Apply one non-kernel Solaris10 patch at Sun Cluster Beginner Question

Dear Sir/Madam,
Our two Solaris 10 servers are running Sun Cluster 3.3. One server "cluster-1" has one online running zone "classical". Another server
"cluster-2" has two online running zones, namely "romantic" and "modern". We are tying to install a regular non-kernel patch #145200-03 at cluster-1 LIVE which doesn't have prerequisite and no need to reboot afterwards. Our goal is to install this patch at the global zone,
three local zones, i.e., classical, romantic and modern at both cluster servers, cluster-1 and cluster02.
Unfortunately, when we began our patching at cluster-1, it could patch the running zone "classical" but we were getting the following errors which prevent it from continuing with patching at zones, i.e., "romantic" and "modern" which are running on cluster-2. And when we try to patch cluster-2, we are getting similiar patching error about failing to boot non-global zone "classical" which is in cluster-1.
Any idea how I could resolve this ? Do we have to shut down the cluster in order to apply this patch ? I would prefer to apply this
patch with the Sun Cluster running. If not, what's the preferred way to apply simple non-reboot patch at all the zones at both nodes in the Sun Cluster ?
Like to hear from folks who have experience in dealing with patching in Sun Cluster.
Thanks, Mr. Channey

Hi Hartmut,
I kind of got the idea. Just want to make sure. The zones 'romantic' and 'modern' show "installed" as the current status at cluster-1. These 2 zones are in fact running and online at cluster-2. So I will issue your commands below at cluster-2 to detach these zones to "configured" status :
cluster-2 # zoneadm -z romantic detach
cluster-2 # zoneadm -z modern detach
Afterwards, I apply the Solaris patch at cluster-2. Then, I go to cluster-1 and apply the same Solaris patch. Once I am done patching both cluster-1 and cluster-2, I will
go back to cluster-2 and run the following commands to force these zones back to "installed" status :
cluster-2 # zoneadm -z romantic attach -f
cluster-2 # zoneadm -z modern attach -f
CORRECT ?? Please let me know if I am wrong or if there's any step missing. Thanks much, Humphrey
root@cluster-1# zoneadm list -iv

Can we apply one off or any patch in the OWB Home

Hi,
I have OWB and Oracle DB installed in same server.
OWB Version - 10.2.0.3.0
DB Version - 10.2.0.5.0
I need to know that, can we apply CPU/PSU/Oneoff patches to the OWB Home. Is there any patches like that specifically for OWB.
As I am new bee on OWB please provide your inputs on this.
Thanks

I get the same issue. I thought that it's a problem in a security - the catalog pane is clear in a union report. But saved filters work in 11g. I migrated catalog from 10g to 11g and I see saved filters in the conditions. But you may add saved filters directly into xml. Go on Tab Advanced and edit Analysis XML. You have to add code like this
<sawx:expr xsi:type="sawx:savedFilter" path="/shared/FOLDER/_filters/FOLDER/FILTER_NAME" name="FILTER_NAME"/> in a right place.

Sun Cluster 3.0 MQ Series 5.2 configuration

Hi All,
we have to review MQ Series installation/configuration on 2 solaris 8 Clustered with Sun Cluster 3.0 machines. The present configuration has a global filesystem /var/mqm with one queue manager.
According to Sun Cluster 3.1 dataservice for websphere MQ(5.3 ndr) there are 2 ways of filesystem layout
FFS: with local qmgrs (data and log) at each cluster node
GFS: with global filesystem qmgrs (data and log).
Are there any special consideration about shmem and ipc directories in <qmgr>/data?
Does this scenario also apply to 3.0 /5.2 ?
Does FFS configuration allow persistant messages failover at takeover?
Are there any dataservices/docs available for MQ on 3.0?
Thanks in advance.

