Solaris U10 - Crash OS
Hello,
I an triyng to write an emergency procedure, and I need your help, or point of view.
I trying to find a way to get connected to an U10 Sun Solaris by the serial port to be able to get access to the system to debug systeme crash before restarting the server.
The SUN U10 does not have MGT or NET admin port. So mouse and keyboard are linked to the avocent, but this useless in case of a system crash.
I did try 10 times to get connected to the system by the serial port using Putty or Hyper terminal, but all failed.... Only once, when I rebooted the serveur with the serial port connected.
If anyone may share his experience or help.
It may be impossible to make it work, but if anyone knows how to do, I will be pleased to read it ... ; )
Thanks

Hi,
I'm running Solaris 10 with a zone called "testzone"
If I do a "reboot -d" on the host, as expected the kernet panics, reboots and creates a crash dump file in /var/crash
However no crash file is created in testzone.
My question is how can I tell if a zone crashs or shuts down... (4 Replies)

reader.conf
READER.CONF(5) PC/SC Lite READER.CONF(5)
NAME
reader.conf - configuration file for pcscd readers' drivers
DESCRIPTION
The /etc/reader.conf file contains configuration information for serial and (some) PCMCIA smart card readers.
USB readers SHALL NOT be configured using this file. pcscd uses another mechanism to automatically load USB drivers.
SYNTAX
The /etc/reader.conf is a regular text file. Each reader must be defined by four fields:
FRIENDLYNAME TEXT_STRING
DEVICENAME FILENAME
LIBPATH FILENAME
CHANNELID NUMBER
The "FRIENDLYNAME" field is an arbitrary text used to identify the reader. This text is displayed by commands like pcsc_scan(1) that prints
the names of all the connected and detected readers.
The "DEVICENAME" field was not used for old drivers (using the IFD handler version 2.0 or earlier). It is now (IFD handler version 3.0)
used to identify the physical port on which the reader is connected. This is the device name of this port. It is dependent of the OS ker-
nel. The first serial port device is called /dev/ttyS0 under Linux and /dev/cuaa0 under FreeBSD.
The "LIBPATH" field is the filename of the driver code. The driver is a dynamically loaded piece of code (generally a drivername.so*file).
The "CHANNELID" is no more used for recent drivers (IFD handler 3.0) and has been superseded by "DEVICENAME". If you have an old driver
this field is used to indicate the port to use. You should read your driver documentation to know what information is needed here. It
should be the serial port number for a serial reader.
EXAMPLE
# Gemplus GemPCTwin reader with serial communication
# connected to the first serial port
FRIENDLYNAME "GemPCTwin serial"
DEVICENAME /dev/ttyS0
LIBPATH /usr/lib64/readers/serial/libccidtwin.so.0.4.1
CHANNELID 1
DEBUGGING
In order to set up your /etc/reader.conf file correctly you may want to have debug messages from pcscd. I recommend you to start pscsd in
the foreground and debug mode using:
# pcscd --foreground --debug
If everything seems OK you can use the pcsc_scan command to print the list of correctly detected readers and try to get the ATR of your
smart cards.
