflowing.

Thanks,

 Any idea what might have happened or where to look?

Re: [OpenIndiana-discuss] denyhosts IPS package?

[Stefan Müller-Wilken]

Hi Gary,

haven't looked at sshguard so far and it is definitely worth a look. 
'Lightweight' sounds quite attractive. :-) Ultimately I'd also like to secure 
IMAP (I haven't dared opening to the world for the missing dictionary attack 
protection) etc. but maybe that's a second step. So, if I understand you right, 
sshguard currently requires manual installation but will work as a first class 
SMF citizen afterwards?

Stefan,

Assuming you use ssh for remote login then I have updated sshguard so it
works on OpenIndiana.  It will monitor log files to identify attacks and
then uses ipfilter to block them.  I had to change the check for ssh
invalid password to properly match OpenIndiana/Solaris ssh messages and
updated the ipfilter insertion statement to match my ipfilter setup
(specify which interface and add group tag). I also put together a
rudimentary SMF file to make it a proper service.

I personally prefer sshguard over fail2ban because it is so
lightweight.  Once it started blocking brute force attacks on my server
(which was often) they suddenly stopped.  Sshguard also can do the same
for various MTA and other application logins but ssh is the only one
I've tested.  Let me know if you want what I've done.

Do you require password authentication or can you require only key access?

Disabling password authentication prevents the dictionary and other brute force 
password attempts.

You might also consider setting up a couple of jump boxes and then use ipfilter 
or external firewall to only allow ssh traffic from those jump boxes. If you go 
this route remember to use proxycommand to relay the connection and not to 
store any keys on the jump box.

Re: [OpenIndiana-discuss] Fw: Forgot Zone Root Password, Redirect X inside Zone, Reinstall Zone

Why don't you just copy the password (i.e. the crypted part between the first

your root zone into the /etc/shadow's definition of your standard user account

Can't you just zlogin as root from the global zone? Then you can run
passwd and set up a new root password.

I have to log in as root in order to run zlogin

and I can't run : zlogin -l root zonename
the reply was : Login incorrect

So the only option is to run : zlogin -C zonename

But since I removed the password field of user root on /mypool/root/etc/shadow
into : root::6445::

when I login to the zone, it says : pam_authtok_get: login: empty password not 
allowed for root from localhost

I wonder why anybody else can zlogin as root with the password taken out, while 
I can't

Re: [OpenIndiana-discuss] 151a8 text installer: unable to login?

[Stefan Müller-Wilken]

Hi Cal,

text installer will lead to text login prompts after reboot. You can switch on 
graphical interface but that's not the default. The requirement to use ESC+# 
instead of function keys might come from the terminal emulation. You can change 
the terminal type before switching into colored ncurses mode with 
sun-terminal being the default. Function keys do work for Virtual Box, by the 
way, so that can't be a fundamental problem.

As for the account problems: root will never work as a login name in multi user 
mode under OpenIndiana for security reasons. Anyway, the function key issue 
could hint at general keyboard mapping problems (at least at initial 
configuration time). Have you tried typing both the user name _and_ password in 
clear text, i.e. in the user name field, to make sure you end up with the right 
characters in the password field? Sometimes the mapping of standard (y vs. z is 
always worth a look in Germany) or special characters (,;.# etc.) can give you 
a hard time, making it a good idea to check designated contents of password 
fields in clear text first.

If that does not bring success, then you should boot to single user and try 
logging in as root from there...

Cheers
 Stefan

Betreff: [OpenIndiana-discuss] 151a8 text installer: unable to login?

New here ...

Installing 151a8 on ESXi to have a look at OI ahead of possibly
deploying on a very large archive server.

Install went fine (aside from requiring ESC+2 to move through config
pages?).  On reboot, i only encountered a text login prompt.  I could
not log in as root or the user configured during installation.

ssh was running but also refused login (with failures reported to the
test console in ESXi OI guest)

Attempted installing 3 times (subsequent installs correctly used F-keys
to page, btw).  Same result each time.

Going to try the LiveCD installer instead, but thought this might be a
known issue with the text installer?

Also: Should the end result of a text install/reboot result in a
graphical login screen or text?

Technically - I think you may, just like you can add SFE repos:

# pkg publisher

openindiana.org   mirror   online   http://n54l:10002/

sfe   origin   online

sfe-encumberedorigin   online
http://pkg.openindiana.org/sfe-encumbered/


One repository is your system default (see pkg set-publisher
--search-first) in case you specify incomplete package-version
identifiers and more than one repo contains a hit to your pattern.

