Solaris 10 1/13 SPARC SRS 5.4 SROS 11.1.1 Kiosk mode enabled with custom uttsc wrapper
My custom wrapper paints a security classification warning and instructions to insert a smartcard to continue for each pseudo.<MAC> token. For other tokens, it starts up the uttsc script supplied with SRS. The pseudo session sits at the banner screen for long periods. I'm not to concerned about burn-in since LCDs don't tend to have that problem. What I am looking at is the impact on load balancing within the server group. Since I use yaf-splash to display the instructions and wait, I thought that using the -timeout option with a random interval might be a good approach. I put in the code and assigned the test script to a DTU and my smartcard. Testing proved that everything works as expected. So what's the problem? Well, looking at /var/opt/SUNWut/log/messages, there seems to be a lot of activity related to the kiosk script exiting, the kiosk session getting torn down and a new kiosk session getting built on another member of the group. Now, that's not really a big problem for a few DTUs, but I have 1100! I've disabled this feature until I can get a little help from my friends (sorry, John L.!). SO, what do think? Is this sort of thing necessary? Am I creating to much churn in my server group for little value? On most days, I have about 400 running uttsc and 700 with the "idle" DTU display. Thanks in advance!
