Re: [osol-discuss] opensolaris based multiple boot environment

2009-08-27 Thread Sean McGrath
Dieter Kluenter stated:
 Hi,
 Opensolaris is installed on a 150GB P-ATA disk attached as primary
 disk to the IDE controller, a Linux based Xen environment is installed
 on a 500GB S-ATA disk attached to the S-ATA controller. The P-ATA disk
 is the boot disk. grub/menu.lst has been edited as follows 
 
 title Linux-Xen
   root(hd1,1)
   chainloader +1
 
 But the title didn't show up when booting the system. I presume that
 the zfs boot loader doesn't read menu.lst. What do I have to configure
 to enable a multiple boot environment with opensolaris?

  Where did you edit the menu.lst file ?

  With zfs root its in /rpool/boot/grub and not /boot/grub

Re: [osol-discuss] Link aggregation

rudro stated:
 I am trying to do static link aggregation  using a Netgear switch.Open 
solaris System  has an aggregation that consists of two interfaces, bge0 and 
bge1. These interfaces are connected to the switch through aggregated ports. If 
both links are connected,  in Netgear, traffic is only on one link  BW is 
limited to one link. Do all switched do load balancing between links within 
static aggregation group, and if so, what might my problem be?

 What traffic, is it a single stream or multiple streams/connections ?

   I recall a bug were the adaptec driver doesn't load on a box over

 8 Gb in the box where it will not load. Is there a workaround. I will try 
dropping the memory to 2 or 4Gb to test.

  Yup, thats the bug if I recall (defect.opensolaris.org is being upgraded
   at the moment, so I can't check).

  You need 2Gb or less I think.

 lgrpinfo 
 lgroup 0 (root):

   That and is each box booting 64bit kernel ?  The output of isainfo
   would say: 'amd64 i386' if its running the 64bit kernel.
 
 The same thing happens w 32 or 64-bit kernel. One thing to note though in 
both cases only a 32-bit cadp driver is available.

  Yup.  And since this card has been EOL'd by Adaptec its not really
  supported.. the cadp driver is also closed src (Adaptec own the code).

  A newer scsi card an option ?

problem:
 
 ok boot net:172.16.1.xxx:46503

  Thats the wrong syntax, you need to do

boot net:dhcp

   Don't know where you got the idea to use 'boot net:172.16.1.xxx:46503'
 The docs above use 'boot net:dhcp'.

 Boot device: /p...@1f,70/netw...@2:172.16.1.xxx:46503  File and args: 
 100 Mbps FDX Link up
 Timeout waiting for ARP/RARP packet
 
 where 172.16.1.xxx:46503 is static IP of my x86 machine with osol0906. (My 
x86 machine is host in dhcp network, but i set a static IP for it). Do anyone 
have ideas?

You need dhcp there instead and your dhcp server has to be setup to
both give the sparc box its IP and other macros where the sparc box
will then find out about 172.16.1.xxx:46503

  The caiman-interest list can answer anymore questions you have.

 I found a BIOS update that updates the U40M2 BIOS to 1.25 however the
 update instructions are pretty sparse.  Basically, it states:
 
 1. Copy bios125.wph, flash.ex_, and phlash16.ex_ onto the bootable media.
 2. Rename phlash16.ex_ to phlash16.exe, and flash.ex_ to flash.exe.
 3. Boot from the bootable media.
 4. Execute [flash bios125.wph]
 5. Auto reboot when you finished, and verify the new version number on the
boot-up screen.
 
 Anyone know specifically how to create a bootable CD or DVD on
 OpenSolaris that would be suitable for updating the BIOS?

  Freedos images

  freedos.org has such ISOs etc which have worked for me in the past.
   One would modify the floppy or ISO image,  Google for 'freedos bios upgrade'.
   for ISO images, examples include using mkisofs to create the bootable
   ISO from an 'unpacked' freedisk ISO directory which would include the
   bios upgrade files.

Re: [osol-discuss] HAL fails to start after upgrade to 118

2009-07-17 Thread Sean McGrath
Matthew Stevenson stated:
 The log file has 4 lines for each time the system boots, for example:
 
 [ Jul 17 22:00:33 Enabled. ]
 [ Jul 17 22:01:08 Executing start method (/lib/svc/method/svc-al start). ]
 hal failed to start: error 1
 [ Jul 17 22:01:16 Method start exited with status 95. ]
 
 So about 35 seconds after it is enabled the start method runs, and then 8 
seconds later it exits unsuccessfully.
 