To deploy multiple qmgrs requires /var/mqm to be mounted as a GFS. The reason for this is to overcome IPC key clashes. The recommended file system layout is as follows -> represents a symlink, assuming two qmgrs - qmgr1 & qmgr2
Using FFS (recommended - /local/mqm etc.. are mounted as FFS with /etc/vfstab)
/var/mqm -> /global/mqm
/global/mqm/qmgrs/qmgr1 -> /local/mqm/qmgr/qmgr1
/global/mqm/qmgrs/qmgr2 -> /local/mqm/qmgr/qmgr2
/global/mqm/log/qmgr1 -> /local/mqm/log/qmgr1
/global/mqm/log/qmgr2 -> /local/mqm/log/qmgr2
Using GFS (mainly early SC3.0 as HAStoragePlus wasn't available until later on)
All mounted as GFS with /etc/vfstab
/var/mqm -> /global/mqm
/global/mqm/qmgrs/qmgr1
/global/mqm/qmgrs/qmgr2
/global/mqm/log/qmgr1
/global/mqm/log/qmgr2
Finally, FFS (Failover File System) is recommend because, at present, whenever GFS is used for the qmgr & log files, MQ Series is unable to determine that the qmgr may have been started on another node. e.g. Assuming GFS, and MQ Series is started on Node A, it is possible (but don't do it) to start MQ Series on Node B.
The Sun Cluster Agent provides some protection against this. Instead it's recommened to deploy FFS as above.
The agent for WebSphere MQ for SC 3.1 is available and supported on SC3.0 update 3 as well as SC3.1. There is also a patch available for the WebSphere MQ Agent which deals with IPC cleanup, for single or multiple qmgrs.
Docs available can be found at
http://docs.sun.com/db/prod/7192#hic - Just select Sun Cluster Data Service for WebSphere MQ
Finally, the above scenario also applies to SC3.0/5.2 as well as SC3.1/5.3 and either GFS/FFS allow for persistant messages to be available after a failover.

Neil

kindly help to resolve the issue.
Regards,

Thanks unable to resolve the issue.
Please see below are my setup:
Database tier:
Sun cluster 3.2u3
oracle EBS 12.1.3
Two node sun cluster active node a1 and passive b1.
Application Tier:
App01
I want to move concurrent manager from appo1 to database tier what I did below was my action plan.
step-1 cloned application(app01) to DB on primary host and enabled only batch processing and other all disabled using same virtual host as we have same defined virtual host for database resource group LH (vhost)
the problem is when I start CM it started but immediately stop when I cloned again with physical host
CM is started and working fine but I need anyone to tell me how can i start manually and move to CM resource sun cluster.
Question: Can I choose same LR host for application or I need to put physical name of the primary node during cloning process as I said same we are using LR host for DB tier or need to add new virtual host for CM.
thanks

SUn CLuster 3.2 install - scinstall on x86 32 bit Solaris 5.10

Ok - I have 2 machines with 32-bit x86 SOlaris 5.10 - I installed the Sun Cluster 3.2 software but everytime I try scinstall it says rebooting other node and the other node never brings sun cluster up -
Questions:
1. The private interface does not come up on reboot - should it - and should I have an entry for cluster-priv1 in /etc/hosts
2. I know I am supposed to do a scvx -xv - I then try to enable the cluster service, but everything says disabled
I have tried this 5 times no luck - I have lots of cluster experience - and can get Oracle CRS working fine
Any thoughts

Yeahh, guys!!!
I was trying to establish a two-node cluster using VirtualBox + Solaris x86 + Sun Cluster 3.2. The node where I was running scinstall to configure my cluster environment was rebooting the other node in the end of the configuration process but it was hanging in the "Rebooting node01..." message just because it was not able to establish the cluster.
After see your comments, I changed Solaris x86 to Solaris Express Community Edition and Sun Cluster to Cluster Express and now everything is working fine!
Thanks!

Failed worker while applying one patch

Hi All,
I was applying one patch and during the process, a worker stopped with some error. After inspecting the worker log, I raised a Service Request with Oracle Support and support has recommended to apply another patch. Now what should I do?
1) Can I start another patch session, apply the new patch and then proceed with the failed patch session?
2) Should I terminat the existing failed patch session, apply the new patch and restart the whole process of applying the failed patch?
Please suggest, what is the general practice.
Thanks
SR

Whether DB restart required for applying one-off patch

Hi All
Whether we need to restart database, after applying one-off patch ( Patch no:6554634). The environment in Oracle 10g R2 on AIX on RAC.

What does the README instruct you to do...Normally it would advice you to restart ur database...
If it is RAC, which way are you applying the patch ??

Can I apply one .css stylesheet to all of my linked word documents inside my RoboHelp8 HTML project?

