The admin replied that he applied the "latest cluster" and that did the trick, but wasn't sure which one fixed it, and didn't appear to be sure of what he had before <sigh>.
So, anyway - Sol 8 requires the latest cluster of patches in order to avoid kernel panic when initializing the network at boot time after the /etc/system changes are made. My hunch is that it centers around "set rpcmod:svc_default_stksize=0x4000", but that's just a wild guess... -----Original Message----- From: Jolliff, Dale Sent: Friday, April 19, 2002 6:25 AM To: 'ADSM: Dist Stor Manager' Subject: RE: system params for Solaris on TSM upgrade to 4.1.2.0 The boxes that are having panics are 8 I'm waiting on a reply from the admins about their patch level - that may be the cause. -----Original Message----- From: Sjerps, Marco [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, April 19, 2002 3:11 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: system params for Solaris on TSM upgrade to 4.1.2.0 Dale, Which solaris version are your running 7 or 8 Don't forget to apply the various patches for each.. Platform and server.. set rpcmod:svc_default_stksize=0x4000 this parameter caused some panics here with out the patch for the solaris this is resolved by the big patch for your solaris version .. -----Original Message----- From: Jolliff, Dale [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: donderdag 18 april 2002 23:28 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: system params for Solaris on TSM upgrade to 4.1.2.0 I'm getting kernel panics on reboot after upgrading to 4.2.1.0 on Solaris. Once we remove the changes that the README says are required to /etc/system the machine runs ok... Anyone seen this before? Here's the message from the admin: Here's the section of my '/etc/system' file that appears to be causing the kernel panic: *************************************************** *Following are parm values required for TSM backups *************************************************** *** lwp_default_stksize=0x4000 *** rpcmod:svc_default_stksize=0x4000 *** semsys:seminfo_semmap=50 *** semsys:seminfo_semmni=50 *** semsys:seminfo_semmns=300 *** semsys:seminfo_semmnu=150 *** semsys:seminfo_semopm=50 *** semsys:seminfo_semume=50 *** semsys:seminfo_semmsl=125 * * set lwp_default_stksize=0x4000 set rpcmod:svc_default_stksize=0x4000 set semsys:seminfo_semmap=50 set semsys:seminfo_semmni=50 set semsys:seminfo_semmns=300 set semsys:seminfo_semmnu=150 set semsys:seminfo_semopm=50 set semsys:seminfo_semume=50 set semsys:seminfo_semmsl=125 Thanks,
