For a SB 2500, Solaris Zones are the only option. If you were on a T-series box
you could use LDoms and Dynamic Domains on an M-Series.
Xen could technically be ported to SPARC, but I haven't seen any work towards
that.

Oracle databases require shared memory for the different Oracle processes to
access the SGA for the database. You should have enough physical memory to host
each shared memory segment for your databases. By setting this, you prevent
each
database instance from consuming as much of the free heap
The number is indeed the CPU that OBP session is running on. This can change on
from "0" to any of the available CPUs in the LDom or Dynamic Domain. As why it
would change from one CPU to another, may be a change in newer OBP versions

Hi,
For a workstation, you could look at the Ultra 27 workstation which has a i7
core processor in it:

With that one could get a nice NVidia card from Sun or your favorite retail
site for PC gear. One could also build something from scra
Hi,
Yes this is correct because the queue masters have to be Solaris/OpenSolaris on
SPARC which is not an option on AWS. You could host that internally and then
have all of your execution nodes running on AWS.

Hi,
Well it sounds like we as a community should address the issue of poor
documentation. I think the first question is should we leverage OpenDS or use
Sun JES DS to write a how-to on our site? It's these kinds of things that
unfortunately Sun has been very lacking in providing to the customer
Hi,
That is really strange. I'm on 2009.06 svn123 and I see the following number of
lines:

The one clue that seems to be in both of your files is that items for Sun
Cluster are present. I haven't tried to install it on OpenSolaris, but I would

Hi,
Benchmarking is more of an art than a science at the end of the day. Most of
the benchmarks out there like SPEC.org's CPU or LINPACK are really just a
series of complex math problems that target integer and floating-point
performance. They don't reflect real-world applications, and if anyt
Hi Ben,
I wonder about the usefulness of such tools as well. Since most medium to large
shops are using BMC, HP OpenView, or Tivoli, they normally have their own
agents, modules, and plug-ins. Some of them piggy-back onto the SunMC framework
to get more detailed info on Sun servers. Ultimately

I use JET. Works with x86/sparc and does bootp, wanboot, and pxeboot for
Solaris. You can do flash archive and traditional network installs. Also
supports Linux. It's a good framework, modular, and enables you to do
templates. I've used it over the past 6-7 years and had a lot of success with
Hmm.. make sure you've installed the latest firmware and have patched up your
Solaris 10 install. If you still see the problem at the OBP (try doing a boot
net on each nic), then it's probably a hardware fault or bad nvram.

This is true that most shops will come up with standard configuration files and
just drop them in place and run any commands required to activate those
changes. I think the difficult part becomes dealing with patches/updates that

Hi Brendan,
I think it's good that we fix the SNMP/MIB situation for Solaris/OpenSolaris. I
also think that using the right metrics and data gathering is key to providing
real value. There are definitely better tools that have come out over time than
the old vmstat or iostat for example. Perhap

I think this would make a great project as monitoring for Solaris has pretty
much been left to 3rd party tools by Sun. That's okay in corporate environments
where people spend money on one tool for everything. However, if
Solaris/OpenSolaris came with all the MIBs out the box, that would probabl

for 2009 Election
See the following message from Jim Grisanzio. Are the current Core Contributor
grants for the sysadmin community accurate?
Currently they are: Peter Tribble, Brian Gupta, Octave Orgeron, and
Rainer Heilke.
All those grants extend through the next OGB election in any event.
Have you tried preap against the process? That's how I get rid of zombie
processes and things that just don't respond to kill properly.