Hello all,
I am on my fourthRoboHelp8 HTML project, after the other three crashed. I am a technical writer constructing my companies Policy and Procedures Guide. I am only 142 (word documents) and 9 (RoboHelp topics) into my project and there will be plenty more to come. I recently took Kevin Siegel's RoboHelp8 class where I determined that it would be best if I link all of my word documents inside of the Project Manager becuase I will be constantly updating these documents. I've searched around the Adobe Forums, talked to Kevin, and talked to my IT Department, but I cannot seem to find an answer for my problem.
I have linked all of 142 word documents inside of the Project Manager, and all 142 word documents have their own .css stylesheet. I have assigned the default.css stylesheet (which I have assigned all of the proper formatting to headings 1-4 to match headings 1-4 inside of my Microsoft Word 2007 documents) under Project Settings under the Import tab. I also assigned this default.css stylesheet under WebHelp Pro. My understanding with applying the default.css stylesheet to these two places is that all of my word documents and topics should have this stylesheet applied to them.
However, when I look at each individual linked word document the default stylesheet has not been assigned and the word document is still being dictated by its own stylesheet i.e. Credit.css. On my third project, before it crashed, I manually went through all 142 word documents in the Project Manager and assigned the default.css stylesheet to them. I did this by right clicking on the topic, under Appearance, I changed the stylesheet i.e. Credit.css to default.css and clicked apply. I was immediately prompted with the two options: "Preserve modifications to this file" or "Don't show me this message again." I tried both options. The first applied the default.css stylesheet and removed the Credit.css stylesheet, but when I made a change inside of my word document and updated it inside of the Project Manager none of my changes appeared. The second did not apply the default.css stylesheet and kept my Credit.css stylesheet applied to my word document. When I made a change inside of my word document and updated it inside of the Project Manager the change appeared.
I talked about this to Kevin and he said that the individual stylesheet applied to each linked word document did not mean anything, essentially that by making the default.css stylesheet the dominant stylesheet under Project Settings under Import that the stylesheet would be applied to all of my linked word documents/topics. He also suggested that I make a change to the stylesheet like change the color of Heading 1 and link a new word document to see if it applied the changes. I tried doing this inside of my third project, but nothing changed.
I would like to know if I can assign one stylesheet to all of my linked word documents before I get too far into the fourth project and have that project crash on me too. One of RoboHelp's appealing features is to apply one stylesheet to multiple topics, or in my case 142 word documents and 9 topics. I hope that I can apply one stylesheet to all of these linked word documents because having 142 individual stylesheets is unmanageable.
Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
Roxxanne

When a word document is imported into RoboHelp project, RoboHelp generates a separate stylesheet for each word document as each word document may have its own formatting styles. In a generic scenario, word documents may be brought from different sources and may have different styling. Hence, RoboHelp allows users to preserve different styling through sepearate stylesheets.
However, for a different scenario like yours, RoboHelp allows users to override all the CSS and apply a single CSS to all the topics at the generation of output. As you have already mentioned that you have applied default.css in the WebHelp Pro SSL dialog, that should suffice and should meet your requirement of applying a single CSS to all the topics. You can verify the same at your end by linking few word files and generating the output with a single CSS applied in the SSL settings.

Patch set on sun cluster

Hi,
I have to upgrade 9.2.0.6 to 9.2.08 on sun cluster.Can you tell me in what sequence I need to install patch set? Is there any pre-requisite which I need to take care in advance?If anybody will provide me exact doc then It will be very helpful.I have seen one doc in metalink but it is not sufficient.
Thanks,

Running a Sun Cluster on one system using containers

Hello,
We would like to set up a test Sun Cluster Environment on one system using containers.
Has any one done this ? Is there documentation in the sun community on how to do this ?
Thank you

You can not install/configure a cluster just between non-global zones on the same physical node. The cluster software always needs to be installed in the global zone.
What you can do is install Solaris Cluster just on one physical node (a single-node cluster) and then you can configure native non-global zones and configure resource groups to failover between those non-global zones on the same node.
The resource group has a nodelist property, where you can configure node:zonea,node:zoneb - which will allow that RG to failover between zonea and zoneb on the same node.
A good start if your purpose is just to have a learning/development/experiment environment.

The one non-Apple device I want to hold on to is my Blackberry. Apologies - put it down to age. is it possible for me to sync Calendars? [what IS an Ical?] Contacts and Notes etc syncs easily - only Calendar problem. i do hv a Google calendar/account.

New to Mac (at 60+ years] and enjoying it. But one non-Apple device want to hold on to is Blackberry 9900. I can sync contacts, tasks - but NOT Calender. I get message telling me to set up an iCal. I have Google Calendar and happy to use that as 'hub' as it were, if that does job. Syncing my Air and smartphone is important - help please?

Another weird thing related to above question....when I first plugged in the itouch, it asked if I wanted to update the software and I did. Then it went into restore. Then the itouch itself went to a grey screen and asked me questions such as did I want to back up to icloud, use find my itouch, etc. plus it wanted my Apple sign in. I did all that. Once the itouch came on, I noticed that my daughter's music and photos were gone. So that was all good. But then at some point later when I was trying to figure out how to sync, I noticed another notice from Apple on my computer asking if I wanted to update. I assumed that was for my computer not the itouch this time. I did that. Then the itouch was back to the grey tones and the same sign in questions. Now my daughter's photos are back on it but not her music. When I click Sync, nothing happens as far as loading the music. Could this be that my music library is too big for the memory? Wouldn't it tell me that rather than just not do it? As you can see, I am very confused.
