Operating Systems Solaris Modify the Hostid in a Solaris 11 Global Zone running on VMWare Post 302914686 by gull04 on Wednesday 27th of August 2014 10:20:50 AM

Hi Hicksd8,

The script is located in /usr/local/bin which is where I tend to put anything that I write to complete an admin function.

At the moment it is a manual job to run the script, however I will probably implement it as a service at some point and I'll put a copy in /etc/init.d just for completeness.

Would quite like to try this with a sparc based M/C and can't actually see why it wouldn't work although it would probably require the adb as against the mdb But right now I have only got access to 2 * Ultra 10's one running 2.6 amd one running 2.7 so not much chance of a proof of concept there.

Obviously it will be the same situation on a sparc and the hostid won't persist across a reboot.

Regards

Dave

NAME
adb - general-purpose debugger SYNOPSIS
adb [-kw] [-I dir] [-P prompt] [-V mode] [ object [ core]] DESCRIPTION
The adb utility is an interactive, general-purpose debugger. It can be used to examine files and provides a controlled environment for the execution of programs. The adb utility is now implemented as a link to the mdb(1) utility in Solaris 9. mdb(1) is a low-level debugging utility that can be used to examine user processes as well as the live operating system or operating system crash dumps. The new mdb(1) utility provides complete backwards compatibility with the existing syntax and features of adb, including support for processing adb macro files. The Solaris Modular Debugger Guide and mdb(1) man page describes the features of mdb, including its adb compatibility mode. This mode will be activated by default when the adb link is executed.