 As I mentioned in another reply further down, if I try to start hal manually 
I get a segmentation fault almost immediately after running the command (well, 
immediately in terms of seconds, but hal does make some progress in detecting 
quite a few devices before it quits)

  Can you get a pstack from the core ?

  For sparc installs you must use the network installer, AI (Auto Installer).

 It is in the repository.  You can install it by installing the GNU

 pfexec pkg install gcc-dev

 While that gets you gcc3.4, you can get gcc4.3 as well:

 how is this different than PTL 4820 ? , which is

 This one would be replacing gcc3.4, it first has to be able to compile

2009-05-07 Thread Sean McGrath
James Carlson stated:
 Nischal writes:
  can anyone please explain me the boot process in opensolaris? I would like 
somebody to explain the boot process at the process level like what forks and 
what execs and so on ( our textbooks say that init forks and execs getty, login 
blah blah... which is so outdated :) .  )
 
 The svc.startd(1M) and smf(5) man pages are probably a good
 introduction to the way services are started on OpenSolaris.
 
 Like traditional UNIX, OpenSolaris does start 'initd' at boot time,
 but if you look at /etc/inittab, you'll see very few things actually
 started by init -- only autopush, soconfig, and svc.startd.  It's that
 last one that effectively behaves as the global 'initd' process on
 OpenSolaris, and forks/execs all the processes you see.
 
 (And, since this is System V, there's no getty, but instead ttymon.
 It'd be nice, though, if someone put ttymon out of our misery and
 installed mgetty instead ...)
 

   A nice graphical view of the boot is at:
http://blogs.sun.com/eschrock/date/20050106#boot_chart_results
  its from 2005, but still shows init, autopush, soconfig, and svc.startd.
   - as well as every process thereafter untill the last script in etc/rc3.d
  has been run.

OpenSolaris B67 x86 and entered the Singe User Shell straight away.


   Did you enter via the Failsafe grub menu or off a CD/DV/network ?
   In these cases you'll get the 32bit kernel.  It won't be until you
   install Solaris that you'll get the 64bit kernel.

 
 # isainfo -v
 32-bit i386 applications

 what does psrinfo -vp say ?

Regards,

 Now is this telling me the the computer can not run 64bit or is just because 
the install kernel is 32bit it want report if it can run 64bit.
 
 I have also used the Device Detection Tool, but that will report there are 
3264 bit drivers are available, but does not tell me that OpenSolaris will run 
in 64bit mode.
 
 I guess by what people have said is that if the CPU supports EM64T or AMD64 
then of course it will run 64bit!

 After OpenSolaris don't open gedit and firefox  and it don't reboot.

 More info please.   Do you think it should reboot after installing those

 From a command line whats the output from trying to start firefox ?

Re: [osol-discuss] Help with Dell Dimension E521 NIC Driver on Solaris

 Dear All
 
 I have a Dell Dimension E521 computer and have been trying to connect to 
 the Internet on Solaris but to no avail.
 
 The following is what I did:
 1. Edit the /etc/driver_aliases with [i]bge pci14e4,170c[/i].


  One should never edit that file (or any in /etc), use add_drv instead like:

  add_drv -i 'pci14e4,170c' bfe

  this command will also update the /etc/name_to_major file and modload the
  driver..

 2. Run the command [i]modload /kernel/drv/bge[/i].

   This line may not have worked for you if the system was in 64bit mode.

 3. Run the command [i]ifconfig bge plumb[/i].
 4. Run the command [i]sys-unconfig[/i].
 
 The result was that at bootup the system was just continuing to reboot 
 after filesystem synchronisation. I guess that there is no driver for the 
 NIC. 

  continued to reboot ?  You mean the box keeps rebooting ?  Sounds like
  a different problem you have.

 I hope that any one can help. Your help is greatly appreciated. Thank you 
 in advance.
   
 
   I myself am using this box. You need to grab Masayuki-San's bfe 
 driver from here:
   http://homepage2.nifty.com/mrym3/taiyodo/bfe-2.4.0.tar.gz

 Same here, I use that driver, works a treat:
# ifconfig -a

fact, I have to run CDE from now on because of it.

  Bzzzt...wrong answer. ZFS supports software RAID
  (zraid) and allows you to 
  toss disks at the pool in any way you want. You can
  add them in pairs and 
  mirror them, just toss them in, or do a number of
  other things with them 
  such as creating serpate pools and/or filesystems.
 