*Probably*, adding the XStreamOS repo and installing the packages
with complete resource ID's should not break your OS. But these
packages may pull dependencies which may conflict (i.e. same libs),
so you should rather test this in a new BE and/or a test local zone
first.

[OpenIndiana-discuss] OpenIndiana USB 3 support

[Stefan Müller-Wilken]

I've seen that Solaris 11.1 includes an USB 3 capable xhci module (see 
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E26502_01/html/E29006/devusbover-9.html) . Could that 
be recycled under OpenIndiana, just as Solaris 11 NIC drivers can be used 
interchangably?

Re: [OpenIndiana-discuss] OpenIndiana USB 3 support

[Stefan Müller-Wilken]

It's not that I would advise doing so -  for the licensing issues only to start 
with. As I said, it was more the possibility to do so that I wondered about.

You're absolutely right: I would never ever consider that for production server 
use. But I havent't seen any requirement for USB 3 in that domain so far - and 
that is the only area I currently use OI for...

Am 12.12.2013 um 21:22 schrieb Jonathan Adams t12nsloo...@gmail.com:

 In order to get the closed USB 3 binaries from Solaris 11, you have to buy
 a copy of Solaris 11 and have a support contract. You also need to agree to
 the license terms which would basically stop you taking part of the
 operating system and giving it away.

 So there is a remote possibility that the USB drivers _might_ work from
 Solaris 11, but there is a high chance that your system will bork
 completely if you have a low level driver that doesn't work correctly, and
 a high chance that some applications that talk to the USB will not work at
 all with the new driver.

 If you _were_ planning on ever trying this, I would seriously advise you to
 clone your boot-environment so that you can get back to a working system
 quickly.

 Better to wait, support, encourage, or if you are able get involved with
 creating a working USB3 for Illumos native.

I'm seeing a strange behavior with FMT fault notifications that someone maybe 
can explain. I have enabled SMTP notifications using ...

svccfg setnotify problem-diagnosed mailto:root@localhost
svccfg setnotify problem-repaired mailto:root@localhost
svccfg setnotify problem-resolved mailto:root@localhost

Then, after pulling a hard drive, I see no fault messages at all. Only after 
putting the hard drive back in, I get all three messages in one go: Fault 
Management Event: hostname:ZFS-8000-QJ ... Fault Management Event: 
hostname:FMD-8000-4M ... Fault Management Event: hostname:FMD-8000-6U. Huh?!

Previously I received ZFS-8000-QJ immediately after the fault being noticed and 
both FMD-8000-4M and FMD-8000-6U after reinsertion. Am I missing something here?

Cheers
 Stefan

Re: [OpenIndiana-discuss] Creating .volsetid without mkisofs

[Stefan Müller-Wilken]

Good to hear we're getting closer to the root cause. :-)

Can you mayberecheck your ISO image? I have a oi-dev-151a8-text-x86.iso 
downloaded yesterday and unpacked a minute ago and it contains a .volsetid 
file. Would be surprised if it was missing in the UI version of the ISO.

Cheers

Betreff: [OpenIndiana-discuss] Creating .volsetid without mkisofs

I've found the beginnings of my problems (thanks, Stefan). The 151a8
LiveCD did not lay down a /.volsetid on my root filesystem (rpool). The
one on the LiveCD doesn't work. So, how do I create one (with the right
value) from scratch? I don't think mkisofs will work.

TIA

Re: [OpenIndiana-discuss] Split-root installations

Hi Jim,

first of all thanks for your efforts! Although I don't have a clear picture 
here, my biggest concern  would be breaking upstream compatibility for fairly 
special case. Would we run that risk?

 cut, cat and grep are ksh builtins. Use builtin cmdname (run builtin

 Most nawk usage can be replaced by ksh pattern matching, leaving
 sort(1) as the only command to worry about.

Thanks for the suggestions, and they did help me convert the scripts
for iptun and physical:default into code that does not complain when
run without /usr (certainly not an exhaustive test, but at least the
near-default cases work well now). Scripts did become uglier a bit,
especially when NAWK was replaced by bulkier shell constructs, but
in exchange there is one less subprocess type to fork :)

For good old ipconfig based on /etc/hostname.* files (and DHCP) this
can easily be made to work with a minimal root filesystem and ksh93.
For ipadm and for NWAM - not so, a working /usr is needed by those.

