do you log in as root ?? or just a normal user ??

If you log in as root, is the login process slow, i.e. the time it takes to come back and ask you for your password, or after the password, to...

Mmm thats not true. You can manually going into /etc/pooladm.conf, alter the name accordingly, then save it. Do a pooladm -c and hey presto.

Ive done this many a time. Infact I found it easier,...

pooladm is the best way to go. I had this excercise when I had to enforce Oracle licensing. Only latest versions of solaris 10 will allow dedicated cpu parameters to be used within the zone.

Check DNS resolution / pam.conf / login authentication. what you are seeing is the server timing out trying to either authenticate the user id, or trying to mount the users home directory, or...

Hi,
within the /etc/zones/[zonename].xml ensure you have :-

autoboot="true" in the line that has the zonename / zonepath / pool configurations.

If not, then :-

zonecfg -z [zonename]...

Hi all

I need to change my current metaset setname from lh-rms02ds to lh-lgwrms01ds. Is it possible ?? I know within veritas I do a vxedit, is there a way in SVM ?

I notice theres a...

Hi all

Long time no speak, I hope you are all well.

Im looking at a DNS issue here and reckon Igot a AD / DNS server issue elsewhere but need to rule out the configuration of my two server's...

Hi there

Yes, you are basically removing all the traces of the veritas boot / root encapsulation. Im not sure the /etc/system file is really used in a zone, infact most of it will be ignored....

No.

There's only one kernel running on the system, hence if you shutdown the global zone, the non global ones will stop.

if you do a ps in the global zone, you will see all the non global...

Hi there.

I followed these steps ( ive just cut / pasted from my notes ). These are just a guide, so see them as a help, not an exect step by step senario.


Creating Branded Zones /...

Lets relate it to hose pipes. Shared IP is like you are using one hose that is shared to a number of flats. Exclusive IP is like your flat having its own hose pipe.

I use shared and exclusive. ...

Hi

Nothing will happen. You will get a few VX errors at boot, but that's all. I did the same as you, I made a flar dump of a solaris 8 server, using VxVm and put it into a zone. I have to give...

The reason you see "insufficient privileges" is that the zone doesnt actually own the underlying hardware devices. Run the dladm show-dev command in the global zone and it will work.

Zones dont...

Being in the global zone, you can use cp to just copy the file, into the zone. Remember the zone LIVES in the global zone, and you just have to copy the file to where the zone phyiscally lives...

Hold on, this looks more like a problem with the disk, as /tmp isnt mounting. Yes patch level may be low, but that isnt the problem. These sort of errors are effects of an underlying error. So,...

Cron isnt at fault here, the script is. Have you remembered that cron does not read profiles and does not have any user environmental settings ?? Any script that runs should assume this and define...

Hi,
let me ask the question from a different point of view. My globalzone uses qfe1 + hme0 as an ipmp pair. My zones uses a sun trunk using 4 other qfe ports. The zones and the global zone are...

I have a similar problem with a solaris 8 server using 5200 disk array. Every reboot I will get a number of MD devices that will need maintance / last errored. Due to the how the metadevices are...

What are your kernel / project settings within your zones ??

whats the output for :-

projects -l

and

zonecfg -z [zonename] info

# pooladm

Sounds to me you need to up a few of...

Hi all

I hate networking, I hate everything to do with it. Its something I do in anger in one contract, then forget. This is more of a question / than a problem.

So, on a solaris 10...

Hi,

Check the contents of the bootparam file on the boot server to ensure you have the right hostname / ip or mount names.

Then ensure that the config server, where the media is being mouted...

Hi Duke,

Ive just read up/ leanrt about wan boot / dhcp with jumpstart and too much of a ball ache. I can domain the 6800, as its already been split into two domains and Ive only got two sets...

Hi all

Got myself in a pickle here, chasing my own tail and am confused. Im trying to work out memory / swap on my solaris 10 server, that Im using zones on.

Server A has 32Gb of raw memory,...
