One of the more annoying features of the Gnome 3 desktop in Solaris 11 is its insistence on blanking the screen after five minutes of inactivity. And for the life of me I can't figure out how to...

UPDATE
I fixed the "no write access problem" by grepping for proceses named "telnet" and then killing them. Then I tried the "telnet localhost 5000" again and it worked fine. I next ran "svcs -xv"...

Thanks! The ipadm command worked! I now have networking again at 192.168.0.78 on the LDOM. But now I have a new problem. When I start the LDOM console, it won't let me in. (But I can...

I have a Sun T4-1 running Solaris 11.4 with a static IP 192.168.0.183. On this machine is a Solaris 10 LDOM with a static IP of 192.168.0.78. The other day I had to stop the LDOM to do a memory...

OK well I just checked what I should have checked at the start. It turns out that OpenIndiana is only for x86 Solaris, not SPARC. So even if I could download it, it wouldn't run. Sigh.

Thanks...

Well that didn't work but I think we're on the right track.

Does anyone know how to install a package that comes in a p5i file in Solaris 11.4? The first thing the Oracle documentation says is to "launch packagemanager". Well they removed packagemanager...

OK, I'm glad I asked then. So I have to mount the /bkpool disk in the LDOM as an NFS share? Can you give me a pointer on how to do that? Is this what Oracle calls "virtual disk multipathing"? ...

I have a guest LDOM running Solaris 10U11 on a Sun T4-1 host running Solaris 11.4. The host has a disk named bkpool that I'd like to share with the LDOM so both can read and write it. The host is...

It doesn't look like ldmp2v is going to do it. From the docs:

My source (M3000) is running Solaris 10 with a zfs root. It does nto even have the ldmp2v command. And the target (T4-1) is running...

Yikes. That looks even more complicated than what I'm trying to do now. I'm also not sure how to do ldmp2v with an existing flar. Nor did I see anything about how to use my net1 interface instead...

OK, hold everything. I decided to check the zonecfg for s10zone:
root@hemlock:/rpool# zonecfg -z s10zone
zonecfg:s10zone> info
zonename: s10zone
zonepath: /zones/s10zone
brand: solaris10...

Unfortunately I did not know that when I started. Yes, I have Solaris 11.4 installed on the T4-1 bare metal. Under the 11.4 global zone I have an LDOM running Linux for SPARC. That's working...

I'm trying to migrate a Solaris 10 flar archive from a Sun M3000 to a T4-1. When I first created the zone I followed the Oracle instructions here: Transitioning an Oracle Solaris 10 Instance to an...

That's a good point. There's just one Ethernet cable connected to the T4 so I don't need the ETH1 interface in the guest at all.

Thanks again for your help My next project is to port a Solaris...

Oh OK - thanks. That's good to know.

It says:

"Strange combination, sparc linux on Solaris ldom, to notice at first."
No doubt but I have a program that only runs in Linux. If I can get it to work here I won't need a separate machine just for...

I'm really stuck here. I've created an LDOM on a SPARC T4-1 with Solaris 11.4 to run a copy of Linux for SPARC. I got the Linux ISO installed and Linux itself installed and booted OK. The only...

"My understanding is the a XVR-100 will do 1600x1200x24 so I would be tempted to buy a used one off ebay for US$40 unless I needed to do more than that."

It will, but only analog, not digital. ...

Thanks - that card looks like it would do the job. I notice that it even has a DVI output, though that one provides 24 bit output only up to 1280x1024. That got me looking at the rest of the XVR...

I recently installed a PGX-32 graphics card on my Sparc 10 Ultra. I was under the impression that it would give me 24 bits at 1600x1200, but that doesn't seem to be the case. It's 8 bits only at...

OK, now I'm stuck again. I installed the package but apparently I need to run octave-config in order to set up some environment variables. But they're not getting set:

-bash-3.00$ cd...

Doh! Thanks.:o

This is probably something really simple, but I don't get it. I downloaded a copy of Octave and extracted it to octave-2.1.73-sol10-sparc-local. Now what do I do with it? I chmod'ed it to 777 and...

Oh! Well then I guess, as Humphrey Bogart said in Casablanca, "I was misinformed". I'd still like to get a copy of Solaris 10 on CD in case the network boot server (which I have yet to figure out...
