 I had followed that before but I missed the vfs objects = zfsacl part. 
 Teach me to skip information.

Cool. Have you managed to make your ZFS time-slider snapshots visible using the 
vfs shadow_copy2 (?) facility?

 I also used the idmap config whiched help with my mapping of AD and LDAP.

 Hi,
 
 I will try here as my first port of call.
 
 I am using Samba to server files to our Windows users and I want them to

 Before any says anything I am doing this in a ZONE so CIFS server is not 
 available in Solaris zones.
 
 Well, it does not seem to work and I have followed a few blog entries but 
 they all give the same result:

[osol-discuss] SandyBridge support

2011-01-05 Thread Chris Ridd
Does Solaris have any enhancements (in public commits?) to support the new 
Intel SandyBridge chips?

AIUI some X support for SandyBridge was due in Solaris later this year 
(2010), so possibly is in S11 Express.

But what about support for other SandyBridge features? (UEFI, vector processing 
extensions?)

No, because that package system doesn't know what packages are a
problem. The package system intentionally allows you to install
and/or
create packages that constrain your system in a way that prevents
all or
certain parts of it from upgrading.

That's necessary functionality so that your system can be upgraded
properly from build to build.

However, it also means that it can't automatically determine when your
system should have been upgraded and when it should not be. It
only
knows what the packages you installed tell it.

With that said, you can tell it what you expect to happen by doing
things like this:

pkg install -nv ent...@0.5.11-0.151 \
`pkg list -H | grep 'consolidation/*incorporation' |\
awk '{print $1@0.5.11-0.151}'` 21  /tmp/pkg.debug

Then check the output like this:

grep -e FAIL -e incompatible /tmp/pkg.debug

If the grep produces anything, you'll need to look at the log file and
read through to determine what went wrong.

If the grep didn't produce anything, you likely didn't configure your
system according to the release notes. Check the configuration of your
publishers, verify that everything matches the release notes, and try
again.

 your suggestions will be greatly appreciated

Also bear in mind some of libc is not open-source (but the Illumos project is 
attempting to rectify that) so you will not be able to rebuild it.

Have you looked at using dtrace's pid provider instead? No need to recompile 
anything if that works for you...

 The keyboard mapping is now really unusable this is a result of an

 SMF.

It took a reboot for my workstation to recognise that I wanted UK-English as

 I suspect you will find that restarting your X session (either by logging out 
 manually or by restarting gdm to force a logout) would also work without 
 rebooting.

I think I tried that, but gdm still treated my \ key as a .

 I logged http://bugs.opensolaris.org/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=6976214 
 for this issue.
 The workaround is simple enough, and is actually the end result you want 
 anyway.

I didn't try restarting hal though.

 This is most likely the issue (assuming you've added the 'solaris' publisher 
 as described in the release notes).
 
 Per the release notes:
 
  http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/821-1479/fbdtw?l=ena=view
 
 ...PostgreSQL Versions 8.2, 8.3, and 8.4 have been removed.
 
 As amp-dev depends on SUNWphp52-pgsql (a PHP PostgreSQL library) which 
 depends on PostgreSQL, the package system is unable to move your system 
 forward.  It assumes you prefer to keep postgre, etc. working instead of 
 updating it to a point where software stops working.

Yes, that makes sense. I was also slightly curious what would happen since 
sunstudio doesn't appear to be in the new repos; maybe that's going to be a 
problem too.

 Yes, the messaging could be better here, but it's very difficult to divine 
 the intent of the user here.
 
 You'll need to remove amp-dev, all of the *php* and postgre packages.
 
 I believe that should allow you to upgrade (assuming there isn't some other 
 package in the way).


Nod. The image-update is now going a lot slower, so hopefully it is thinking 
about doing something useful this time :-)

It would be helpful if pkg could write out the list of pkgs that are stopping 
the image-update from moving forward. Producing a very similar boot env is 
not helpful, as you get fooled into a useless reboot.

But then, how often is pkg going to encounter this sort of incompatibility?

No real ideas - pam's a bit of a mystery to me - but could you get dtrace to 
help? Get a stack trace on the failing call to run_stack (which is what outputs 
that error) and maybe that gives an idea of which part of pam.conf is wrong.