The NWAM method script is heavily dependent on /usr, with calls to
SMF admin commands, LDAP client and so on, and there is no easy way
to make it fully executable in absence of /usr (possibly one might
carve out some pre- and post- /usr logic to split into two services...
but what for?)

I wonder how (un)acceptable would it be to enhance the fs-root script
instead - when it makes sure that /usr/bin is available (the /usr is
mounted), it could invoke svcadm restart of the active instance of
the network/physical service (if any) and perhaps iptun which depends
on this. This would probably be proper after the script calls devfsadm
to detect devices for newly mounted drivers (which may include more
NICs than were available on rootfs).

In the end, I think this problem boils down to specific cases with
opposite dependencies, since the clean way to do this is with SMF
somehow:

1) / and /usr are local (ZFS, UFS, whatever) and don't depend on the
network (NFS, iSCSI, whatever) - then network/physical should depend
on filesystem/root;

2) these filesystems (both or one) depend on networking to be active
and provided by the OS (i.e. GRUB which TFTP/PXE-boots a miniroot over
LAN is probably not the use-case) - then the filesystems' SMF services
should depend on networking services.
Although it can be argued that  /etc/fs/nfs/mount depends on at least
/usr/lib/libsmbios.so.1, so the miniroot which boots the server and
mounts the NFS root would (by default) have some /usr of its own...

Ultimately, these can be (and are) different root service instances
which can have very different dependency graphs...

What would the esteemed community experts suggest?

Thanks,
//Jim

Hi Rainer,

have you looked at

That should describe reasonably well how to set a static address. I'm using the 
described procedure regularly on oi_151a7 and oi_151a8 installations...

Hi Rainer,

Yep. Didn't work for me, as I need the system to boot right into a
networking state. Like all of the NWAM documentation I found, I had to
log in before the networking came up.


what do you mean by 'boot into a networking state'? Simply boot and configure a 
static network address without your intervention? And we're talking about 
oi_158a installed to a disk and booting via GRUB? That should work!

Can you give me the output of ...

# svcs -xv
# svcs nwam
# nwamcfg list
# nwamadm list

... and, if you're using the automatic profile and your NCU is e1000g0 (modify 
it otherwise) the output of:

# nwamcfg select ncp automatic; select ncu ip e1000g0; list -a

Cheers
 Stefan.

Not anymore. Like I stated, I've now installed the text server version,

Do you need it to work hands-off, automagically after the first boot?

You can somewhat manage the system service profiles of the newly made
installation from the installer, though it may take a few attempts to
do so correctly. With the installed BE mounted (as /a), try these ways:

0) Set up NWAM the way you want in the LiveCD environment, including
a profile with static addressing, and copy the config files into your
installed BE (/a/etc/nwam/*). Maybe that would just work. If not...

1) reconfigure the service in the installed SMF repository:
:; echo repository /a/etc/svc/repository.db
select network/physical:nwam
setprop general/enabled = false
select network/physical:default
setprop general/enabled = true
exit | svccfg

2) If the service was not found in (1) as part of the repository,
it may be enabled at first boot via import of manifests, see under
/a/var/svc/manifests and /a/lib/svc/manifests for the files involved;
make backups and then adjustments to the XMLs ;)

3) Set an init-script (/a/etc/rc2.d/S01staticnet) that would do
the job as an ugly hack. Unpretty brutal things are effective :)

#!/bin/sh
[ x$1 = xstart -a ! -f /etc/.noFixNet ]  \
 svcadm disable -s network/physical:nwam  \
 svcadm enable -sr network/physical:default  \
 touch /etc/.noFixNet
### maybe do the ipadm tricks here as well?

If not ipadm, then precreate the old-school static-config files with
your config; maybe even protect them from first-boot automagic as
immutable:
:; cd /a/etc  /bin/chmod S+ci netmasks hostname.* resolv.conf \
nsswitch.conf defaultrouter defaultdomain

I really hope that at least some of these would work for you,
or would push in the right direction ;)

As already discussed in another thread a few days ago,
/hipster is NOT for production, but a bleeding edge testbed
for transition to gcc compiled OI. It can break at any time
and it can eat all you data and burn your house.
Do never expect at any time that this will work without flaw.
Do not even consider to use that in production.