 I don't believe that is the case.  What I'm talking about is growing an 
array with devices.  So you have 3 disks in a raid5/raidz array, and then you 
add another disk, causing the free space on the array to grow from (3-1) disks 
worth of space to (4-1) disks worth of space.  Data is preserved across this 
growth.
 
 Linux can achieve the above with four commands.  They amount to expanding the 
array into the extra disk, and then expanding the file system into the full 
array.  ( http://scotgate.org/?p=107 )
 
 This topic has come up many times on the ZFS forums, and even then it is hard 
to get a straight answer.  I blame that on a non-standard vocabulary 
surrounding these topics.  Grow, array, pool, etc... lots of confusion and 
ambiguity there.  But by the end of each question thread, an authoritative 
answer shows up: 
http://www.opensolaris.org/jive/thread.jspa?messageID=108195#108195
 
 So unless something has changed since April, only Linux (and a number of 
hardware solutions) support growing raid5 arrays with devices.

  Indeed SVM has been able to so as well, Solaris 9 in fact could.
   (SVM == Solaris Volume Manager)

  An example from the Solaris 9 docs..
How to Expand a RAID 5 Volume
http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/817-2530/6mi6gg896?a=view

  Solaris 9 was released sometime before April I believe.

  Googling for 'windows expand raid 5' throws up about 943,000 results.
  perhaps one of those may explain how to do so on that OS.

  Windows too it seems to have been about since before April.

 Hope this is not a new thread.
 
 I just have a simple question.
 What is the maximum number of local zone can I have?

  Theoretically, its about 8,192.  Thats based on the maximum number of
  network interfaces one can have.

  Realistically, it depends on how much memory and disk space you have.

  eg from uber zones man; http://blogs.sun.com/jclingan you can see
  theres about 190 zones (aka containers) on a small Ultra-10 and
  about 600 on a v880.  You can see his container count on the right hand
  side bar.

 Now to zip it all back up I did
 
 cd /tmp/b/

  Shouldn't need this cpio.  Just unmount /tmp/b and gzip again.

  what I've usually done is copy the x86.miniroot to x86.miniroot.to.change
  do the ungzip/lofiadm/mount on the x86.miniroot.to.change

  unmount this lofi mount

  and then just gzip the x86.miniroot.change

  Here I change the etc/motd in the miniroot:
   (I'm using the safe miniroot, but its the same with the install miniroot,
 btw, don't replace the original safe miniroot !)

 but the file sizes are different:
 
 154050560 bytes for x86.miniroot (original)
 132227072 bytes for x86.miniroot-modified
 
 and 
 
 lofiadm -a /tmp/a/x86.miniroot-modified
 mount /dev/lofi/2 /tmp/c/
 
 gives the
 
 mount: /dev/lofi/2 is not this fstype

Re: [osol-discuss] Re: U20 nge driver not working since build 52

2006-12-11 Thread Sean McGrath - Sun Microsystems Ireland
Olivier Bourdon stated:
 Thanks for the info, however I had already tried to modify the BIOS settings, 
reverting to the factory failsafe defaults and also playing with the entry you 
mention without any more success.
 
 furthermore it does not explain why between 2 trials where I do not touch the 
BIOS, I can sucessfully install and use the nge driver if S10U2 is used (S10U3 
seems to have the same problems than recent opensolaris versions). Besides OS 
changes, the driver
 version has also changed.
 
 Anybody having the same issues or a hint about how to have this network 
interface working ?

  I've had something like it with a U40 here.  How do you install, via network
  by the sounds of it.  So is your nge device the first device in the boot
  order of the bios.

  One possible workaround; make sure you try to boot from disk before network
  in the bios and then poweroff the box _and_ (important bit) remove the power
  cable from the back for about 10 seconds.
 This will clear anything settings on the nge device itself, so it'll be
  'clean' when Solaris boots.
 By clean, all the registers on the card will be zero.

  Btw whats your bios version ?

Regard,
Sean.

  Is there any way to cause Solaris to also write to

 This problem has been solved in the 2.6.18 Linux kernel (the forcedeth 
module will now reset the NIC cache).  This explains why Fedora Core 6 (2.6.8 
kernel) has no problem but SuSE 10.0/10.1 do (2.6.12  2.6.16 kernels, 
respectively).  It might have already been solved in the latest Nevada.

  Almost.  We encountered a similar problem with the nvidia nics.
  Theres a fix incoming to nevada any day now, its just going thru the

 I suppose the BIOS will always do the pxe first.  But yes, its cdrom then 
disk.

  Usually its not pxe boot first I think..  PXE boot first and you would see
  the pxe sending out DHCP requests, and on the screen would be like:

  DHCP.../

  where the '/' is a dial, /-\|...