Cheers,

Chris

Yes, it is the same thing.

Remember not to upgrade your zpool versions past the last version supported by 
your most recent live CD.

[osol-discuss] opensolaris iscsi target gives 10% performance compared to nexenta

2010-10-07 Thread chris
I have been testing nexenta against opensolaris 2009.06 as an iscsi target / 
storage repository for Xenserver 5.6 using the same hardware and vm 
configuration. The target has two xeon quad-core cpus, 4gb ram and 4 seagate 
drives with opensolaris on the first and a 1tb volume on other three.

Opensolaris seems to perform very badly compared to nexenta when performing 
sqlio tests on a Windows 2008 Server R2 virtual machine. The IOs/s and MB/s 
from opensolaris are apporximately 10% (300 and 20) of the results from nexenta.

Are there tweaks to opensolaris that will increase the iscsi performance and 
explain the difference in performance?

Thanks,

Chris

From:   Jim Grisanzio jim.grisan...@oracle.com
To: website-disc...@opensolaris.org, opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org



Following the updates to auth/repo last week, we are now ready to update
XWiki on Monday Oct 4th starting at 5 a.m. PDT. XWiki will be down for
approximately 1/2 hour. In this deployment XWiki will have a new
lightweight skin, which has better organization for layout and page
editing. Additionally, the watch lists feature is fixed, the subsites
menu has been moved out of the left nav to be a drop down menu, and the
three Collectives pages have been automated when creating and deleting
groups. The other changes are integration code updates and won't be
visible to users.

Re: [osol-discuss] [illumos-Developer] zpool upgrade and zfs upgrade behavior on b145

2010-09-29 Thread Chris Mosetick
Hi Cindy,

I did see your first email pointing to that
bughttp://bugs.opensolaris.org/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=6538600.
Apologies for not addressing it earlier.  It is my opinion that the behavior
Mike, and I http://illumos.org/issues/217 (or anyone else upgrading pools
right now) is seeing is a entirely new and different bug.  The bug you point
to, originally submitted in 2007 says it manifests itself before a reboot.
Also you say exporting and importing clear the problem.  After several
reboots, zdb still shows the older pool version, which means that this is a
new bug or perhaps the bug you are referencing is not listing clearly and
accurately what it should be and is incomplete.

Suppose an export and import can update the pool label config on a large
storage pool, great.  How would someone go about exporting the rpool the
operating system is on??  As far as I know, It's impossible to export the
zpool the operating system is running on.  I don't think it can be done, but
I'm new so maybe I'm missing something.

One option I have not explored that might work:  Booting to a live CD that
has the same or higher pool version present and then doing:   zpool import
 zpool import -f rpool  zpool export rpool  and then rebooting into the
operating system.  Perhaps this might be an option that works to update
the label config / zdb for rpool but I think fixing the root problem would
be much more beneficial for everyone in the long run.  Being that zdb is a
troubleshooting/debugging tool, I would think that it's necessary for it to
be aware of the proper pool version to work properly and so admins know
what's really going on with their pools.  The bottom line here is that if
zdb is going to be part of zfs, it needs to display what is currently on
disk, including the label config.  If I were an admin thinking about
trusting hundreds of GB's of data to zfs I would want the debugger to show
me whats really on the disks.

Additionally, even though zpool and zfs get version display the true and
updated versions, I'm not convinced that the problem is zdb, as the label
config is almost certainly set by the zpool and/or zfs commands.  Somewhere,
something is not happening that is supposed to when initiating a zpool
upgrade, but since I know virtually nothing of the internals of zfs, I do
not know where.

Sincerely,

-Chris

Re: [osol-discuss] [illumos-Developer] zpool upgrade and zfs upgrade behavior on b145

2010-09-29 Thread Chris Mosetick
Well strangely enough, I just logged into a OS b145 machine.  It's rpool is
not mirrored, just a single disk.  I know that zdb reported zpool version 22
after at least the first 3 reboots after rpool upgrade, so I stopped
checking.  zdb now reports version 27.  This machine has probably been
rebooted about five or six times since the pool version upgrade.  One should
not have to reboot six times!  More mystery to this pool upgrade behavior!!

