Ierrs on 3C905B over NFS on solaris 8 x86

I have 2 identical Dell PC's, one with Solaris 8 HW 07/01 and one with Solaris 2.6
On the Solaris 8 box, when copying files to local disk over NFS, I get lots of ierrs
on the elxl0 devices and the copy is very slow (NFS server is a netapp with gigabit). FTP
shows no increase in ierrs. The 2.6 box is fine doing the same operation
so I suspect Solaris 8. I've tried my install disks on a Dell pc with a 3C905C card
and thats OK. Here is netstat -ain

Mounting a Solaris x86 CD/DVD from a remote Windows CD/DVD-ROM drive

Greetings, all.
Is it possible to mount a remote Windows CD/DVD-ROM drive? I have the Solaris 10x86 Companion Software DVD sitting in a CD/DVD-ROM drive that's installed on a Windows server on my network. It is shared-out (F:) and the two servers can ping each other. I've also confirmed the NFS services/daemons are running on the Solaris x86 machine. I've tried the following variations but, all have failed to produce successful results:
# mount -F nfs x.x.x.x:/f /mnt
nfs mount: x.x.x.x: : RPC: Program not registered
nfs mount: retrying: /mnt

I've also tried mounting it at bootup by adding the appropriate entry in the /etc/vfstab file but, this does not work as well. I've tried Google'ing for an answer to my issue but, I haven't been able to find anything that applies directly to what I'm reporting. It's usually chatter about mounting from one UNIX server to another. Any advice from the community would be greatly appreciated.

After three weeks, you deserve a reply. Windoze does
not natively support NFS.Also deserves a decent answer...
There are two ways to do this:
Install Microsoft's free "Windows Services for UNIX," which includes a Windows NFS server; or
Install the 'sharity' package (google for it); it provides Solaris systems the ability to mount Windows shares

Solaris x86 or Solaris 8

What is the latest version of solaris on intel called? Is it generic
across intel boards? Are there some pitfalls to look out for (i.e.
only runs on 400 MHz or less, only a handfull of graphic cards, etc.)
What is the best C/C++ compiler? Does it support Visual Workshop?
How about Motif? What version? We were using Motif 1.2.4 on X11R5
from ICS, is this OK? Any heads up would be helpful. Thanks in advance.

Solaris 8 is currently available at
http://www.sun.com/software/solaris/binaries/index.html
Not sure what you mean by "generic across intel boards" - it's the
same kernel, but drivers will differ depending on your H/W config -
see the HArdware Compatibility list:
http://soldc.sun.com/support/drivers/hcl/index.html
There are freeware e.g. GNU compilers - go to sunfreeware.com
For serious commercial development, the Sun Workshop tools are
available - Workshop 5 is shipping now and you can get a WS6 early access at the access1.sun.com website.
CDE seems to have taken over from Motif. For details on X11R6 features etc, follow the first link below:

- www.sun.com/intel (For Solaris on the Intel Platform)
- www.sunfreeware.com (take a look at the "Other Useful Sites")

Gcc 4.2.1 sun solaris x86

We installed gcc 4.2.1 on sun solaris x86, but it does give me thousand of errors related to error lib and including. It used to be working under old version 3.4.3 compiler.
Here is an sample error(even the basic string function" strcmp" is not recongnized):
/lib/gcc/sparc-sun-solaris2.10/bits/c++locale.h: error: strcmp is not a member of std"
It turns out all the stand libraries are not compiled correctly.
Please help
Thanks ahead

Install Java on solaris x86

Hello - I am connected to one Solaris x86 machine remotely. It does not have GUI in it and only command line execution. I would like to install Java on this machine. Can you please provide me the link where I can get java and instructions to install it - I surfed in previous topics - But no result found
Thank you!

Java is built-in.
Or you can download a new version from java.sun.com on a different machine and then sftp it over to the Solaris box.

Sharing DVD over NFS - performance question

Hi,
I'm trying to share the DVD over NFS.
I have updated /etc/rmmount.conf with the following line:
share cdrom* -o ro,anon=0Everything works well, except the reading speed, which is quite slow.
Copying a ~200MB file from DVD over NFS takes ~12 minutes.
Copying the same file from DVD to the local filesystem takes ~2 minutes,
and copying this file from the hard drive over NFS takes ~20 seconds.
This makes me believe that the issue is in the interworking of the NFS and DVD-ROM, for (hypothetical) example,
the disk can not spin up to the max speed due to the random access.
Has anyone tried sharing the DVDs with good performance? Should I read up and tweak some NFS parameters or abandon the idea of achieving good performance?
I'm using Solaris 10 Update 7.
Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

Thanks for the suggestion.
I'm not sure if it's applicable for my issue. From what I've read, it may help if the same data is read over and over,
but not with the reading speed of just inserted DVD disks which are not yet cached (which is the usage pattern I'm trying to optimize for).

Network is down suddenly on my Solaris X86 box

Hi all,
I have been using Solaris X86 for a while. However, I found a strange problem when downloading large/many
files with FTP. For example, I ftp to my Solairs X86 box and try to download all my backup software to my local
notebook or PC. After about 10 mins, Solaris X86 box's network will be down suddenly without any error or
warning message.
I found this problem from Solaris8 to Solaris9 and the FTP server daemon I used included NcFTPd, vsftp and
even the default FTP daemon. I have tried two different hardwares. The only one possible reason is my
network (Intel 100 ServerPro something).
Does anyone have such a strange problem when downloading many/large files from your Solaris X86 box?
I also check the log file but found nothing.....:-(
Thinking to switch FreeBSD/Linux box for my FTP service. Please advice and thanks first!

