As was suggested, I've requested our DBA's to investigate what they can do from their end... it met with a lot of reluctance, but I think they will have a look at it as well. :b:

Thanks for your replies.

Achenle, here are the outputs of "prstat -a", "vmstat 2 20" & "iostat -sndxz 2 20".
And yep I think the 'solution' to this performance issues before was the "throw as...

Anyone has any ideas?

On AIX you would use smit and just follow the menus. Or if you want to do it on the command line you would use the "mkuser" command.

To set the password you can do "echo "user:n3w_p466w0rd" |...

I've just been handed a hot potato from a colleague who left :(... our client has been complaining about slow performance on one of our servers.
I'm not very experienced in investigating performance...

Hi,

I'm trying to find out if there is a way to get a timestamp on my Solaris root shell prompt using /sbin/sh?

I'm trying to archive something in line with the following:
12:34:26 root@server...

Hi,

I am having trouble transferring files from a source UNIX machine to a
destination UNIX machine by hopping via 2 gateway machines.
The user used for the transfer has been setup/authorized...

Thanks for the info Diabolist, might come in handy.

I got relayed some information on what caused my problem... It seems it was because of a network problem causing the TSM sessions to not...

Yep, those values are incorrect. You'll need to install VRTSvxfs 4.1MP2 or later.

Oh just found it again, the following version has the problem:
VERSION: 4.1,REV=4.1B18_sol_GA_s10b74L2a

Are you running vxfs on any of your disks? If so what version?

There is a version of vxfs that overwrites a memory address that is used by kstat for reporting the vmstat PI values.

After the reboot the system ran ok for a couple days, but again the SEMMNI (semaphore id's) limit was reached. We will have to take this issue to the software vendor and see if they have an idea.

I've changed /etc/system and set semaphore identifiers to 30. Currently I'm waiting on agreement for an outage window for a reboot.
I'll post the results.

Thx for your answers.

Ramen_noodle, the reason why I want to keep the semaphore ID's on 10 is 1.) because this is the Solaris 9 default and 2.) we actually don't experience this problem on our...

Hi,

Anyone knows whether it is possible to link/relate an IPC semaphore to a particular process ID?

e.g.
# ipcs -as
IPC status from <running system> as of Wednesday July 2 14:10:39 EST 2008...

That's just because the slackers who should have checked the config of this server when it was handed over to production didn't do their job properly. Two words: ITIL bureaucracy

I stand corrected ;)

Thanks for the answers guys. I contacted Sun regarding this, this is what they answered:

Thanks for your input sparcguy. But do you mean the PS2 connector of a client pc/laptop that has a serial connection to the system controller? Because there is no PS2/USB connector on a E25K system.

Hi,

Due to some changes at our company, we lost the password for the root and sms-svc account on the primary system controller (E25K).

We connected a serial console to the system controller but...

It does indeed seem that most of them are just errors made while creating the users.
I guess to be safe I'll do it in 3 parts, 1st is to create the directories that are defined in the passwd files...

Hi,

Can I just quick pick everyone brain here about the following:

There is a security audit going on at the company I work for and one of the things that needed to be resolved was that there...