Re: [osol-discuss] [illumos-Developer] zpool upgrade and zfs upgrade behavior on b145

2010-09-27 Thread Chris Mosetick
The strange behavior that I witnessed on the machine that had its hostname
renamed was never resolved or investigated further.  Luckily it was a
experiment/test machine.  About the zpool headers not getting updated after
a zpool upgrade?  I filled a bug on the Illumos bug tracker:

http://illumos.org/issues/217

Somehow my formatting on the bug entry got mangled. :)

Luckily this bug appears to just effect zdb.  The pools and file systems are
in fact upgraded after you initiate the upgrade.  FYI I have witnessed the
same behavior when upgrading pools created on on a clean OS b134 machine to
Open Indiana b147, zpool version 28.

I'm under the impression that this bug would not be difficult to fix, but
being that zdb does not seem to be well documented, maybe in fact it would
be hard to track down?

 Not sure what the best list to send this to is right now, so I have
 selected a few, apologies in advance.

 A couple questions.  First I have a physical host (call him bob) that was
 just installed with b134 a few days ago.  I upgraded to b145 using the
 instructions on the Illumos wiki yesterday.  The pool has been upgraded (27)
 and the zfs file systems have been upgraded (5).

 ch...@bob:~# zpool upgrade rpool
 This system is currently running ZFS pool version 27.
 Pool 'rpool' is already formatted using the current version.

 ch...@bob:~# zfs upgrade rpool
 7 file systems upgraded

 The file systems have been upgraded according to zfs get version rpool

 Looks ok to me.

 However, I now get an error when I run zdb -D.  I can't remember exactly
 when I turned dedup on, but I moved some data on rpool, and zpool list
 shows 1.74x ratio.

 ch...@bob:~# zdb -D rpool
 zdb: can't open 'rpool': No such file or directory

 Also, running zdb by itself, returns expected output, but still says my
 rpool is version 22.  Is that expected?

 I never ran zdb before the upgrade, since it was a clean install from the
 b134 iso to go straight to b145.  One thing I will mention is that the
 hostname of the machine was changed too (using these 
 instructionshttp://wiki.genunix.org/wiki/index.php/Change_hostname_HOWTO).
 bob used to be eric.  I don't know if that matters, but I can't open up the
 Users and Groups from Gnome anymore, *unable to su* so something is
 still not right there.

 Moving on, I have another fresh install of b134 from iso inside a
 virtualbox virtual machine, on a total different physical machine.  This
 machine is named weston and was upgraded to b145 using the same Illumos wiki
 instructions.  His name has never changed.  When I run the same zdb -D
 command I get the expected output.

 ch...@weston:~# zdb -D rpool
 DDT-sha256-zap-unique: 11 entries, size 558 on disk, 744 in core
 dedup = 1.00, compress = 7.51, copies = 1.00, dedup * compress / copies =
 7.51

 However, after zpool and zfs upgrades *on both machines*, they still say
 the rpool is version 22.  Is that expected/correct?  I added a new virtual
 disk to the vm weston to see what would happen if I made a new pool on the
 new disk.

 ch...@weston:~# zpool create test c5t1d0

 Well, the new test pool shows version 27, but rpool is still listed at
 22 by zdb.  Is this expected /correct behavior?  See the output below to see
 the rpool and test pool version numbers according to zdb on the host weston.


 Can anyone provide any insight into what I'm seeing?  Do I need to delete
 my b134 boot environments for rpool to show as version 27 in zdb?  Why does
 zdb -D rpool give me can't open on the host bob?

 Thank you in advance,

 -Chris

Re: [osol-discuss] Anonymous NFS file permissions

2010-09-15 Thread Chris Mosetick
You need to set permissions on the file system properly.  If you just want
everyone to have access:

zfs setsharenfs=name=chris,guestok=true tank/export/chris

for CIFS
zfs setsharesmb=name=chris,guestok=true tank/export/chris

you should also look at idmap for cifs:

read the manual first:

man idmap

My server is joined to active directory, using smbadm.  Here are the two
mappings that I'm currently using in my environment:

idamp add 
winname:administra...@mydomain.comwinname%3aadministra...@mydomain.com
unixuser:admin

idamp add wingroup:Domain Admins@mydomain.com unixgroup:sysadmin

those are the only two mappings I have had to set so far.  All the domain
users seem to work themselves out as long as I set permissions on the shares
having the Domain Administrator as owner.

idmap list

will display all your current mappings.

when you messup a whole bunch, idmap remove -a is nice.