  But if it is on your box then a workaround woud be to set the pxe boot below
  cdrom and disk, then powercycle the box, with pulling the power cable for a 
  few seconds (to clear any thing in the nic's cache/registers).  This 
  workaround works for us, though not needed with the fixed nge driver.

  If pxe boot isn't first in the boot order, then windows may be leaving the
  nic in a state that solaris doesn't like.  Again a complete powercycle should
  clear things up.  While not nice, its a possible workaround :)

   Hope this helps..

  Its just that one flag, -xc99=none, which is stopping you getting a clean run.
  The local mysql_config is putting it in.

  I can build sysbench just fine.  Though if I have the -xc99=none flag

  You can take it out of the Makefiles with this one-liner
(in the sysbench directory of course)

for i in `find . -name Makefile `; do cp $i ${i}.orig; sed -e '/xc99=none/

 It seems like the errors have  something to do with the following two lines:
 -xc99=none
 
 and 
 gcc: language c99=none not recognized

  Yup, looks like its mixing both gcc and SunC compiler options.

  The -xc99=none is a Sun C compiler option.

  eg, '-O2 -MT -MB -MP -MF' are all gcc options, whereas '-xO3 -md -x...'
  are all SunC compiler options.

  The configure script seems to be doing this for some reason.  You don't
  have CFLAGS or CPPFLAGS set in your environment per chance ?

 
 Can someone please point out my oversight or what I am missing? I am stumped 
with this error.
 
 
 Thank you very much,
 
 Frank

 Hope this helps.

 How can I force configure and make to use the gcc compiler? Do I just need to 
set CFLAGS and CPPFLAGS in my environment. If so, what values should I set them 
to? I know this is a 101 question but your answer would assist me a lot.

  Just read the original configure output again.  Its mysql thats putting
  in the Sun C options.  Seems your local copy of mysql in /usr/local was
  compiled with Sun C compiler:

checking for mysql_config... /usr/local/mysql/bin/mysql_config
checking MySQL C flags... -I/usr/local/mysql/include -xO3 -mt -D_FORTEC_
-xarch=v9 -xc99=none
checking MySQL linker flags... -xarch=v9 -L/usr/local/mysql/lib -lmysqlclient_r
-lz -lposix4 -lcrypt -lgen -lsocket -lnsl -lm -lmtmalloc

  Why not use the Sun C compiler instead of gcc then since mysql is compiled
  with it..

2006-09-05 Thread Sean McGrath - Sun Microsystems Ireland
Frank Mash stated:
 Thanks stevel and bochnig but adding the environment variables didn't help as 
I still get the same errors.
 
 Seanmcg, per your suggestion I was able to narrow it down to this line:
 
  /usr/local/mysql/bin/mysql_config --cflags
 -I/usr/local/mysql/include -xO3 -mt -D_FORTEC_ -xarch=v9 -xc99=none
 
 I have asked my SA to install CC but in the meantime is it possible to 
translate the above --cflags for cc to gcc so I can compile with GCC? Or does 
it mean that I cannot link MySQL (compiled with cc) with gcc?
 

  Change the mysql_config script itself ?  Its a hack, but would work.

  Reminds me of trying to compile perl modules with gcc, when perl wants
  to use Sun C..

  btw, looks like your mysql was compiled with a rather old version of the
  Sun C compiler (the FORTEC defined).  I'd still try the newer compiler,
  unless theres a specific reason to use gcc..

  /insert plug !/
-- even if there is theres the cooltools, gcc frontend with the Sun C
  compiler backend for better optimisation etc.. :-)
  /end plug !/

 Thanks guys,

Re: [osol-discuss] Re: Re: Re: Compiling sysbench on Solaris 10

2006-09-05 Thread Sean McGrath - Sun Microsystems Ireland

 I suspect you need a newer version of the sun compiler.  sysbench-0.4.7 builds
 fine for me with the studio11 compilers.  You can get that version via the
 same links as sent out.

 Older Sun compilers didn't like (I think) things like:
static drv_caps_t mysql_drv_caps =
{
  .multi_rows_insert = 1,
  .transactions = 0,
  .prepared_statements = 0,
  .auto_increment = 1,
  .serial = 0,
  .unsigned_int = 1,
  
  .table_options_str = NULL
};

   which happens to be where the compile bombs out in drv_mysql.c.


Regards,
Sean.