OI /dev is the current near release-quality branch for
productive work.

[Stefan Müller-Wilken]

Well, the most interesting aspect of hipster vs. dev lies in its supplemental 
packages: PostgreSQL 9.3, to name just one. If those were available on dev, 
then that would relax the situation a lot. Or am I missing something here?

Cheers

 In regard to: Re: [OpenIndiana-discuss] Hipster ISOs, Stefan M?ller-Wilken...:

 Why don't we promote Hipster ISOs more visibly on openindiana.org? I
 mean, with the much more current set of packages

 Is hipster really that much newer that OI151a8?  Hipster certainly was
 newer when OI151a7 was the latest ISO, but I thought 151a8 incorporated
 many of the package updates that were part of hipster.  Obviously there's
 been some divergence since 151a8 was released, but 151a8 is not that old
 yet.

 Hi Stefan,

 yes, I am using /hipster for last couple months.
 It looks very promising (didn't crashed yet).
 As matter of fact, i am writing this from it, well latest from this morning:
 ---8---
 SunOS Release 5.11 Version illumos-a8039bf 64-bit
 ---8---

 ISO files you can find here (found on
 http://wiki.openindiana.org/oi/References+for+Development page):

 Regards.

Re: [OpenIndiana-discuss] Add Gnome to server install

[Stefan Müller-Wilken]

I'm still interested in an analysis. Could you issue the
commands I sent and report the output? Maybe I need to correct something on my 
wiki tutorial?

Cheers
 Stefan

 Good morning.

 They simply didn't work for me, and there are a few pages on the wiki with 
 differing instructions. I really don't care to waste another day on this 
 issue.

 To add Gnome, would a:

 pkg -R consolidation/gnome/gnome-corporation install entire
 do the trick? (Thanks for the pointer, Jim.)

[OpenIndiana-discuss] Using cfgadm to switch harddisk LEDs / 2nd try

[Stefan Müller-Wilken]

Hi there,

I suspect we're talking about a slightly different question.
All I actually do, and it's very simple, is use

cfgadm -c unconfigure

which turns on the ready-to-remove LED.

*ouch* seems I have expected too much magic. Thanks for putting me on the right 
track. ;-)

Cheers
 Stefan.

[OpenIndiana-discuss] CIFS approach to valid users etc.

[Stefan Müller-Wilken]

Hi there,

I'm currently configuring CIFS on one of my boxes (Oracle 11.1 this time, but I 
hope that does not matter) and I'm trying port over shares from Samba. While 
joining the domain worked (surprisingly) flawlessly, I have a bunch of 
questions regarding shares:

* How can I match the valid users parameter, e.g. valid users = user_a, 
user_b?

* How can I share directories located under users on a per user basis? With 
Samba, that's a path = %H/export...

* How can I set access control on a user basis, e.g. set a share read only for 
a group, read write for another etc.

Unfortunately there is not yet too much documentation available out there...

Cheers
 Stefan

[OpenIndiana-discuss] Using cfgadm to switch harddisk LEDs

I'm still struggling with using cfgadm to controll my T3-1 and DL380's SAS

Same situation with my DL380 server, so the question is: How is that supposed 
to work on the T3-1? How on other SAS controllers? Peter recently said that he 
would  successfully control the LEDs on his T3-x servers so it must be possible 
somehow...

Hi there,

have you looked at

quoting

 as  another source, you could also try fdisk to compare your two devices:

[OpenIndiana-discuss] Opinions on LSI RAID vs. ZFS

[Stefan Müller-Wilken]

Hi Peter,
hi list,

 If you have a SAS controller attached via the mpt_sas driver, for
 instance, you can absolutely expect hot plugged disks to go away and
 return automatically.  If not, then you are experiencing bugs in the
 system and should report them as such so that we can fix them.

Absolutely. And, to return to the original question, the on-board
SAS controllers on the T3-1 use mpt_sas, and hotplug just works.

(I still use cfgadm, but as a way to toggle the LEDs if the system
hasn't done so itself - such as when replacing a drive that is starting
to go bad but hasn't failed hard yet.)


fist thing I noticed is that the T3-1 indeed works with 8 drives from
its internal SAS controller. Good! Now one thing I haven't managed to
do yet is using cfgadm to switch locator and fault LEDs.