[osol-discuss] Ldom freed mac address table , getting duplicate mac addresses

2010-08-16 Thread Chris
Greetings, 
I am having some issues with ldoms on separate systems, giving out duplicate 
mac addresses to ldoms and to vnet ports even.  It seems there is some 
particular mac in the freed mac address table, that the ldom manager keeps 
trying to pass out, but that mac is in use on another ldom on a separate 
system.  The separate systems are on some of the same interfaces, but not all 
the same interfaces, so the mac address algorithm is not working for me.  
Currently everytime I create an Ldom I put its mac address, and its vnets mac's 
into a spreadsheet and look for duplicates.  This cannot be the plan sun had 
when giving ldoms 512k mac addresses to pass out randomly.  I have 4 systems 
with maybe 15 ldoms on them and I am already seeing duplicates, something is 
not right there.  

Anyhow I am desperatly looking for this freed mac address db so I can use it 
to track the mac's possibly.  

Yes using the system to convert the ip into a mac is a way to do it, but that 
just does not seem like a good solution either.  

Thanks for any assistance or thoughts.

Sorry, but Tim Marsland has been fired on Oracle's behalf and now
works for Apple. Most other Solaris lead designers were send away by
Oracle, too.

 technology - do you want this to continue, or do you want OpenSolaris dead?

I would like to see the modernisation parts of ksh93-integration
ported to BSD, too. It would give it one of the fastest userlands ,
FreeBSD's userland would finally conform to the Single Unix Standard
and a few of Solaris and GNU features would make it there, too.

 While I have not been following this soap opera in excruciating
 detail

 John, I looked at it as some guy making a fair amount of noise and quoting 
 himself in his arguments. So like I said in an earlier message, I made a cup 
 of coffee and then felt that it wasn't worth looking at.

Did you read 
http://mail.opensolaris.org/pipermail/opensolaris-discuss/2010-May/056462.html?


 Personally I see the ksh93 shell work as some of the best open source 
 collaboration in modern UNIX(R) history. I fully expect that it will always 
 be around forever as some sort of package set to be installed.

I agree. Both the ksh93 and the modernisation project it spawned are
excellent work and would be of great benefit of Opensolaris.

But all that work appears to be fruitless if the intentions of Oracle
described in 
http://mail.opensolaris.org/pipermail/opensolaris-discuss/2010-May/056462.html
will be implemented.

 This proof-quotes from others came later!

 And, the fact, that side-by-side there's /usr/gnu/bin and /usr/bin shall
 indicate, that there's no FURTHER development of Solaris-tools, is
 ridiculous...

if 
http://mail.opensolaris.org/pipermail/opensolaris-discuss/2010-May/056462.html
turns out to be true then there will be development of Solaris-tools
but they will be based on GNU coreutils instead of the ksh93/AST
framework developed by Opensolaris in the last four years.

IMHO the ksh93/AST framework is superior but it looks Oracle's
management has already decided on this.

[osol-discuss] automake problem...

2010-04-10 Thread Chris Syntichakis
Hi,

I am trying to compile this (under svn_134) 
http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Dfu-util#Source_Code

The autogen.sh says 

Can't exec aclocal: No such file or directory at 
/usr/share/autoconf/Autom4te/FileUtils.pm line 326.
autoreconf: failed to run aclocal: No such file or directory

How can I find the 'aclocal' ? (what is the package name..)

thx

 I would have thought that Oracle would have tried to keep him on board the

That's not surprising. Gosling was for research and fair access,
Oracle wants monetize its investment in JAVA and Gosling only as
marketing figurehead. That conflict was brewing since a month and
Gosling... lost.

rumorRumor is that Gosling was escorted out of his office and set
into a cab to leave the campus immediately and not come back ever
again./rumor TheRegister may post the photos next Monday.

Let's hope that the same won't happen for Opensolaris, although the
chances are slim that this does not happen to lots of our lead
developers.

134 is too old - it predates the 'big'ol package rename' and an

[osol-discuss] Please help: Running OpenOffice in headless mode (on OpenSolaris)...