 Since May 2006, cdrtools (cdrecord + others) use mainly the CDDL. Total ~ 8MB 
 of code, 26 lines of code. 29% of the complete project is still under GPL

 Of course, SchilliX, Belenix and Nexenta are under CDDL
 
 For the rest look e.g. at: http://freshmeat.net/browse/1103/
 
 I don't know how they measuure upcome do they wait until 1000 useless

Re: [osol-discuss] Re: How to write portable scripts in Solaris?

Josip Gracin stated:
 Shawn Walker wrote:
 POSIX requires that you get a POSIX shell if you type sh after you

 So, there's nothing disturbing about this at all.
 
 Shawn, I would appreciate an advice on the following situation then:
 
 I'm trying to port a software called Asterisk to Solaris.  The software 
 uses XPG4-compliant shell scripts in its build process.  Those scripts 
 use the non-standard '#!/bin/sh' as their first line.  The scripts 
 accidentally work on currently supported platforms, but fail on Solaris 
 due to the fact that they use some XPG4 stuff which is not in Solaris 
 /bin/sh.

  This is the Asterisk PBX right ?

  Just compiled asterisk-1.2.9 almost out of the box[1] on Solaris (snv_42).

  Asterisk is primarily developed and tested on linux (re: the readme) it could
  be argued that you just need to run things from a bash shell.

  Asterisk also requires the use of gmake, since it makes use of gmake feautures
  and is thus not posix compliant...

  That and the shell scripts themselves call other binaries which assume that
  they're gnu binaries; eg it calls 'mv --force'.  Long getopts like these
  aren't posix compliant (correct me if I'm wrong) are they ?

 
 So what do I do to make this work in Solaris?  Changing the scripts so 
 that they don't use all XPG4 features but only those which Solaris's 
 /bin/sh happens to implement is not an option.

  Asterisk seems to be dependant on gnu utils rather than posix compliant utils.

  This is familiar with a lot of software thats been primarily developed
  using on linux (and or other OSes) w/ gnu-utils/tools.

  btw, where in the asterisk source do you find anything like 'r=$((3 + 1))' ?
  The only script I found '((...))' was in a rc script that was written for the
  mandrake linux distro.

  Though if you're not talking about the Asterisk PBX then feel free to ignore
  what I just wrote :)

   In some subdir Makefiles, eg editline, call 'grep -q' (posix), and 'mv

Re: [osol-discuss] TTY console and GUI console

2006-02-20 Thread Sean McGrath - Sun Microsystems Ireland
Bruce Riddle stated:
 I just stumbled accross something quite wonderful.
 
 I can have both a TTY(B) console and a Graphic console at the same time.
 When did this sneak in?  I am very happy to see this.

  Since SunOS 4.x ?  Its been around forever.

 I haven't BFUed the system since early January.

UNIX admin stated:
  If expanding adoption of Solaris as a better
  alternative is a community
  goal, then addressing the lack of GUI admin tools
  might help accomplish
  that goal.  Check out the Visual Panels project if
  you haven't already,
  some good ideas there:

 That says a whole lot without actually saying anything.  If only there were 
one single screenshot of the thing, it would most likely be sufficient to 
replace the tons of text on that page.
 
 As it stands right now, it's all completely abstract.

  umm. left hand menu has a screenshots link..

 Use fewer windows and more tabs, which you can name.

  In the window list properties, have 'Always group windows' on.

  I've a few dozen console open, all hanging from one tab.  Click on the tab,
  it pulls down a list of grouped windows for that tab.
  Makes haves oodles of windows on the desktop bearable.

 Oh great. One button that says XTerm (77) and a vertical list

  give yer terminals names :)  xterm escape codes etc...

 that I need to go to the top of and scroll. It works, up to
 a point. Has its drawbacks as well - would be nice to have the
 option to Group these windows. Thanks!

   Theres and RFE if I ever heard one.
   Pick a bunch of windows to group together...

 
 Ultimately it's my fault. Must organize better...

  So should gnome ;-)

Re: [osol-discuss] Re: t-shirt sad tale

2005-11-15 Thread Sean McGrath - Sun Microsystems Ireland
Phil Plouffe stated:
 I received mine some time ago. Unfortunatly, I didn't received the size I 
ordered and got a medium size one; I know that no promises were made regarding 
size..but I cannot even fit in a medium-sized one.
 
 My question: Does someone know if they intend to built a program to sell 
t-shirts and other stuff (pens, coffee mug, etc..). I'm looking forward to be 
able to buy a t-shirt I'll be able to wear.


   You be wanting to visit http://genunix.spreadshirt.net :)
