As Don Cragun is offline, may I jump in? Reverse the pipe commands' sequence:yes | pfexec beadm destroy -f solaris-13

If a single prompt is issued, or if there are several prompts and they all require a "y" response, you can invoke it in a pipeline reading output from the yes utility.

os2mac is correct. For solaris 10 - you can create solaris 10 branded zones on a solaris 11 global zone. Not so with versions of 11, AFAIK.

If you truly need one machine to run 11.1, 11.2 and so...

Many older versions of Solaris do not have GNU date available.

For systems without it, I've written this Perl script...

Not terribly obfuscated:


trap "echo goodbye;sleep 10" 0 1 3 15

Are you sure you are using cdrom image ?
From the output i see

cdrom /dev/dsk/c1t0d0s2
What you need is and iso image copied somewhere on the...

rm ':q!'

You need to change your script shebang to use the "-p" option for the effective user id to be set:

$ cat /etc/release
Oracle Solaris 11.2 X86
Copyright (c) 1983,...

Wrong pathname in exec_attr ...

Yes.

zonefcg to set autoboot to False for each non-global zone.
Create a script that calls zoneadm to boot each zone.
#!/bin/bash
declare -a waits=( 10 20 10 ) # wait 10 20 and 10 seconds...

Attitude and aptitude.
Everything else you can teach.
Most importantly, do you want to come back after two or three months and work as a highly paid consultant? :D

Reverting storage snapshot on live filesystem is not possible.
Or any snapshot as far as that goes.

You will need to export the zpool and then restore storage snapshot and import the zpool.
No...

this bugzilla ticket looks relevant: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1194155

Take a look at newtask.
(http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E26502_01/html/E29030/newtask-1.html)

You can try (didn't test it):
zonecfg -z zone1 "select capped-memory; set physical=16G; end"

Enclose it in double quotes to preserve the blank spaces:
for i in "${string[@]}"; do

You could do something like below using a counter:
file=( 1.txt 2.txt 3.txt 4.txt )
dir=( one two three four )
c=0

for i in ${file[@]};
do
cp $i ${dir[$c]}
(( ++c ))
done

It should work in Solaris. I tested using GNU bash, version 3.2.51(1)-release (sparc-sun-solaris2.10) and it works.

os2mac:

I applaud your desire to help others, but, without exaggerating, your solution is utterly unfit for deployment.



Each iteration of that loop will consume approximately 5 seconds,...

@os2mac

First, as Scott said, you didn't mentionned your distro.

Then, i also mentionned this alternative in case people have it on their distro ... since your point was "sharing the...

You said that, but didn't mention what 'distro' you are on... ;)

Yup ... and by the way, you can also just use the watch command instead:

man watch

(see -d option and -n option)