2010-01-19 Thread Chris Fleischmann
Hello all, I am trying to get my openoffice code to wkr under opensolaris 
without a monitor (a.k.a headless), so far I have tried the following 
connection string in my Java code (I am using the Java SDK 3.1 kit):

oooCommand = /opt/openoffice.org3/program/soffice| -nologo -nodefault 
-norestore -nocrashreport -nolockcheck -nofirststartwizard -headless| -display 
:1 -accept=socket,host=127.0.0.1,port=8100;urp;

which is run via the following code, Runtime.getRuntime().exec(oooCommand); 
using the bootstrapconnector code that ships with the SDK.

This executable is launched from my java servlet... The ps -ef listing shows 
the following... Of course whats worth noting is that my appserver process and 
forked openoffice process is a userid, not ROOT:

chr...@opensolaris:~$ ps -ef | grep gf21
  chrisf 20003 19820   0 23:18:35 pts/1   0:00 grep gf21

gf21 19975 19972   0 23:14:20 pts/2   0:00 -bash
gf21 19990 1   0 23:14:29 ?   0:19

gf21 1 19992   6 23:15:02 ?   3:32 
/opt/openoffice.org3/program/soffice.bin -nologo -nodefault -norestore -nocrash

In Solaris prior to running my smf start command for glassfish, I launch the 
virtual frame buffer (Xvfb) like so;

chr...@opensolaris:~$ ps -ef | grep Xv
  chrisf 20009 19820   0 23:19:50 pts/1   0:00 grep Xv
root 18469 9   0 19:51:58 ?   0:00 /usr/X11R6/bin/Xvfb :1 
-screen 0 1024x768x24 -fbdir /tmp

Things seem to work for a period of time, or rather up until I use the 
XTextViewCursor, although it seems to continue communicating (truss'ing the 
process its def. doing something), although it never seems to come out of this 
endless loop... and my code never finishes.

However, if I run the following 2 commands from a terminal session (logged in 
as gf21 via SSH) on the headless machine it seems to work...

export DISPLAY=127.0.0.1:1.0
asadmin start-domain domain1

-

However,  I am trying to automate the starting and stopping of glassfish using 
the Solaris SMF framework which thus far, works to start/stop etc... but seems 
to fail under the headless mode for my OpenOffice code?? Is there something I 
am missing, is it because the appserver is not being kicked off from a terminal 
shell and some how not inheriting any of the environment settings (like the 
export DISPLAY above)? My SMF for starting and stopping glassfish is as below.

Re: [osol-discuss] Very slow boot time ( 35minutes)

2009-12-01 Thread Chris
The boot log shown was from a boot with -v -m options.

I haven't been able to complete a successful boot today, using -kv -m or normal 
options.  For some attempts I forgot to start my timer, but they all ran passed 
one hour before I rebooted.

However, the SVN_125 boot (to console) did succeed.  It takes about 3 minutes.

Ok.  I'm stuck now.

My OS 2009.06 BEs won't boot, at least not within an hour.  That includes a 
safe snapshot turned into a BE.

The SVN_125 boots into console mode.  It won't go into multi-user mode, because 
svc:/system/device/audio can't be started.  Is it possible to remove the audio 
dependency from the mult-user service?

was responsible for the audio device issue on SVN_127 (its was always 127 not 
125 as I mentioned earlier).

The fix described worked a treat and the box now boots.

[osol-discuss] Very slow boot time ( 35minutes)

2009-11-30 Thread Chris
Just in the last week, I've started to experience very slow boot times, upwards 
of 35minutes.  Looking in the log, I see the following message repeated for

It may or may not be relevant, but I briefly did install an ide (ata) disk in 
the box about a week ago.  Normally, the box includes 4 sata disks and no pata 
disks.

What is going wrong with the boot process and what can I do to return to the 
more usual 3-5minute boot time?

What is a lot?

zfs list reports 773 snapshots.  Most of those are from the auto snapshot 
service.  I have 33 zfs file systems.

The auto snapshot service has been running for a long time.  I wouldn't think 
there would have been a significant change in the number of snapshots in the 
last week.

I'm running OpenSolaris 2009.06.

I've twice tried updating to the development version, the latest being SVN_125. 
 I've only been able to get it to boot to console - which it does manage in 
much less time than 35+ minutes.