This bug is common to the Intel Server 100 MBit Cards
The problem occurs on high net load.
You have to reboot to restart the card, since it is a complete
stop of the card.
You can try to put the card into another pci-slot, but this helps
only in rare cases.
I had to replace the card with a 3com 3c905b to have uninterrupted
transfers.
The Inteldualport cards seem to work to.

Oracle 8.1.5 Client/WLS/Solaris x86

has anyone been able to get Oracle's client 8.1.5 running on Solaris x86 in conjunction with WLS to talk to back-end Oracle? Any help would be greatly appreciated.thanks.

This will not work. We have not built the native libraries to work with
Solaris on Intel..
I suggest trying the platform independent type 4 JDBC driver available for
free from Oracle. It is supported (as is any JDBC driver) with WebLogic
Server. To download it:
Go to http://www.oracle.com and select the "Download" option.
From the resulting page, use the "Select Utility or Driver" dropdown to
select Oracle JDBC drivers
From the resulting page, scroll down a little (since SQLJ stuff appears at
the top).
Or, to go directly there:

Install error for Oracle 10g on Solaris x86 64-bit. NETCA won't run

Hi All,
I'm installing Oracle 10.2.0.1 on Solaris x86 64-bit. I run the Oracle installer and all runs well until the NETCA portion of the install. It then errors (error file below). When i attempt to run NETCA outside of the installer i'm getting the same error output. I have verified my OS version and that all dependent packages are installed. I'm not sure what is causing this. Any help would be greatly appriciated.

How to upgrade oracle 32 to 64 bit on sun solaris x86 64 bit OS?

Hi,
I want to upgrade/convert 32 bit Oracle Database 10.2.0.2 to 64 bit database. Existing 32 bit database is RAC and it is running on Sun Solaris X86 64 bit OS.
First, I want to know is it possible?
If yes, then what are the exact steps?

Hi,
Such a migration can be done, just follow the steps in Metalink note 62290.1
It is important to remember that 64-bit database requires more shared pool memory so you should increase your shared pool size.

How to integrate a Solaris x86 server on Sun Management Center ?

Hello people,
I want to integrate a Solaris x86 server on Sun Management Center platform.
If I'm not wrong, SunMC doesn't run for Solaris x86, server and client only as console with Java.
In speat of it, I try to install Sun Management Center 3.0 Agent for Solaris x86.
It seems to be ok, install packages, but when execute es-setup script, intents to create the following directory:
/opt/SUNWsymon/base/bin/sparc-sun-solaris2.8
I supose that in this directory, SunMC will install sparc binary files
At this point, I can't follow the installation and abort it.
Can anybody give me ideas to install and integrate my solaris x86 server on SunMC ?
Thanks

could you guide please?If you still have a copy of your SunMC media around, the same ["es-inst"|http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/820-2215/command-line-1?l=en&a=view] program you use to install Solaris Agents should work on Linux as well.

Hi
From the Unix prompt enter oemapp console(for v9.x). If you are using earlier versions it is oemapp console (for starting the console) and oemapp dbastudio(for starting dba studio)
For starting OMS enter: oemctrl start oms.
Hope this helps

Incorrect file sizes shown in Finder over NFS and permissions issues

Hi there
This is a problem that existed for me in Leopard and has not been resolved in Snow Leopard.
I have an XSan with a Leopard server sharing over NFS and AFP. When I connect from a Leopard or Snow Leopard client over NFS the file sizes in Finder are incorrectly displayed. My Tiger clients work perfectly.
Also, although it says I have read write access to the files over NFS I cannot save over an existing file when I make changes to it, I instead have to create a new version of it and remove the old one.
Check the link to show a grab of one of the folders in question, the upper window is what the NFS shows me, the lower AFP. If you Get Info on the files over either connection the byte count is identical.
http://www.the-9000.com/images/finder_anomaly.tiff
Any info would be greatly appreciated.

This is a problem that existed for me in Leopard and has not been resolved in Snow Leopard.
Have you filed a bug report with Apple?
http://developer.apple.com/bugreporter/
If not, there's less of a chance they'll know about it and help fix it for you.
Do things look OK from the command line in Terminal?
It would probably be useful to use a tool like Wireshark to check out what each protocol is sending over the wire. That could at least narrow it down to being a client or server issue.
Thanks

From 7.3 on NT to 8 on Solaris x86?

Has Oracle ported Oracle8 for Solaris x86?

Hi,
usually I expect people to do a little research and I do not give everything chewed.
Point 4:
go to the
Oracle9i Database Migration Release 2 (9.2)
go to the chapter 3
Upgrading a Database to the New Oracle9i Release
go to the point:
Upgrade the Database Manually
Exactly from here:
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B10501_01/server.920/a96530/upgrade.htm#1009200
Keep in mind
1) that the EXACT procedure you are following it is not indicated in this manual
2) you have to think a little ( do you have all the windows services created on the destination system? if not, you have to create them ... )
3) this procedure is not supported by SAP. It is a valid option but not supported by them. You have to practice until you get all the points correctly