I'm haven't figured out what I need to do to get it passed the console.

Re: [osol-discuss] How to work out where boot process fails

2009-11-24 Thread Chris
Thanks.

The console reported -m as an invalid option, but you got me looking in the 
right area.

Important changes:
- change console from graphics to text
- delete line containing splash graphic.

Now to try and resolve the actual boot issues.

First, the boot archive didn't math (fix with 'bootadm update-archive')
Second, it couldn't load the audio device driver so went into maintenance mode 
(fix with svcadmin disable audio)
Now it boots, but only to the console login.  It doesn't proceed on to the x 
login and if I login and startx, it hangs about and doesn't seem to do anything.

To be fair, I really only need remote ssh access.  Unfortunately, something 
isn't quite working with that and it rejects my key.  Back to the drawing board!

Re: [osol-discuss] Frustrated beyond belief trying to cobble together a zfs platform

2009-11-23 Thread Chris
r.g. I feel your pain.

I'd be careful of that board.  I have OpenSolaris installed on a box using a 
similar AMD chipset (780G in a Gigabyte MA78GM-S2H).  It works fine with 
2009.06, but not with either of the two releases prior to that.  And not with 
the recent development builds of 2010.02.

I don't know the cause of the issue with 2010.02 - it won't finish booting and 
my knowledge of OpenSolaris isn't sufficient to find out what is going wrong.

Prior to 2009.06, the issue was 
http://bugs.opensolaris.org/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=6764179 (but you 
could work around it, by booting in 32bit mode).
In SNV116 a further change was committed, 
http://bugs.opensolaris.org/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=6773433.  I 
speculate that this is the cause of my boot problems. I'll be posting shortly 
to try and find out how to find out what is causing my problems.

I haven't had problems with the inbuilt NIC, at least not since 2008.05.

[osol-discuss] Update Manager behavioural strangeness

2009-11-23 Thread Chris
My impression was that update manager should make a new BE, then run update on 
the new BE and set the new BE to be used on the next reboot.  This doesn't seem 
to happen.

I recently tried updating to the latest development build for  2010.02, feeling 
safe that if there were problems I could revert to my current boot environment. 
 The update failed - my system wouldn't start (more on that elsewhere) so I 
reverted to my previous BE.  On doing so I found that my system was trying to 
use a wrong version of MySQL (I suffered from the bug in 5.1.30 
(http://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=41710) so had rolled my own. 

I needed mysql running so could spend a lot of time trying to work out what had 
happened.  This is what I could see.
- the mysql version running was 5.1.30 (I believed 5.1.37 should be in SVN 127 
based on 
http://www.opensolaris.org/jive/click.jspa?searchID=2585408messageID=418214 
but was mistaken)
- files dated after the update were in mysql bin directories.

I solved the problem by creating a new BE using one of timeslider's automated 
snapshots from prior to my update attempt.  But this seems to defeat the 
purpose of the Update Manager.

[osol-discuss] How to work out where boot process fails

2009-11-23 Thread Chris
I have a working Open Solaris 2009.06 installation.  I've twice now tried the 
development build, 118  127 and both times after upgrading the box hasn't 
completed the boot process.

Where can I look for information about the failed boot?

Is there any way to remove the boot loader screen and see console messages 
during the boot process?

Are there useful settings to change to make more information available from the 
boot process?

Is it possible to do an update to a specific development version without 
downloading that particular version?

Re: [osol-discuss] strange bash behavior

2009-10-17 Thread Chris
now that I think about this I think it might have to do with the fact that I
moved the home directory to a different drive. There must be some lingering
reference to the old location that bash uses to determine if its the home
directory and replace it with the tilde.
my $HOME variable is set correctly
when I just enter cd or  cd ~ it goes back to the right directory.

any ideas where any lingering reference could be to the old home location?

GNU bash, version 3.2.25(1)-release (i386-pc-solaris2.11)
Copyright (C) 2005 Free Software Foundation, Inc.

I just tried the same prompt on another account and it worked fine. I am now 
thinking that this does not work on my account because this account was created 
before I moved the home directory to a different drive. There has to be some 
reference of the old home directory path lingering somewhere that bash is 
looking at on whether to replace it with the tilde or not. Not sure where this 
could be though.

Thanks. It didn't coredump. 

I bearly use top, only when I saw this post and tried it. My system was 
originally snv_117, then luupgrade to snv_124 on every release, but as I said, 
never tried it before, so I don't know if it only happens to this version.

What other info do you need to help diagnose this issue?

Re: [osol-discuss] practical zfs implementation problem

2009-10-14 Thread Chris Du
1. Get LSI SAS hba, such as 3042(8 port) or 3041(4port), these are cheap and 
work better than marvel based.
You may want to get hotswapable SAS mobile rack that can host 5 SAS/SATA disks 
so with LSI 3042, you can connect 10 disks from it, plus 4 onboard SATA, that 
gives you 14 disks.

I suggest you use ECC RAM, and the more RAM the better. I believe AMD supports 
ECC. 2G ram is not enough to get good performance.

I'm not sure if you are able to afford SLC SSD as zil, but it will help a lot.

[osol-discuss] Enabling Remote GUI Login via XDMCP

2009-09-24 Thread Chris
I have a box running OpenSolaris 09.06 which I would like to run headless and 
access the desktop from a Mac (currently running OSX 10.5.8) on the same LAN.

This used to work under OS 08.05.  09.06 seems more secure and I'm struggling 
to locate all the appropriate settings to enable remote login. Specifically, I 
can't seem to get OpenSolaris to listen on port 177 for the xdmcp connection.

After searching around, I've made the following changes:
- /etc/X11/gdm/custom.conf
  add to [security] DisallowTCP=false
  add to [xdmcp] Enable=true
- enabled tcp wrappers
- enabled tcp-listen for x11
- set hosts.allow to ALL: 192.168. and hosts.deny to ALL: ALL

gdmsetup shows all the correct xdmcp settings.  but still port 177 refuses to 
open.

enabling tcp-listen for x11, did open port 6000.

Any help would be appreciated.

Re: [osol-discuss] Nautilus Access List Tab

Ben from cuddletech.com said it was in a version of SXCE, because he wrote

Very odd, same behavior on my SX:CE 116 box. 

The functionality was added to GNOME-vfs some time ago
(http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/820-0724/gdppz?l=dea=view).  You can

Re: [osol-discuss] [desktop-discuss] Nautilus Access List Tab

2009-08-25 Thread Chris Peden
Is there plans to implement a ACL GUI?  If not I really have to wonder  
why.  I am wanting to build an OpenSolaris NAS (because of ZFS) for a  
client of mine but without a GUI, I can see my support calls  
increasing quite a bit.


some posts have said you can do it all from a windows client, however  
that does not seem like a solution to me, more of a workaround.

What Ben pointed at was SXDE which was something we shipped and  
stopped.

I think this is what you are seeing.
ACL list was implemented using gnome-vfs for nautilus and was in  
GNOME 2.20.
But in GNOME 2.22, gvfs was written to replace gnome-vfs and since  
then nautilus has been using gvfs to display the various bits and  
also helpers for various views. The ACL file dialog was in gome-vfs  
was never forward ported to gvfs even for ufs. The dialog you should  
though was a design for zfs which was never implemented (not even in  
gnome-vfs).

Anything further you can find out would be appreciated.


You'll find out more asking on desktop-discuss, where the GNOME

[osol-discuss] Finding my bearings with 2009.06

2009-08-17 Thread chris
I am getting used to the opensolaris GUI. 
The last time I used solaris was with version 1 (SunOS 4), but I am mainly a XP 
user these days. 
I am still looking for the following bits of information, hopefully with a GUI, 
but I can use a prompt if I have to:
- regional setting (to do things like use a 24hr clock)
- disk manager
- where to set delay for disks to go to sleep if unused
- an (hopefully easy) way to setup a simple (app-based if possible) firewall
- an app using smart data to monitor disks problems for me 
- device mgr
- is there a way to monitor how the CPU power saving is used (hlt instruction 
usage, SpeedStep or Cool'n'Quiet status)?
Having these would mean I have all I need, I am working on the network and SMB 
aspects atm.

Also, I was told 2009.06 can't make use of ECC memory. Is that right?

Thanks for you insight.

Just my humble opinion. Why should community
   support two different sets of quite similar tools.
   Maybe some things (e.g. ZFS ACL  support) should be

   Do you really believe that this will ever happen?
  
   The GNU tools do not even support Linux specific
   features, why do you believe
   that they will ever start supporting Solaris specific
   features?

 But in other case we have the following case:
  1) A lot of users (and what is more significant, developers) get used to 
 work with GNU tools. So, even to compile firefox we need GNU userland.
  2) But a lot of Solaris native utils, respectively, relies on 
 Solaris-specific behavior.
  And as result both kind of tools  should be supported Quite strange...
  May be there are some ways to make GNU tools at least do what Solaris tools 
 can do (to improve end user experience)... At least, why there can be some 
 objections from GNU projects commiters if patches for GNU tools enhancing 
 their functionality on Solaris are suggested to them?
  Of course, another way is to make own Solaris tools more GNU-like (for 
 example as it is done in FreeBSD). It will make life of developers (and 
 admins trying to compile soft on Solaris) easier. But it is not always 
 possible...

If you want GNU and FreeBSD features in the Solaris userland look at
the ksh93-integration project. They are adding GNU and FreeBSD
features to the commands in /usr/bin. Just download and install the
binaries from 
http://www.opensolaris.org/os/project/ksh93-integration/downloads/2009-07-02/
to see how the future of Solaris looks like :)

[osol-discuss] Newest/Best way to join Windows Domain

Considering building a OpenSolaris based NAS/SAN for a client and they are 
Windows 2003 AD based currently.  I have found several blog posts, etc each 
having slightly different ways to join the windows domain to use it for 
authentication.

Then I cam across this link:
http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/819-3194/ghnmu?a=view

is this the most current and best way to join windows ad for authentication and 
would this allow me to set ZFS ACLs with my windows user accounts/groups?

Re: [osol-discuss] cc MIA?

2009-06-23 Thread Chris Quenelle
The /usr/bin/cc link is now owned by the new sunstudio12u1 package which is 
the latest FCS release of Sun Studio.  You probably should just install 
sunstudio12u1.

Many managers were involved in the decision about what should and should not
be on your default search path when you had certain packages installed.  ;-)
It's not clear to me we got the best outcome.  In the long run, I think 
/usr/bin/cc
will always point to the latest FCS/stable version of cc.  I hope we won't have 
to cause
any surprises like this in the future.

[osol-discuss] Migrating an install from an usb thumb drive to a SATAII SDD drive

2009-05-28 Thread Chris
So I am wanting to do what the subject says. I'd like to transfer my current 
install of opensolaris 2008.11 from the slow USB drive it's currently running 
on, over to the newly purchased SATAII SDD drive.

Is there a way to clone from the USB to the SATA II or is there some built in 
way to migrate from one physical disk to another?

The jump drive partition and install currently consumes the entire 8GB thumb 
drive.

The SDD is 60GB.

I also have a zfs raidz pool in this machine. Are there any special things I 
need to do to ensure it's successful migration (or does it not have any bearing 
on this?)

Thanks for your help!

 if a laptop does an auto-shutdown when closing the screen, there is usually

[osol-discuss] CIFS / ZFS Permission issue

2008-10-10 Thread Chris
Hello Everyone,
I have recently jumped onto the OpenSolaris bandwagon coming from FreeBSD, 
mainly because FreeBSD's ZFS stability is pretty bad.  So a few weeks ago I 
rebuilt my BSD NAS to OpenSolaris using ZFS and CIFS.  Everything has been 
working fine and I'm loving OpenSolaris.  I haven't had any issues until 
tonight.  I mainly use OS X clients and so I created a new folder and used 
Dreamweaver to create a HTML document and saved it inside the folder on the NAS 
that I just created.  I then made some changes and did a normal save and it 
said access was denied.  I then tried save as and it asked if I wanted to 
replace the file and I said yes, then again access denied, this time the file 
got deleted though.  I then did a save as again and it saved without issue.  It 
also did this on another mac using the program Text Wrangler.

I have yet to try this on my windows clients.

I did ssh into the solaris box and verify the permissions and they look fine.  
The ACL is that the group has full control, which im authenticating with a user 
of that group.

Im stumped and this could end up being a pain in the ass, please help!

regards,
peedy
